Last Wish

1975

If by some power

beyond my mind's reach,

I were to lose the gift of speech,

And I had one word to say

before silence took claim,

My only wish

is to whisper your name.

And if someday

like a thief in the night,

I was crept upon

and robbed of my sight,

And I had one minute to see

by God's good grace,

I'd spend it gazing

at your beautiful face.

And if one day

before my death,

I were to learn

I'd soon be deaf,

If the good Lord

gave me a choice,

I'd spend my time

hearing only your voice.

If I were to lose

the feel of touch on my skin,

I'd thank God I could still

touch souls within,

But if I had

an extra minute of time,

I'd spend it feeling

your lips on mine.

When I die

and leave you & your charms,

My only wish

is to die in your arms.

The Bitch

1975 Rhoda meets Jim

He wakes with a roar

and before you're warned,

He beats down your door,

Yea, shit over warmed.

Ask him anything

and "I DON'T GIVE A DAMN!"

is the song he'll sing,

like only he can.

He'll bitch about life,

He'll bitch about death,

No cares for other's strife,

if he has a bitching breath.

"Do me a favor, Jim"

Hell, don't waste your time,

He'll say "Hell NO!"

not maybe,

"Your troubles are not mine."

Well yea, Mr. Cooper,

You've got a mean mouth,

But ya ain't got a clean swoop,

Cuz ya ain't the worst in the south.

Bitch at me Babe,

and I'll bitch right back,

Soon will come the day

When I'm gonna knock you flat.

But for now I'm mild

Sweet as fresh grass,

And until I go wild,

Just kiss my ass!!

Unbelievable I would go on to marry this guy not once but twice!
