wild bill kept me camp and saved my life
--------------------------------------------------------
my pard my pal was wild bill
i slept not zipped not once
my feet would glow yet cold outside
my wild bill was wall and home
on bed of stone i slept a prince
on thermalite in wild bill
i was a cat in the window
one day miles and days into the land
a wiley light came on and stayed
and wild bill caught a hole i felt
the scent but dismissed it -- it's
farmers burning weeds in the fields
wild bill kept the flame down and
this smoke had no fire. but
...fuel in a red fuel cell...
...fuel in a 2 gallon fuel jug...
...unleaded fuel rode in the back...
my wild bill proved plainsman-well
on the plains in the mountains
stood guard at night then saved my life
and so i recommend my pard my pal my good
friend bill my teal-black plainsman and scout
try wild bill with 3-D polarguard fill
to plus fifteen farenheit.
but think twice of
glossy new cars with
flimsy sensors bossing
the naked though recessed
ambushme baby lightmyfires
