The time of life is in time for music. I am a writer and I believe that one day they’ll write me and say “Can I use that?” and then they’ll send me a check for the royalty.

However I know it is some and some means people want it but they want it to be. So if you like it but want to fix it then do so. Send me a copy of the fix and if it is really good and you make a fortune then I won’t need to worry about royalty for you who make money from it.

At this time I like to call this Creative Corn with er. Of course er can be bad and that is why the er is colored. For if you have corne it is corny and if you corn er it is a side to the deep corner of life.

Now if I try to be funny I usually blow it so read my stuff with slyness of heart. Find it funny then tell me.

At least give me a sigh and send me a gift of royalty if you use it.

Last of all try to be the worst critic. Then when you have criticized it up and down then rake it across the coals. Then send me a check for the potash which results.

Finally send me a check for the potash anyway. As of today the price is at 1,000 a ton. Who would imagine?

All the best to the creative folks of the world. God bless you all for your wonderful achievements.
