I hope this is clear. I would appreciate serious, sincere respones.
Thanks, and I do use this site as learning site as well as giggles.

This has been settled by a higher authority
..........TWO DAYS PER SHOT..........
High Rollin' Dick, a dude known to be slick
Stood watching a game of pool
His shoes were shined, he was dressed to the nines
He knew he was looking real cool
It was the seventh frame of a one-pocket game
And Dick was sweatin' it out
He sat down to relax with two Yukon Jacks
But then he started to shout
"Are you insane or not, don't you dare shoot that shot
Shoot the nine or you'll surely get beat"
"I've bet a thousand on you and you know I'm down two"
Then he leapt to his feet
He said "I'll show you the shot, what's right and what's not
I'll explain every little detail"
Then he turned to the crowd, stepped forward and bowed
And said "when I'm through he'll think he's in jail
But Billy said "wait', I'd shoot the eight
And you know it's the right thing to do"
Then Doc said "hey look, it's right here in the book
Grady says he'd shoot the two"
Artie said "squeeze 'em and duck and then hide
Lock all the balls up that way"
"By the time that you win rigor mortis sets in
They're easy to beat this way"
Then chaos ensued, it got ugly and rude
All thought that they knew the most
And then through the wall as if not there at all
Came a straight-shootin' One Pocket Ghost
"Shoot the seven" he opined, "or you're out of your mind
I'll tell you for the last time today"
Freddy said "thanks, but I see three banks
Where was it that you learned to play?"
"I'd shoot the four" said Mr. Senor
"And I'll say it again and again"
"The four is the nuts if you've got the guts
In my eyes, you shoot it you win"
But Rod said "the one, I'm not here for the fun
Do you really need me to shout?"
"Cut the one thin and watch it roll in
Make the one, run eight and out"
Now Steve had been listening to all of them bicker
Over the right shot to play
His patience was long but he said "you're all wrong
Shoot the twelve and you'll win today"
Then came a voice from above, it was clear and it roared
And they started to tremble and shake
It said, "what's wrong with you all, don't you know that the shot
Is the one that he thinks he can make"
I hope this helps
