The International Cookoff Contest

would you say tomorrow
if the day would go way
does time stand still
to hear what people say
is it right to speak me as yours
what is now
if today is yours

To endure
to pull it through
to laugh at apin
to  make it through
than honor those
who challenged me
to stand victorious
for a world to see

bit the nail
to chew it up
spit it out
and say it was tough
to see the woman
who wants a man
to fall on my knee
and say I'm her man
