You Can Call Me

You can call me a sportsman
I’ll wear that name with pride
But I prefer the name of hunter
Happy eater of all things fried
Or perhaps the slayer of the grazing beast
It has a poetic ring
Food for the belly, food for the soul
It’s such a beautiful thing
You can call me a fisherman
While eating your beans and cabbage
I would rather be known by all
As the retriever of aquatic slabbage
Filet knife sharpened as the scales fly
Greazy skillet ready for duty
A veritable orgy for the senses
Pirates never saw such booty

Good Luck!

You know, I wondered how you were going to rhyme "cabbage".
Most impressive.
Definitely another manly poem, too!

Aquatic slabbage is good but the 'greazy skillet' is my favorite vision here. For me, it's gotta be a great big one with catfish being fried up on a hot fire. Outside of course. Peace

A pit for you ...

Have you ever wondered what opinion a wolf (dog) might have of us? They hunt for days at a time to find a tasty meal. We leave the house and come back with food for a month in less than two hours. What mighty hunters we are :?). ~ mom
