Holmes Jim Biography

Of playful days, when in my prime,
I tried my hand at romantic flings,
Didn't much care about serious things,

I hold it in when anger swells,
Trapped inside my self-imposed hell,

With a stroke of my pen like a fine piece of art,

Carried forth by my trusty oar,
To search for camp on it's western shore,
