I asked yew not ta leve me,
But, yew went ahed an dunnit,
Ya even took my credit card,
And in the red ya runnit.
One thing I can tell you now,
You really mashed my hart,
But messin with my pickup truck,
That wuz the meanist part,
You didn't take my huntin dog,
And its a real good thing,
Cause weez goin huntin yew,
When it comes round spring.




 How much more grievous are the consequences of anger than the causes of it. -Marcus Aurelius

How kin yew say these things to me
didn't I luv you constantly
didn't I scratch your itchy back
didn't I paint this 'ere shack

You got the best years of my life
and never even called me wife
you alwis luved that dog mor'n me
to now yew've got him not me

If he can cook, I'll be switch'd
maybe yew can both get hitched
'cuz I ain't gonna be around
I got me a fireman that I found!


I liked your poem!

I cooked yer grits,
mixed with cheese,
brought yer beer
anytime you pleased.

I rolled your cigs
with that crappy tobaccy,
Gave ya a can to spit in
but ya still weren't happy.

I let that flea bag sleep
at the foot o' our bed,
an' I only kicked him
once in the head.

I make possum stew,
it's the best in town.
but ya still git in the truck
to go cattin' around.

found out all about you
and one eyed emma,
heard about the night
with those alabama slammers.

late night lovin'
down in the swamp,
didn't think I knew
about this romp?

I'll have you know,
I'm smarter than that!
so I burned yer boots
and crushed yer hat.

Yore poultry runs the gamut, shore,
an' tonite ah bin injoyin'
how yore stringin' yore words
in perty verse
an' beeutifull rhymes, employin'.

But ah hafta admit Ah'm wonderin' why
yew'd wate til spring's a'sprangin'
tew run off yonder after that there girl
when it's NOW she's left yew hangin'???

(clever poem, by the way)

Damn nice poem,
Sounds like home,
Ya done good,

If I dint know better,
Ya could be Mr. Thirty.
