The Partners (Long John, Toe & 'Deer
By Larry Chadwick


Long John, Toe & ‘Deer planned to set up business,
They wanted to operate their own shop.
All had done it on their own,
But each had been a flop.

So they scheduled their first meeting,
At the local corner pub.
They’d have done it somewhere else,
But couldn’t afford the uptown club.

Besides it gave them access to a tab,
Established by their generous friend named Ron.
They failed to get his permission,
As he was not around, he had gone.

They started out so serious,
In their efforts to create,
A business plan that,
They could actually operate.

But the rounds of drinks,
Quickly added up,
As they tipped their hands,
And deeply they did sup.

The night grew late,
And time had whiled away.
They had to have a plan,
That had to happen that day.

And that is how the escort plan,
Came into being on that very night.
The boys were drunk and desperate,
Yet they knew it wasn’t right.

Magnetic signs were made,
Promoting Escorts “R” Us, LTD (Long John Ag, Toe Rag & ‘Deer)
They expected they’d be rich,
And could hardly wait to see.

But things went bad,
They seemed to have no luck.
Their only source of transportation,
Was the Parks Department truck.

February 5, 2004

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Then Larry "C"
Called on me
To get a date for late that night
But all our girls just up and "hurled"
When they saw his awful sight.

That's why his wife has cut him off
To once a month "together"
But that's not so bad, but it's sad
She cut off all his friends forever!

Chris,


Duncan,
That's a good one...

Grover,
Hope you're enjoying it.

iliana,
And I think I caught them off guard.

'Deer,
As long as you're picking up the tab, I'm there!

You read before you words I write-
See before you my soul,
spinning on  waves of thought,
painting memories of time
