Predawn originators of burnt amber light,
let compound cordiality invigorate with love
the basket weaver, hair-braider, motorcycle rider,
runnin' for the fun of a lamb burger bun
or baloney filled baguette of bread with cheese.
We lie with lions like in Good Book number one,
and Lilliputian locusts sing their song along the lane.
Stars in outer space should regulate their rotate,
hover over like a lover this cacophony of fun;
with multi-color cover of profound ethnicity.
No time for tepid titillation just the spicy digitations
of a better, never bitter, open market majesty.
Be fastidiously festive at our Cuttlefish and Kipper County Fair
where God will give the nod to nettled nerds who need a job .
Calamity is banned by city ordinance and law,
and honey-covered snickerdoodle sales are banned at ten.
Take romantic nighttime tours of Rest Well cemetery stones,
to read the names of those who came to Kipper County first,
they settled in to stay and never, ever went away.
All heroes to the Cuttlefish and Kipper County Fair.
Billy Bonny came here with his mommy
when he really was a kid. We found her
cut-up body parts in Cuttle County Creek
but Billy was invisible and ran away and hid.
Well that is just a little of the fun you all can have
here at our Cuttlefish and Kipper County Fair this year.
We hope to see you there and havin'fun REAL SOON!
(Billy Bonny is Billy the Kid-Psychotic Outlaw)

THE FAIR: (Cacophony poem)
Screams emanating from a carnival ride
Barkers calling to come inside
Children laughing boisterously
“Step this way,” calls the barker.
Ribbon won by Bess the baker.
Smiles adorn children’s faces
