To Store Sped Then Went To Bed

Stay and Pray Would Say No Way When I would read what he had said Poetry writing should be done by Fred; To buy supplies in store he had sped, Then stopped writing and went to bed. When he would awake the next day What we had heard to our dismay; At church stopped to stay and pray. Go again would always say no way When instead you should rather write Quaint things that are always trite What happened much to my surprise He had been awarded a Pulitzer Price.
