| Mystique
Kansas, Iowa, New Hampshire
Boring, unfamous
There is no likeness in belt-buckle
Ingestion
Empty chili bowl
A Shiner Bock longneck
To douse the fire in my ass
Education
Forty-seventh in the country, yet
Pigs are in the world, yum
Deliver us, Ph.Ds in porcine husbandry
Mobility
Sheep in Jaguar?
Haybales in Volvo?
El Camino, El Camino

Spoken word
Speak English, Limey
Parler vous Francais, Frog
Yuh steel kaint unnerstan mah laangwij
Beauty
Big hair on yore purty haid
Blocks thuh settin' sun
Lahk mah ohl rig obstructin' mah manshun, sniff.
Olfaction
Cotton candy at Six Flags fills my nose
Sweet as horse manure
On the heel of my boot
Fame
A poor, uneducated, Bolivian sharecropper
Knows
About Texas
