To sport would be as tedious as to work;

And nothing pleaseth but rare accidents.”

into paper coffee-cups, eaten
with petals on rye in the

and the traffic grinding the

At Cherrylog Road I entered
The 34 Ford without wheels,
Smothered in kudzu,
With a seat pulled out to run
Corn whiskey down from the hills,”
