A Kind of Kin

Just another night in the dim pub light
When McJock sat up close to McGee
There, at the bar, drinking both from a jar
Laughing and slapping their knees

When came from Jock's throat, a more serious note
A question he posed to McGee
"If I went to your house and made love to your wife
And she had a baby, by me
Since your wife and I mated, would that make Us related,
It boggles my mind Half Again,
Beyond 'magination but by my estimation
Is it possible that we could be Kin"


McGee thought awhile, then turned with a smile
Said   "I don't tink so, and it's time I was leavin' 
But dere's one ting for sure dat no one can ignore
It most certainly would make us both even"
