Poem for People from Rhode Island

Say drawer say sawhorse say
motherfucker make a mean ass poem
say shit and spit and
smoke a cigarette like a joint

Say water say awning say morning
time Pawtucket Camaro engines
rev spandex so sorry red beach-
ball sized Christmas bulbs on every

lawn (yawn) yeah it’s wicked tacky
