My name is Matt, write a poem for me Charge me ten cents and set up a table Please sign your name it’s worth lots you see Sign one for Suzy sign one for Mable You our fond idol you whom we worship We rave and we roar. Girls tear their shirts And each one desires to kiss your sweet lips And nag you to write of love till it hurts Then we all parted and went our own ways Some went to college and some went to jail You my good friend never cease to amaze You write poems still hearty and hale On the street corner dirty and dingy I found you with friends you always did like At your feet some relation of Benji Write me a poem and I’ll spare you an Ike Oh where did they say they found Mister Poe? Fallen in the street of old Baltimore “Congestion of brain” don’t think we’ll e’er know If that's the fine wine bleeding through pores My odoriferous colleague please rise! Stand up, brush off, kick the organ grinder Surely as back then when we would surmise You were born to make e’en rainbows kinder Who’s gotta dime For this friend of mine!!!

Walt... At your feet some relation of Benji HAHAH Sorry - that just gets me...that is cool. And this: Oh where did they say they found Mister Poe? Fallen in the street of old Baltimore “Congestion of brain” don’t think we’ll e’er know If that's the fine wine bleeding through pores Is rather profound-like... Me likes this one..me does...

Walt, These days you can get a lot for ten cents. Very different, very vivid poetry. I like it. Kethry Growth demands a temporary surrender of security. Gail Sheehy |

Walt, From deep within your "wayout" psyche you write poems that we all like(y). Perhaps the "masters" you have read ?, before you were dropped on your head? Great stuff ! Doc |
