When his mom says don’t holster
A gun down your pants

Careful–that thing could go off
And so could the gun

That’s what they all say.

That’s what they all say
when they’re caught with their pants down
like Woods and Edwards.

And self-shooter accident
Plaxico Burress

Plaxico Burress
a name that flows trippingly
off the tongue, O joy!

Off the tongue, o joy,
the words spill with abandon
