Mister Crumbteazze
Bone
might you exit the steak
what fatted edge
will make gravy?
what fatted edge
will grease the
hotted plate.
and steam the
stems of cauliflower
so that they might dine
in the elegance of
Summer
those nights
of Love
those nights
of togetherness
steak how thick are you?
pound by pound
steak were are you
discounted and
mine.
oh might I dine!
oh might I dine!
puff!
puff!
Great Cigars!
Sip!
Sip!
Sweet
Expensive Wine!
