James Horn Poet Blank verse

Oh Boucher Can You See

Oh Boucher Can you See (Pronounced Booshay.)

I was just having my breakfast for the
first time at the local junior college.
As usual, I was lambasted with another
great Horn subject, thought and idea
all at the same time. Suppose, and I 
really mean more than suppose that we
bottle up all of the air in the cafeteria.
We could take it home with us and enjoy
all of the youthful, great air at home and
keep it all to ourselves. The very air
would rejuvenate my mind and soul.
This is why Junior Colleges are called
Junior colleges. They are supposed to
rejuvenate you before heading to the 
big time. You now have become more 
mature after being exposed to a multitude
of ways of thinking and philosophies.
It is always such a pleasure being a professor.
He is a walking example of a Father Figure.
Of course, a woman one is a walking mother
figure as well who is mixed in with a father
figure. Why Maine ever let go of this guy, 
I will never know. Suppose he grew tired of
all of the chill, cold and wind mixed with so
much snow. That must be why half of Brunswick 
County, North Carolina lives here now I am
beginning to believe. Say hello to Will Rogers,
Robert Frost and Ogden Nash while you are at it.
They are the ones who have mostly inspired my
desire to write poetry. How about you?

Especially for Norman D. Boucher. M. Ed.
He even still has his Maine phone number
and lives in Wilmington and has to travel 
to Brunswick County and you know what 
this means. He is two horses of two
different colors. He lives in the Wilmington
Labor Force but works in the Brunswick
County, NC Workforce. How is that for
a dual, schizophrenic personality?
