*****
In Kansas City, there’s a witty ditty spinner,
Rhymes for dimes, poetic crimes…one dollar,
Sings a song and dances for his dinner,
Angelic prose from such a retched sinner,
Perched upon the porch, Grackle cackling,
Pecks away at paint and cracked up spackling…

Yes. I landed that dream writing job I've been looking for since Sept of last year.
What a relief!

He is back! He is back!
The poetry forum has not been the same without you. I love this last line: "Pecks away at paint and cracked up spackling". Don't understand all the words, but am going to look them up immediately.

Glad to see you here again TD. It makes me think of a lot of big city street performers. I like Grackle cackling a lot. It has a good sound to it.

This is great! It has a lovely 'absence' of logic to it that makes it a delight to read. It is one of the best I have read here for a long time. Thank you for posting
