I chanced upon this while working on my tomb of a screed and
was so flattered that you had written a poem for me that I felt it
only appropriate to respond.
Thank you.

P.S. And to any miscreant who would deem it otherwise:
If Dale says it's a poem, it's a poem.
P.P.S. While the poem does, indeed, stand beside itself like
two separate 600 pound gorillas, there are a few irregularities
(as others have mentioned) in the dialect. Living in Austin,
unfortunately, doesn't lend itself to learning to write in any of
the authentic Texas dialects. Living anywhere else in Texas,
unfortunately, doesn't lend itself to living.
