Poem: Boy About 10

Lyrics

Boy about ten Tattered Lee's overalls and brown shoes turned up with the toes Winchester pump action .22 scarred by chaparral Stinking dead horse alive with flys Rusting hulk of '35 Roadster Running in circles, firing Breathless Running more Down the slopes to the meadow Absolutely exhausted, delirious Ass hits hard ground Gets cut crossing the barbed wire fence Chased by the corpse of the shooting gallery Circled some more Merry-go-round The painting A child with the lion in the sylvan field Fat boosters throwing rocks at the rattlesnake Dervish stance Xylophones rattle as the snake whirls, then slows to stupid circling
