Two effs in your last name, is that symbolic
Or shantymickplumbdumb? Like, stop staring,
The plants on this river are not naughty
Bits like the things you painted for big cash.
I know, your flowers are just some poseys
Not sneaky hunkuspix, tres au contraire
Disputing many critics’ snide asides.
Let’s stop this drivel, put some nice brookies
In the pan. Raise your long wand, keep it stiff
-- no, wand is not symbolic for Christsake --
or a veiled statement about your Juan
-- whoever the hell he is –put your fly
on the big log, make it ride the whole length.
Stop laughing, the terms are not suggestive
And fishing with you makes me congestive.
