A Writer in Thailand

A year without money, a year without sex,

A year without working, a year with the Czechs;

A year drinking Moxie, a year out-of-doors,

A year selling Avon, a year without drawers;

A year in Las Vegas, a year in Thailand;

A year with the Mob pulling down eighty-grand.

A year as a dentist or lawyer or cook;

A year in the pay of political crook;

A year and a day in a barrel of pork,

A year in the life of a marabou stork.

A year as a writer who’s taking his ease,

Writing a book that is just a reprise.
