JUST ASK OLD BILL

Folder: 
JOURNAL #19

release carries with it

an unconscionable sin

or so our numerous religions

would have one to believe

judicial waiver

in this old two for the public

pony case

could never have

even for one moment been

the best consideration

yet

laughably enough

but in a rather grim tone

I guess one could say

the den now seems to be coming

to the mole

though do be most wary

when nearest to home

for the fox is on the proverbial trot

(or should one rather supplement that

thought with say an elephant)

and though more often than not

politics make mean and messy bed partners

still

A good cigar

can cost a man an awful lot

namely his livelihood
