Honky-Tonk
There were some great haiku last week about secret talents! I loved finding out that the Medievalist can bake bread, that Jill Scoggins makes intriguing-sounding ornaments, that Silly American can parallel park, and that Christine is making book trees. (I already knew that Gavin could write haiku, but it was still a good poem).
The epic for this week, though, comes from Tall Tenor, who teaches opera in Texas (necessary context to understand this poem):
Singing I can do.
Not so much guitar playing.
But I will get it!
Country-western songs
Played in a honky-tonk bar
Make me laugh and cry.
