[Newspoetry] Newspoets in the Paper

[Joe Futrelle]

Hi, I have already gotten permission from all of you except Bob
(a.k.a. "Dad") to print your poems.  If you've had a change of heart
speak now or we can hash it out in small claims court later.

So Dad, do you want your limer-ish to appear in print?  Think of the
royalties!

Note to Sandra: spell it "Anne Bargar" (with two "a"'s)
