Bp Will Show No Shame: Written For Paula Swanson

It's not my fault.
The oil just wants out!
It's no ones fault
Things happen, sludge is in the current.

I'm not to blame,
Really, I don't know!
Yacht racing brings fame
So I had to go!

You have no proof!
Who can say, who done it?
So who should fix the leaking "roof"?
BP will get around toit!

I will show no shame
I am not to blame!
That's how I roll this game!
My fifteen minutes of fame.

For Paula's contest--had to get on BP in the process!!

Great write that should be in the winner's circle..I don't think that I have looked at this contest...I am resting from them somewhat for a few days or so...If I get some written, okay, if not, okay..I am just fine except for what's been bothering me for a long time..Mom
