A chapter in the book Memories of Mastery
Cleve Land
by Bill Schott
Cleve Hawkins' world of chiselers and cops,
muggs and pugs and friends in some flops,
gunsels with grit and fink lollipops,
all found a home with Bob.
Dames and twists, bimbos and molls,
jaspers and stoolies, pimps in pool halls,
crooners and hoofers, and what one recalls,
all found a home with Bob.
Our shamus was famous with bulls and hacks,
known by cuckoos and floozies, pikers and sacks,
now they have moved, and those are the facts,
gone to a new home -- with Bob.
