Elmont's Steak Dinner

Elmont was hungry He needed money Trying not to be bitter Hearing the bull sifting through the ticket litter Two bucks thrown away Nothing came through his way Headed home All alone Planning what to tell his bookie on the phone And there it appeared Saying he had nothing to fear Wiping a tear Suddenly, seeing a gigantic steer “He has a lot of raw meat When grilled at the proper heat Tangy and sweet” But how does Elmont take This beef cake From the grazing land To the hamburger stand Elmont thought and sought How this entrée could be caught Go up to the main course on the lawn And say ‘you are not going to see the dawn’ ‘I am in control Going to take you in on my patrol’ With a little light left Moos could even be heard by the deaf He found one wanting to be cooked Slaughtered and seasoned as stated in the good book “Moo” said the cow Elmont answered him with a pow A few hours later His loving partner was the waiter “You tipped the cow way too much And he didn’t like where you touched I took spare ribs out of the freezer Enjoy them at your leisure” It took work To barbeque the pork An interesting selection No need for rejection Even though Elmont did not get a steak dinner His wife tonight was the true winner
