Gershon Wolf Poet Rhyme

A Lot of Nerve

     I prefer raw dates to most candidates
        Robert to Bill Gates
     Watching mine to lifting weights
        fewer versus more states

     Some call me a rock-ribbed conservative
        but they all have a lot of nerve
      My day is filled with uncommon verve
        in my swivel chair ~ Watch me swerve!
