Robert L. Hinshaw Poet Limerick

Twenty-Five Years Behind Bars

There was once a man named Barnaby Lars

     Who had spent twenty-five years behind bars

          Now it ain't what you might think

               He could concoct a great drink

                    At Clancy's Saloon smoking fine cigars
