My dad was much better than all your dads: smarter,
kinder, more gentle, listened, could beat your dad up,
could drive with one hand, whistle-in screech owls,
quote bible verses, give advice, spank me with a
razor strop, loved Shakespeare, go out for the Xmas
tree on Xmas Eve to get a cheap one, distribute the
body and blood of Christ to them who wanted it, watched
football 3 inches away from the tv screen, studied birds
and the Gospel of John, fell asleep at the dining room
table, turned a hot shower to cold in the mornings and
what a loud hullaballoo he made...
