Under the Florida Son
On Wilson’s first Inaugural Day
A “man” was born. His father always called
Him “Man.” For instance, Archibald might say,
“Go do your hunting, Man.” Archie’d been galled
To have so many females in his life,
Was thrilled to have another male around
Instead of daughters, daughters, wife and wife.
The quite amazing fact that might confound
The cynics is the boy grew up to be
A princely gentleman, more decent, wise,
And charming than a president—and free
Inside his mind. He did fanaticize.
..That’s true, yet . . . among his many glories
….Was telling his four “Men” shining stories.
