Bones knows
what he looks like.  
He has a mirror.  

He doesn’t mind the sight.  

There’s nothing
he can do about it
anyway.  

When he’s there
on the street
hawking it,
he‘s always
thinking to himself.  

“Yo—what you see
is what you get.”

Bobby

There is so much more to Bones than his outward appearance!

Thanks dear Ida,

For your kind words.  Everyone should think like Bones--humble, but inwardly proud.

Love Bobby

Thanks dear M,

What you say is very true of everyone of us.

Bones says thanks, he needed that.

Love Bobby
