Bones won’t join the middle class. He’s met too many of them in his work. Bones won’t join the middle class. He’s got this idea they’re kind of phony. Bones won’t join the middle class. He knows they don’t want him anyway. Bones won’t join the middle class. He’s been locked-up way too many times. Bobby |

I think the jail sentence on your records is a tax on the poor. only poeple with money can afford a lawyer to get rid of the coviction from your work. very sad. -Juju |

Thanks dear Juju, What you say is very true. All of a sudden, people think Bones is dangerous. Of course nothing could be further from the truth. Bones thanks you for your understanding. Love Bobby |

Thanks James, I'm glad you liked the poem. The tax people treat me pretty good because I'm poor and old. I never mind paying taxes. It's the least I can do to help support this lovely country. Bobby |
