Snowman Frosts Neighbors

A Hayden, Idaho, man agreed to knock down his snowman after Sheriff’s deputies warned he could be charged with creating a public nuisance. Neighbors complained about the snowman, which resembled a Klansman holding a rope tied in a noose.



          S’no Way To Act

A snowman resembling the Klan
Brought grief for an Idaho man;
The law said the noose
Constituted abuse
And wasn’t a very good plan.

Seems each resident of the fair town
Looked on the deed with a frown.
None of his neighbors
Cared much for his labors;
So his snowman came tumble-ing down.
