A fellow refused to eat crow

A fellow refused to eat crow
by Rick Lime


A woman refused to eat crow
A character weakness? P’rhaps so
But inconsequential
To her existential
And meaningless wait for Godot

A fellow refused to eat crow
For a very good reason, he'd show
Both his foot and a bird
In his mouth, was absurd
Clearly, one of the two had to go

A woman refused to eat crow
For the row that she'd chosen to hoe
And she carried with grace
Every line in her face
While she reaped every seed that she'd sow

Dick Morris refused to eat crow
He’s been wrong umpteen times in a row
But for him to admit
That he’s been full of sh#t
Would compel him cojones to grow

A fellow refused to eat crow
And for him this was quite apropos
Crow’s unclean, unlike pigeon
Based on his religion
Leviticus ‘leven or so
