Ezra Pound - Ezra on the Strike
Work rating: Low

Wal, Thanksgivin` do be comin` round.
With the price of turkeys on the bound,
And coal, by gum! Thet were just found,
Is surely gettin` cheaper.

The winds will soon begin to howl,
And winter, in its yearly growl,
Across the medders begin to prowl,
And Jack Frost gettin` deeper.

By shucks! It seems to me,
That you I orter be
Thankful, that our Ted could see
A way to operate it.

I sez to Mandy, sure, sez I,
I`ll bet thet air patch o` rye
Thet he`ll squash `em by-and-by,
And he did, by cricket!

No use talkin`, he`s the man - 
One of the best thet ever ran, 
Fer didn`t I turn Republican
One o` the fust?

I `lowed as how he`d beat the rest,
But old Si Perkins, he hemmed and guessed,
And sed as how it wuzn`t best
To meddle with the trust.
