Penniwit, the ArtistI lost my patronage in Spoon RiverFrom trying to put my mind in the cameraTo catch the soul of the person.The very best picture I ever tookWas of Judge Somers, attorney at law.He sat upright and had me pauseTill he got his cross-eye straight.Then when he was ready he said “all right.”And I yelled “overruled” and his eye turned up.And I caught him just as he used to lookWhen saying “I except.”
