A poem by Thomas W. Talley

Master Is Six Feet One Way

________________________________________________
Title:     Master Is Six Feet One Way
Author: Thomas W. Talley [More Titles by Talley]

Mosser is six foot one way, an' free foot tudder;
An' he weigh five hunderd pound.
Britches cut so big dat dey don't suit de tailor,
An' dey don't meet half way 'round.

Mosser's coat come back to a claw-hammer p'int.
(Speak sof' or his Bloodhound'll bite us.)
His long white stockin's mighty clean an' nice,
But a liddle mō' holier dan righteous.
