Fox trot

 The fox shot out of the entrance

And he sprang across the road

His wily wild head, lolling tonge hanging red

And a grin of his face saying overload


He grinned the laughing grin of a joker,

But crazy intelligence of a poker

Player from the barn, who takes chickens

By the yarn, tells of the wild dreams

Of a yoker


He cuts clean like a suit

Fires his brazen canons in salute

To the Sassy salty sea

Wearing orange sash of the bear

God-like as hesperides or Loki


A fallen angel star, picked up in a bar

Propped up by a whisky sour

The head of folded hair

The face of livid care

The wild wily fox crossed over
