The Virtues of Carnation Milk
Anonymous

(This quatrain is imagined as the caption under a picture 
of a rugged-looking cowboy seated upon a bale of hay.)

Carnation Milk is the best in the land;
Here I sit with a can in my hand --
No tits to pull, no hay to pitch,
You just punch a hole in the son of a bitch.
