The Blessed Billy Bob

The Blessed Billy Bob
Posted On 12/19/2007 12:01:43

Billy Bob wasn't exactly fat, just a wee bit rotund...
kinda like the dome on top of the state capitol
except he didnt have a flagpole where his belly
button should have been.

A bass drum lead the procession...not that he
deserved a big parade but customs rule even
when there is little justification for one. You see
Billy Bob was a "fixer" an "arranger" if you prefer,

Justice wasn't cheap, but if you had something
Billy Bob wanted then you could get what passed
for Justice in that town. Sometimes it took a
Grand Piano like that one that got imported
in the middle of the night from the next town,
or the town past that one, no one would ever
say for sure.. It ended up on the platform at
preachers conference the next sunday and
uncle george got outa jail just in time to
get married to the girl next door., then he
went back to jail but at least the kids were
accounted for.

But other times, mostly to frequent to mention
all it took was a peck of the brown eye.... just
a little hint of an undeserved compliment,
but that could be enough to keep the lawyers
from stealing your portion of the harvest.

It's been said to never speak ill of the dead,
but I don't know about that, mostly you
can't speak about the living at all, cause
if you did all hell might break lose.

My mama mostly always lied, I think she may
have been honest at some point in her ife..
but after a lifetime of what passed for virtue
in our town it's any wonder she could speak
at all. When I asked "Where did I come from?"
She said from the Dr.. later as I got older
and learned how to listen I realized she always
called him "Dr. Booby" and that she went to
work for him right out of school... working
every day and getting chased around the
room every time she tried to get away to
go home.

So the families aound there always sang
that old camp meeting song..."Will the
circle be unbroken?". then when someone
burned down the court house..it was said
my Granpa did it, and the doctor left
town shortly after that. Thank God for Billy
Bob, otherwise I would have been a bastard.

So the Tuba finished up the procession Um Pa.
Um Pa...and ole Billy Bob went to hell in a
Gilded Casket. Blessed be the Lord.
