Call It Lazy

Okay, call it lazy.  ‘Nother one of my pieces
Getting posted on-line and they want a bio.
Man, I’m tired of listing all my stuff.  Look,
It’s a lengthy roster of my published work,
Along with awards I don’t give a shit about,
Old enough to be, for me, incredibly boring.
I’m just into mixing words with the world,
Something you do while you’re still alive.
So, I’ll give myself a break and borrow a bio.
Slap it right up as if it were my own credits.
Yeah, use their catalogue of ‘published in’
Publications and their Push Cart etc. awards.
Even add their personal notes.  That’s easy.
Lives in a cabana on a west coast beach
With three kids, four cats, and a husband.
Husband?  Crap!  I’m stealing the wrong bio.
