Analysis of Willy Way Mark
Torn Clasic 1947 (Florida)
Willy, dear Willy Way Mark
Lived just south of the park
He got married one day
Took a woman to live his way
She lived hers and he lived his
All was fine until he quizzed
He asked her a simple favor
She refused in a fever
And just before he was dead
He yelled “she doesn’t care”
As she bashed in his head
