strike through or stick to your gun there’s gum on a shoe no carpets no caps   one fact that matters when a bicycle flattens cann’d pumpkin patches   don’t throw tomatoes till the tornadoes touch down wound up in rummage

twenty Silver Times more of the old ones renew magazine issues   flip through em’ry board that’s not a fashion O dear April’s more curly   the buds on the vine remember I surely do almost a tulip

how many loose links no-1 maid-new a sand-witch yellow mustard field   cowbells to foghorns shooting stars haylodes draggin’ giants overalls   a wish that is true in the blue bluer bluest forth now well beyond

I’ll keep the T-shirts of Astarte & Ishtar for the good weather   ‘tho the ant farmers really too near a mothball are lookin’ sluggish   I want a comet a tiara for Amy you call-up Emmy

who wedg’d a wood chair to block the lock’d closet door I cannot get out   for the meet and greet but you do have nice clothes and pretty moth balls   I’ll make a window somehow in the west wall and see you sundown
