and I would contemplate on occasion, ms horony
the preference by your bosom for presidents
how your amble apples would cleft them
into some sweetly perspired seduction
that gathered the glances of careless cowboys
soon to whittle their mementos to my colt handles

I was often perplexed beyond my sippable laudanum
why you didn't cascade your curls over those stacks
of fingerable double eagles waiting your dainty digitry
perhaps the jingling was like church bell salvation
that made the scent of wrinkle green tattoos more hedon
since our sins were something more sacred then forgiveness

ah my kate on the wrist, my sweet forney kate
my liquor of sweet alabaster, bring us our glasses
lest we lose the way back to our oblivion again
let me tell you of myths and miracles in latin
and recite you poems from the horseless byron
bring us a new deck of sinners too if handy

and I shall impeach some of your recent presidents

Needs to go back to the top for another look...

some really great word play in this and you capture elements of the character Doc was quite well I think.
