22 Tongue Slinger

Cowboys grazing
on bacon and beans;
Their six guns are blazing
Ablast across the vast plains.

Tounges are slinging,
Brass bells are ringing,
Black powder is singing,
Bullets of words are zinging.

The tongue slinger
Is a hum dinger
A whiz and a zinger
A poetic dead ringer!

Tongue slinger verse
Grows faster and worse
And once words have shot you
Blasted brains flee with a curse.

Babbling brains
Repeat the refrains
Of six guns a-blazing
A tongue slinger--amazing!
