Negative Begets the Positive

Don't you jive me no more blues
You take this my gin my booze
One here needs to get a life
Talk of Christ on my world cruise.

harry, I love this Jueju's standing waveform. Sweet serenade to help fill my cup. Whether boxcars or snakes eyes, I really can't say., let the dice roll with a shake, and land where they may. -Richard

Love the way you expressed the bad needs to be inspired by the good. Good Luck in the contest.
