    When The Mill Shut Down

    When the mill shut down
    we hit the pavement with a thud
    then we all got up and kept walking.

    Some to the work house
    some to the poor house
    some to the whorehouse
    and the grave.

    One of your all-time best Doc.....

    Good morning, thanks again.
