Notes About The Poem
This is not me..I like the movie called " Something To Talk About"..I got the idea from a scene in the movie..

On the Public Square

There once was an old man from Thomaston Who was lying, cheating son-of-a-gun Out in public on the square Nailed was he in open air Still dodging bullets as swiftly runs
