DO NOT remove the line break (
<br /> ) html coding at the end of each line break, these are
needed to form the correct lines.
THE CHEATIf you do not wish to
delete a poem, or a certain part of a poem, and instead would like to send the
url to Mick via PM for confirmation, enclose the entire poem (or part/s thereof)
between <!-- and -->

-->). This will still save the text, but will make it invisible from
viewing (other than page source view). You could also add before the
<!-- something to the effect of "This Poem under review".
Banjo Sandwich
I do not write of a man,
I do not write of bread and meat,
I do not write of strings and chords;
There’s a brazen name I heard,
A name to trench a ditch,
A name called, Banjo Sandwich.
It’s not a name for a planet,
Not a name for Persian rugs,
Not a name for a three-wheeled car,
More like a name for a bar
With sawdust floors
And swinging half doors.
I am not the Banjo Sandwich,
You, are not the Banjo Sandwich,
That name cannot be spoken
Without a wink, nod and grin,
A name that braves a bullet in the back,
A brazen name that swats a lasting smack.
