An Ode To The Route 76 Signs
O! Rapt'rous decency of man!
To selfless toil with posthole tool and spade
O'er flowery field and fragrant dale
O splend'rous joy of verdant signage!
My effervescent fear and chime of peace.
Would'st all men's hands bend pipes of steel!
Or place amongst their midst such guidance!
A path through nature's moods to make.
I cheer thee, soixante-seize! My ever friend
Except, of course, in Illinois,
Those heartless bastards.
