Gone with the Wind

Now Charley might have thought
Clark Gable was a god,
could recite those famous lines
like, “Frankly Scarlet, I don’t give a damn.”

But none of that
had anything to do
with his idea of “gone with the wind.”

Because he loved his beans,
loved way to many foods
that gave him
serious cases of flatulence,
which nobody appreciate less
than when he released
some really foul smelling scent
then went, “ah, gone with the wind.”

I suppose it gave him some joy
for use we just knew it was time
once he uttered those words
to find a place to hide from the odor.

And no matter how he loved to say it
just because he came from down south,
didn’t to use mean
when he let fly another nose hair curling aroma
he had the right to say,
“the south is going to rise again!”

We just eventually let him rise by himself
until he decided rising
wasn’t very good if you were lonely.
