Remember
Him with words
Charcoaled 
On a tile

"Begorrah" 
Sure, by God 
Kathleen
You're a beauty

Unkempt 
Thick blonde hair
Tangled
Between my fingers

Green
Wide unblinking eyes
Pierce
My very soul

Press
Yourself into me 
Celebrate
Your new freedom

The hem of my dress
Is not quite straight
Bugger!

Standing at this angle
My legs look bowed
Damn!

This is unflattering
For a figure like mine
Crap!

I look like a pencil
But mirror is warped
Yes!

"Pa?"
"Hoss?" answered Ben

"Little Joe!"
"Hoss!" replied Joe

"Adaaammm..!" 
"Yea?" sighed Adam 

"My goddam Levis ain't on the line"
"Watch the language" said Ben
"Sorry Pa"
"Don't do it again"

"Hop Sing!" shouted Joe
"He's the cook" muttered Ben

"Wash days blues
At Ponderosa again"
