“MORE FOLK FROM SHOOFLY JUNCTION” by Bill Charles ~~~~ When I lived there I had a hot rod Ford, use to go like a bat out of, well you know what I mean, don’t know which was more wild that car or me, cause I use to tear up them roads with Frankie by my side, m’mmm, now there was a good looking woman… Used to go to all the small bars with dance halls in them, she didn’t do the drinking though, I did all of that, but she kept me from myself, she loved my sexy dancing if I may say so, heck wonder what ever happened to her, did hear she went to Ohio when I was in the Navy and I lost track… One night we ran into Moonshine Slim, he was the guy with the moonshine, wow that stuff was strong, put hair on a woman’s chest it would, let alone mine, offered some to Frankie one night and she took a big swallow, well I thought she was gonna faint right there, she almost stopped breathing, but she wasn’t a drinker anyway, I did take a look at her chest but didn’t see any hair there from that shine, geez… Anyway there’s so much more doings that I remember from Shoofly Junction that I may have to just keep writing about it forever and ever, well only as long as the memory works that is, but I’m sure I will never run out of stories about those folk I used to know and that live there in that little place called Shoofly Junction… ~~~~ |

Bill, I sure am enjoying your poems about the folk of shoofly junction. This is just delightful. I would have loved a ride in that ford too, and I bet you were more wild than the car. Weren't we all when we were younger, okay, maybe not  |

Bill, I'm sure glad that you can write about Shoofly Junction on and on, because I will never tire of it. It really is delightful, and I feel like I'm getting to know some of those characters you're introducing us to.....  Heart Hugs, Ethel |

Sounds like the kind of places that I remember too. I always wondered what ever happened to that hairy chested gal? Probably joined the circus. Great story. I enjoyed this alot. |

Bill I'm sure that you did a thorough check all over Frankie's body to make sure no hair was growing anywhere after drinking Slim's moonshine...I used to know a woman named Frankie when I lived in France...James |
