The Revolt of the Garden Statues

The garden gnome said

I am tired of smiling like an idiot with my wheelbarrow

the plaster Venus said

I am cold and I would like a coat

the pink plastic flamingo said

I would like to see the ocean for real

So they left the garden

The gnome went to work in a coal mine

Venus signed up with a modeling agency

the pink flamingo bought a plane ticket to the tropics

The owner of the garden was very angry

he said

Where is the respect for property

He replaced the statues

with security cameras

and his garden became very safe

and very sad.
