[Deer Park, August 27, 2009]

Most think correctly Johnny Walker
Is booze, but this John Walker’s a lawyer
Whose caught trout in more awkward stances
Than Nadia Comaneci winning four golds.
To “Walker a Trout” means to capture it
Entirely by accident by methods
And unique unreplicable manner
Thence to act like such is plain old skill
Rather than the sheer serendipity
Of some black art given to those lonely
Few Before the Bar spouting rules and las
Of indecipherable jurisprudence
Which suggest to me our laws get Walkered
As easily as Ozarkian trout
When the Walkerer wears magic mojo
The definition of which is hid
From we mortals excluded from such clubs.
