In the Thick Night: a poem
by One-shot Reimer
alias Dougy One-shot
brenda
gerder
did
a murder
in
the month of may
the
man she killed
was
often billed
a
thin man during day
she
hated how
he
hated cow
and
hated women more
so
one day late
just
at the gate
she
struck him to the floor
it
was no feat
he
ate no meat
he
stood nigh six foot six
no
thinner man
no
slimmer man
no
lard was in the mix
she
hit him hard
with
no regard
for
where the blow would fall
it
knocked his pate
with
all his weight
he
buckled and cried "lord!"
she
curtsied once
and
with a bounce
she
sashayed out the door
his
being thin
was
just not in
she
thought as she left there
next
time be nice
to
girls with lice
keep
on your underwear
that
is the tale
of
thin man bill
of
how he got his pay
for
skipping meat
avoiding
teat
he
got no day in court
