A Story to Tell

Should I tell you how I got here,

more than likely you would say,

Oh, that ain’t nothin’ I’ve got a

hell of a story to tell you. And,

I would probably agree that you

do. But let me begin by saying

my trip was as slick as sailin’

down I-70 on a Sunday afternoon

in June. No traffic, not a vehicle

4-wheeled or more to be seen

headed East or West. Slicker than

snot on a brass door knob, I tell

you, the likes of which you may

have never seen in your entire

lifetime before. Now, go on ahead.

It’s your turn. Give me all you got.

Must be a powerful story too. I can

plainly see you must‘ ve been run

over lots of times on the highway

you took gettin’ here.

Now, I’m no beauty to look at. With

that most folks will surely agree.

But to you, my friend, I extend my

sincerest sympathy.
