Got people to rebuke And poetry to write. Ain’t got time to chat; I’m everyday up to the bat, A thing that I do not crave, To correct and teach to behave. Can’t help a fellow’s calling, What might seem quite appalling, But a fella got to do what he got to do; Got to […]
No mask tyranny! This is a pro-choice matter. Can’t folks can’t figure out what is “mandatable” and what is not? Apparently not! Seat belts, masks, medicines, menus, neighborhoods, vacation destinations, employment, theater: these are all matters of CHOICE.
