<A PT I>
<B 1>
HUFFY HENRY HID   THE DAY,
UNAPPEASABLE HENRY SULKED.
I SEE HIS POINT,--A TRYING TO PUT THINGS OVER.
IT WAS THE THOUGHT THAT THEY THOUGHT
THEY COULD DO IT MADE HENRY WICKED & AWAY.
BUT HE SHOULD HAVE COME OUT AND TALKED.
ALL THE WORLD LIKE A WOOLEN LOVER
ONCE DID SEEM ON HENRY'S SIDE.
THEN CAME A DEPARTURE.
THEREAFTER NOTHING FELL OUT AS IT MIGHT OR OUGHT.
I DON'T SEE HOW HENRY, PRIED
OPEN FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE, SURVIVED.
WHAT HE HAS NOW TO SAY IS A LONG
WONDER THE WORLD CAN BEAR & BE.
ONCE IN A SYCAMORE I WAS GLAD
ALL AT THE TOP, AND I SANG.
HARD ON THE LAND WEARS THE STRONG SEA
AND EMPTY GROWS EVERY BED.
<B 2 BIG BUTTONS...>
THE JANE IS ZONED! NO NIGHTSPOT HERE, NO BAR
THERE, NO SWEET FREEWAY, AND NO PREMISES
FOR BUSINESS PURPOSES,
NO LOITERERS OR NEEDERS. HENRY ARE
BAFFLED. HAVE EV'YBODY HEAD FOR MAINE,
UTILITY-MAN TAKE A TRAIN?
ARRIVE A TIME WHEN ALL COONS LOSE DERE GRIP,
BUT IS HE COME? LE'S DO A HOEDOWN, GAL,
ONE BLUE, ONE SHUFFLE,
IF THEM IS ALL YOU SEEM TO REQ . . .
