I wanna live in Texas, near Brownsville
And sling a backhoe in the noonday sun
Slide my arms out a Texas windowsill
Slow sip whiskey with cowgirls who like fun
Serve up some sleep under the Lone Star chill
Yay, Texas, yay, until your days are done
Something’s off! My muse has taken a spill
Wait! Hold on! Not Texas! TAXES! I meant to say
Lower that damn marginal rate today!
Care not for Dallas nor guys named Ray-Ray
Cease (and desist), Uncle Sam, and let me keep my pay!

Freedom ebbs and flows and is hard to keep
Especially when sheep make it repeat...
Sonnet - "I'm S-Sor-- I'll Do Better Next Time"

I’ll be better at this year’s bash, I vouch
Last time, my déclassé words made you cry...
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them, but you are bearing up under the strain. How glad I am to have found you and subscribed to you scribe.
