is cheap as a bottle of wine
that I buy at the nickel-and-dime. And it gives
me a big head. What will you serve tonight? White lies

or a red herringer? Whatever the flavor your mouth
is derringer. You shoot the **** right on cue
like a professional playing pool. Eying what ball

he’ll drop in the pocket. Seeing what doll will shine up
his rocket. It hasn’t launched in years. You can’t
see it over that paunch hanging there. Maybe a joey will

jump out. I wouldn’t be surprised, myself.  Instead of
your shoes you should get your mouth polished. You could
lose a few pounds if your words were abolished. Just think of
the peace and quiet without the one-man riot.
