You Can RIDE
The River
Or WATCH
From the Shore.

Doesn't Really
Matter.

He Could Be Never Knew What
Could have been never knew what;
Heard from team he had been cut;
Boat that shows; (Showboat)
Temper throws,
And could not keep big mouth shut.
Jim Horn
Sometimes,
You Win
Because
YOU'RE NOT
The Underdog...
Expected, Because
You Are Superior,
Not As A Show,
No "Showboat,"
Nothing...
And That’s Good.
Expected.
Maybe...
Suspense Is Suspected,
It Makes The Best Show.
Which Is GOOD.

OH, JULY…..you showboat
Barging in…with a bang
Flags and fireworks
Flowers and tears
A grand party
Celebrating our INDEPENDENCE
From those who tried
To restrain our FREEDOM
Oh, July, let Us always remember
Those who ignited the fire
Tended the flames
Mended our oft-tattered flag

wither
away not
to thee gifts reason
of art
wingless dove bestilled
on halfpace empyreal thy breast behooves
thee further
o'er yond clingiest fairgrounds
moor dawning flora
promising showboat sanctifying lightness
up from their beds and
to their feds and down
to their peds
all the same maternally presence clement
intimate cavernous fire claimants contest
a fleeting gesture
of unattainable love
The second house this year to go under in Atlantic City.
This is a scenario that does not look too pretty.
A once venerable establishment will soon be history.
The future of gaming is now obscured with doubt.
In the big crap game of business, they have just sevened-out.
We will be bidding farewell to the esteemed Showboat.
They have tooted their last horn with a sour note.
After August 31, that will be all she wrote.
