Hillbilly Dictionary
Sundin Richards

  

Here’s the fat
guy hit with a
cannon ball
and the most
information we
can gather is
a chunk of time
saying Roanoke
not mad but be
wildered
on a farm or
in a gutter do
we not love Lydia
the tattooed lady
with revolvers and
snowballs among
scrub by a highway
in the middle of the
night
then you’re looked
at like a villain
hanging around
the steps of a music
school in this way
all that can be said
with a straight face
is oops
