Daver Austin Poet Tanka

Big Jack

BIG JACK

“Big Jack’s Chevrolet!”
That’s Big Jack talking his cars
He is pathetic!
Jack has a hyena voice
Uses hands to make a point

It’s one of two things –
He’s too tight to pay a pro
(thinks he’s just as good)
Or    he loves to see himself
Big Jack    on TELEVISION!

Elizabeth Wesley January 2, 2012 at 8:54 AM I've dealt with one of these in the past, had greasy hair too. You give a great picture of what most of them are like.

Michelle Mac Donald May 7, 2011 at 9:02 AM Very witty write, Daver! We don't get "Big Jack" with his yap here.:) Obviously no a favorite of yours. Doesn't sound like he'd be great to advertise his product. However, he has cetainly caught your attention, in a most invasive way..lol Best wishes to you!! Mikki

James Foulk April 6, 2011 at 7:11 PM we have car dealers like that here also. it is so funny as this piece you wrote. enjoyed it.

Elaine George March 31, 2011 at 6:35 PM You paint a vivid halarious picture with this one, Daver. Lainie

Doris Culverhouse March 31, 2011 at 2:31 PM funny....we all know a big jack-ass

Carolyn Devonshire March 31, 2011 at 12:03 PM Very witty and clever, Daver. We have similar commercials here. Sometimes folks like "Big Jack" DO just want to see themselves on TV. But it's even worse when they make their children appear in the ads. You get the feeling these children are expecting to launch a movie career. Fun poem!! Love, Carolyn

Andrea Dietrich March 29, 2011 at 11:21 PM hahaha, that word at the bottom! Is this a guy you have to endure on your tv late nights, DAver? Yep, they sure come up with some kooky stuff!!
