Did Lenin Play Basketball…

?...where the hell did this come from...?


Poem Artwork


Not a fan,


Names not Stan,


Nor a member of the clan,


For political office I never ran…


 


Have I fallen on bad times,


Writing lousy disconnected rhymes,


Listening to the church bells chimes,


Permanently paying for past crimes…


 


I’ve not got a clue,


Any semblance of same went up the flue,


For me though that problem is nothing new,


Did Lenin play basketball in Kalamazoo…?

Amazing! Every time I drive through good old Kalamazoo, I wonder the very same thing. We must be brothers, brother. And I also always wonder - did he dunk, too??!!

Oh lill' brother, you are cracking me up!!! where in the Maria Juana fields found you that picture of the goat man giving the finger?
Red are only for bulls, so they can be mad?
