a poem
A chapter in the book People
Joe Jerome
Gentle giant Joe Jerome
seldom ever left his home
a little shack called Honeycomb
just outside the ville
Joe was born a burly boy
filled his mama's life with joy
treated her like Myrna Loy
though she was ment'ly ill
First time Joe left Honeycomb
his mama choked on bubbly foam
died because of a misnom-
that Alka-Seltzer was a pill
So Joe now swears to never leave
he stays at Honeycomb to grieve
and beg his mama, "Pweez (sniff) bweev"
but she never will
