My Apologies To the Elvis Fans

It has been brought to my attention by Elvis fans, not to mention a slew of phone calls from irate Elvis impersonators that my last poem was very insensitive. For that I would like to apologize. I would also like to set your minds at ease and inform you that in no way were any corpses harmed in the writing of... "Are You Lonesome Tonight" (AKA Digging On Elvis) Although Elvis didn't hold up so well on the trip back to Graceland... As luck would have it though Walmart was having a special on large trash bags. Two for one! And the environmentally friendly ones too! We all know how hard it is to find those on sale! Now where was I... Oh Yea! So we were able to get every last piece of Elvis safely back to his final resting place. Once again let me apologize for any harm I've caused the hundreds, no let's make that thousands...millions of Elvis fans and Elvis wannabes. Sincerely yours and a fan myself, Mike P.S. I'm also somewhat of an Elvis impersonator: Pass me one of them there jelly doughnuts will ya... Pretty good uh? Maybe you have to be there...
