A Ha'Sonnet Will Do
Give me my bone!
A spooky tale
of ghostly moan
and lady frail
Read as a child
Thought it was wild
Best bit? TAKE IT!

The Stone Butch Blues
played Cassidy’s
with such enthused
audacity
the place went nuts
as their hot cuts
devoured the hours

Happy endings
are all alike
touched with tendings
towards a big strike
for the good side
And bad’s denied
before their score
