….
The mother of someone
was onetime a flame.
The father, a cowboy
seeking his fame.
And someone will grow up
to do the same thing.
She might say,
“I’ll throw up!”
Exclaim his disclaim.
Yet, that’s how it ends up:
Familiar the ring,
When someone then takes up
the same thing again.
Beware!
Lest ye become
that which avers thee.
