Honky Tanka
You in the corner,
that neon Budweiser sign
lighting up your face—
how’s about I buy us one
& see how far it takes us?

its title
As you might suspect, Jim, the title came first and the poem wrote itself 😏

Btw have I told you how much I love your profile picture? Fabulous, not to mention very lifelike 😏
I somehow breezed past the title and read the poem, which has such a playful mood and great selection of detail.
Then I read the title and laughed out loud.
Wonderful, Jason! That was indeed the plan. I seem to have morphed from Debbie Downer on Lexpomo into class clown this year, and I love it!
love the through and through brashness
❤️
your floozie era..

The title reminds me of this children’s book, The Wonky Donkey… it’s all rhymy, and in part of it the donkey listens to country music. “He was a honky tonky winky wonky donkey.”
Wow! A must read!
Brilliant !!!! Just simply brilliant !!!!!!
Thanks Coleman!

Great title. Like the “how’s about” — familiar, fun.
