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!
