Three people in a flash storm

BOY
We’ve not had a storm for ages!!
Look at the garden drain! It’s like
an ocean pouring over the grass!
The BBQ looks like a jet ski!
Oh wow! I could have a shower
in the garage with all of my toys.

MAN
Shit, the garage is flooding!

POET (same man)
I wonder how much it would cost
to pay a couple of plumbers
to surf through my possessions.
