Poetry for the Enlightened Few.
Crossroads 70 miles South of Atlanta
Nothing for another 100 miles
One store on each side of the road
“They’re fixin’ to come,” said the one old fellow
Who owned the first store
“Nefarious bunch” said the other owner
What do we do?
Sell them two gallons
Tell them that’s all we got
When they run out of gas it’ll back up traffic for 150 miles
They ran out of gas
Traffic backed up
$400 in groceries became $4,000 worth of merchandise
Let’s hope we have more ammo…
