Guns and Hoses

GUNS and HOSES A charitable fight Police and firemen Passing blows through the night. Having fun. Drinking some. Striking their punches hard. Pow! Thud! Rolling eyes! Numb. My, oh, my! Rugged sight. Competitive punching. First hit left. Next, strike right. Good compassionate fight. Raising money for blight. Passion at home that night! Nine months later, the sight. Four firemen’s babies Birthing on the same night. One question still remains. Did police likewise play? Ooh, La! La! Fun. And games. © Dane Ann Smith-Johnsen 11-22-09 Dedicated to: Some good hearted firemen. But, I'll never tell where!!! GRINNING!

There ought to be a law against such games, Dane. Oh no, wait, the law is playing the game. LOL Very funny! At least they're "fighting" for a good cause! Love, Carolyn
