Words R Purty, and the more, the better. I betcha that guy doesn’t like what Dr. Maturin has to say, either.

Personally, I consider the preference for Dick-and-Jane prose to be incomprehensible, but I must admit my absolute favorite of all the criticisms directed against my writing so far was, “She definitely won’t use two words where six will do.”

He trots through the house at the sound of a siren
The door flew apart
26 rounds through his heart
“You all saw it, he had a gun”

Too morbid?

it never kills.
He had a bad heart,
she too many pills,
he was psychotic,
she was already ill.
So don’t be neurotic,
coz it never kills

One law for you, one law for me
and if my crimes arent erased
no justice is faced
since there’s qualified immunity

Some people say I am mean like that.

Steven Hayne runs an autopsy shop
processing body part all day non-stop
he’ll do any deed
prosecutors need
coz he always finds for the cops

Michael West can tell from a bite
if a perp is black or white
their SAT score
height, address, and what’s more
he is 100% right.

Please feel free to plagiarize the following. Perhaps Bill will find it more to his refined tastes in the written word.

Meet Michael West of Mississippi
He could match bite marks to teeth, infamously.
But his bluff has been called,
Yet the DA’s still enthralled
And people languish in jail, innocently.
