Sleepin' wif da fishies...

CARMINE “SLICK” PATCH
Newark,NJ

"Put some heavy things in your
trunk to improve your car's traction
in snow. For convenience and
density, you can't beat a couple of
dead guys in cement overshoes."


Poem Artwork

A style of shoe well worn,

Because against them in court you’ve sworn,

If you’re lucky you will be reborn,

Cement galoshes hold you down where the water ain’t warm…

 

Lucky you are if you are dead prior,

Better off you would be then surely,

Some though go cement shoe diving,

Still breathing, to the bottom,

Before to heaven they go arriving…

 

The best advice one can give,

To keep you happy with your family to live,

Is not to on the mob rat,

For they do very little forgive,

And that as they say is that…
