Ode To The "X"

It doesn’t look like much, the letter “X”

But it speaks volumes in the right conteXt

Like the Southern home for a country boy’s eX’s

Just south of the Red River, they call it TeXas.

 

Need a car and have a pile of cash?

A LeXus will finish off your savings stash.

Having a little trouble signing the dotted line?

An “X” on the spot will work just fine.

You can have an eX-wife or even be eXpelled

An eX-con can find his sentence upheld.

You can try to eXplain why you don’t eXercise

But too many eXcuses could bring your demise.

 So number twenty-four in the alphabet

Is a character for sure, one we’ll never forget

To eXpatiate on such a simple theme

Could only happen on the page of a meme.
