ALIBI

I'm just a carefree Southerner of proud
and sturdy from-birth yankee heritage!
I always hunker down and shout aloud--
my shrill retorts possess a grating edge!
When my new-found southern-ness is attacked,
I claim my yankee roots as honest fact
with my unusual accent, I preen!
It's alibi for my eccentric ways! ,
An auditory perk for being Me
as ways through my environment I blaze!
