To Hicks In the Sticks
His name is Timothy Hicks
His work sure gives me the kicks
He is a great sage
Despite his young age
He shows us poetry’s tricks
He has an ambitious mind
His posts are ever so kind
He’s special to me
And that’s plain to see
I hope a sweet girl he’ll find
If she will mess with his brain
I’ll beat her up with my cane
I’ll make her regret
That she made him fret
I’ll give her neck a good sprain
Dear Hicks, speak up and speak out
Be sure your words have much clout
You’ve got a great take
Conventions to break
You know what life is about!
“Keep writing” is what I say
We’ll see a new break of day
Where all will be right
Our future so bright
“Be faithful,” is what I pray!
