Since when did governors offer advice
on the NBA draft, teams just roll the dice
Josh Shapiro told ‘his team’
Ace Bailey’s low self-esteem
Pick him and tickets will go for half-price

Notes: NBA = National Basketball Association
Mr. Shapiro is the Governor of Pennsylvania
His team - the team he cheers for - is the Philadelphia 76ers
Ace Bailey is a good collegiate player with 'issues'

Erotic as an ape —Karl Shapiro
I am not an ape
I am simply a ghost
I am not erotic
I am simply a ghost
Once I kissed Meenie
I love Meenie Okay
But I am not erotic
I am simply a ghost

All the happiness's of her life having long since past
As all of her own lots in this life have now been cast
Seemingly so all alone in that dark and cold hospital room
Most of you too would get this sudden sense of doom
But she was not alone on that particular day
As Father Shapiro stopped by all in a moment to pray
Opening the blinds and so filling the room with light
As all the trees and birds were now revealed in sight
Yet still not a movement of sort or any such kind of sign
As Father blessed her, noting, "Mary, all will be fine"
Blessing her body with Holy Water while saying a prayer
I could just sense the Holy Spirit emanating right there
No she was not alone on this much discernible day
For the Lord Jesus had come and He had had His say
For that room was just filled with His Glory and all of His Grace
And Mary knew His Story for I could see it on her face
