Yes,
I dip skoal
and only smoke around fires.
I mix wicked drinks,
and write poetry every so often.
I know how to use an ax,
and I love strong women.

My dog licks my face,
and I don't mind.

Yes,
I hunt for food
fish for fun.
I'm not scared of blood
but don't enjoy pain.
I don't fight often
but I fight hard.

It snows heavy here,
and I don't mind.

Yes,
I used to write music
but don't anymore.
The only dancing I know
is slow dancing.
I'm awful passionate
about a few things.

I fall in love easy,
and I don't mind.

Passing Shadows... I'm glad to hear you and I would get along right. I'm sure we would was well.

Chalmette... Skip the bar, let's split a case of PBR down the middle. I think we'd have ourselves a time, alright.

I just read this and loved the introspection embedded in it. Your mix of strength and tenderness really makes this piece work. One of my favorites for sure.

Yo Paul,

I smoked cigars for sixty years, ever since I was 12, and never inhaled once.  It's just not done in the better circles.

I stopped smoking about a year ago, and haven't had one since.

My fair, wonderful, SEA... Uh oh, you're getting to be awful popular with me now. Copenhagen is slightly less common here. Plus, I like fine cut. It hits harder.  

Yo Robby, my main man, I don't smoke them real often, but when I do, I smoke swisher sweets at the fire.

yeah, the regular copenhagen makes a mess though. I like the long cut cause it stays put. I like the taste too. The skoal is ok in a pinch, camel has some pouches now too that apparently taste good. I haven't tried those yet. You are so adorable!

Allaboo... you're hilarious.


Sea... Say that I'm adorable? I don't dip religiously, I just do it every so often. Cigars are strictly fire-or-part-only business.

When I write my poetry It needs to be filtered thru a dark blueish smoke from a light skined Macanudo (cigar) or some mild, hand blended pipe tobacco. If none is available then the quality of my works suffers. but if the smoke is too thick to see the monitor or the ashes set the paper on fire if im working the old fashion way, then i will tone it down a bit. lol

Recieved and returned, lady SEA.

Allaboo... That's why you don't inhale them, silly. Yeah, you better hold on tight to those cats. There's nothing worse than an evil cat. I like the good ones, though.

Paul dear~
when you write like this
I have to fight the compulsion
to bring you home
and feed you biscuits.

UnboundPoetess,


I like biscuits. Biscuits and gravy is my absolute favorite breakfast food.

Thank you.
