a debt is owed to those of you
who write so clean and pure and true
inspiring me through and through
washing away shades of grey and blue
t’was as if you’d always knew
the way to build me up anew
like a cobbler designing a shoe
you spoke to me as I changed and grew
i lost to taste for rotten shrew
and threw away memories not of you
until I sat alone, hair askew
wondering what next I would do
then came a flash that skewered me through
I was only able to muster a ‘mew’
as the realization came that this could never undue
the great Ric Flair and his infamous “Woooooo”
the point is, if I can get real here, crew
it’s important to me, the writing you do
this comes from my heart so it has to be true
I hope you all have a day under skies sunny and blue –
