Happy (almost) Thinks-Gimme

“giving” is

written,

but “gimme” is said,

a roundin’,

a shorthand,

that’s uttered—not read,

and uttered,

like butter,

it melds what is meant,

the skinny’s–

a gimme,

and certain to spread,

just gimme

a second,

to list,

and to pen,

the chance is,

that time will

be very well-spent,

else gimme,

3 steps,

of head-start

to wend,

to hightail,

like Skynard,

of song

recommends,

and gimme

a high-five,

for mentioning them,

or gimme

a 4

. . .

for’gimme
