DADDY YOU ARE NO LONGER

DADDY     YOU  ARE  NO  LONGER  IMPERSONATING    MATTER

Elvis died today  in 77   My father in 89

3:16 was the time  of death   I marked it

by sublimating my grief at H&M   Of this

I am not  proud  But I will say it loud and

clear  here   at 4:16 p.m. August 16, 2012

 

Daddy’s black hair  blue eyes   and

Paul Newman  cool   make me a fool

for every Elvis impersonator   in town 

 

Even though his eyes   were a deadly blackish  brown

COME LAY ACROSS MY KNEES

COME LAY ACROSS MY KNEES        ANXIOUS LADY FROM DOWNTOWN

Lance is the High Priest of upholstery
Wept when I said that my mother had
blessed him   Fixed our chairs in a day
For $339 he gave me foam seats and
re-upholstered my soul   Lance said:

You sigh too much   You give too much
You can be one of my flock   Lay down
on that threadbare chair  and I will
make you sing   a different tune

By noon tomorrow you will be brand
spanking new   or my name isn’t
Lance The Custom Upholsterer
