Human 'sprawl' affects us all. Imagine Santa after all those cookies, goodies and milk dragging his bass behind him :)!

Bass In A Sling
I’ve got my bass in a sling.
I’m towing it behind me—
dare not let go
ho-ho-ho …
'twould crush the snow.
Please don’t ask about my bass.
(Yes, something smells patoooey.)
Sling shivers so
ho-ho-ho …
one would think I’d let ‘er go.
I dare not run, shake my bass.
invite watchers to party.
I’ve too much class
ho-ho-ho …
to release that savage mass.
Way too many folks stop, ask,
“What’s in that sling on your rear?”
Hand a mirror
ho-ho-ho!
“Any clearer?”
POP!
Now I’m dragging that old bass!
Move aside and let us pass.

by T. Weber
