Rep. Jim Buck poetically responds to proposed 'state poet laureate' bill

2/26/03

Olympia, WA - Representative Jim Buck has responded to the bill proposed by Rep. Lynn Kessler to create a state poet laureate position with the following...

There once was a State rep from Joyce,
Who was asked to give poets a voice.
But he said we are broke
and this ain't no joke.
So we wont give the poets a choice.

Thanks, I will have to vote 'no' on the Poet Laureate bill.

Jim
