Sounder of pigs
ruined golf course
coming to you...

Tick tock tinkle time's
slowly slipping softly
away always acting accurately
sounder sough sounds
each eager executed

I have a favourite type of girl,
Nothing wrong with that
I love my ladies ample
Like beautiful Fat pat
Also Porkus Dorcas
And Obese Louise,
Glandular Angela
Gives me a good squeeze
I love voluminous
I love them rounder
I love them full bodied
Because rounder is sounder...

Call me a Poet,
but I’m just a writer
these words that I breathe
respoken much later 
Call me a Poet,
my couplets in rhyme
each stanza to shorten
with meaning sublime
Call me a Poet,
my retinue sounder
to live by the moment
my squares getting rounder
Call me a Poet,
I’ll call you the same
if one phrase you’ll tender
—attached to your name

you walked into my world
wearing a cast 
warm witty greeting
my third grade class
joseph medill school
nineteen hundred seventy one
the movie sounder debut
down town chicago
sensitive timid and shy was i
you were a rainbow
quite noble to my eye
a spoken chalice my heart ran
my soul escaped it seems 
landing right into 
my future hopes 
my future dreams
ah as i awakened 
wise and free 
you were within 
the wonder of me...

I’d almost forgotten
 
how you make the sun shine brighter

as you did yesterday 

taking  me back into your life

Where once I’d stomped my clumsy way

blundering on to blunder yet again

yes, while loving you,

but far less deserving than

I thought myself to be. 

 Despite your knowledge of my truths

you made a sounder, happier, more contented man

 than existed yesterday 

before you forgave me....
