Soup City

I'm just an old cow-poet and I hang my pencil low It helps me to draw it faster than anyone I know If you come to town to fight You had better think again 'Cause I can pull my pencil out before you click your pen YeeeeeeeeHaaaaaaaaaa!!

Well this caused me to laugh out loud and scare the sleeping dog out of his 'wits' to jump up and bark; which then gave me a fright! Your word imagery is very well done. Congratulations!
