He was so grumpy they asked for him to leave.

Ever so slowly he looked up in a manner you wouldn't believe.

"Your look so dour, and your face so sour, other customers have begun to grieve."

"And have asked for you to leave"

"I've been sour here for years, surely grant me this one reprieve?"

"I'm sorry sir, it's time for you to leave."
