Our precocious daughter, swathed in leather, first tattoo
in view below her crop top, reached out and grabbed a few
peanuts from the table and demanded, “Amirite?”
Crumbled off the peanut shells and took a hungry bite.
She had argued that a motorbike was the best solution
to getting her to school with minimum pollution.
(Our driving her to school, consuming so much gas,
creates carbon monoxide at a level that’s most crass.)
“Umitebee” said her father, and I nodded my accord.
As her sole benefactors, just what we could afford
influenced our decision, and instead of motorbike,
we simply told our daughter to go and take a hike!
Prompt words are benefactor, leather, precocious, and amirite,
am·i·rite: exclamation ,INFORMAL, US am I right? (used to invite confirmation or assert that one’s previous statement is correct) “not much point to it now, amirite?”
Haha. This is perfect

Yes. The Amirite was a puzzler at first.

I almost dismissed it as ridiculous this morning before deciding to just throw it in somewhere.
