The Feeble Attempt at Humor Section

You have made it to the section that I did not even want to be in this book. Unfortunately,many of my friends said that they would not buy this book unless it included poems like "Showdown" and "Early to Class."

Being the true artist that I am, however, that I could not stoop to include work that I did not deem worthy of appearing in these pages. That would be selling out.

So much to their displeasure, there will be no "Early to Class" or "Showdown" in this publication. In fact, I do not recall writing those poems at all. And if there happens to be any copies of those poems in circulation with my name on them, I will deny ever writing them until the day I pass on.

I did not break the laws of my country. I did not inhale. I did not have sexual relations with that woman, and I did not write any humorous poems.
