ex-INTERN

by Hal Bogotch

Shut out

left out

locked out

clocked out

give a shout out

to center, right, and left out

blocked out

turned out

who put the lights out

after a hard start downtown

it smarts to feel smacked down

mighty teen angst

pounds out big sound

on big momma bass drum

whack 'n' take a crack

hit it like no turnin' back

what we gotta give

oughta be acceptable

gift from heart

immeasurable

givin' time and life

no magazine

no book o' the month club

readin' & digestin'

fast-forwardin' the overdub

what we tryin' to say

in a rhythmic way

is when you get no welcome mat

you ain't gotta take that

go find a place to express

it might come from pen or mouth

findin' freedom north & south

bust on out

no need to tie up

all the loose ends

nothin' glitters like friends.

All we are saying, is give Pence a chance! (Sorry, John & Yoko.)
