A response to Christopher Reid’s ‘The Calabash.’
Gotta make a man, man.
Gotta go, gotta go.
Just made a man, man.
Gotta go now.
Man wants a mate, man.
Gotta go, gotta go.
Just made a mate, man.
Gotta go now.
Says he doesn’t like it, man.
Gotta go, gotta go.
Say he wants it rounder, man,
Gotta go now.
Billows at the bottom, man.
Gotta go, gotta go.
Plump at the top, man.
Gotta go now.
Man wants a gourd, man?
Gotta go, gotta go.
Doesn’t want a mate, man.
Gotta go now.
Keeps him out of trouble, man?
Gotta go, gotta go.
Wait till the fall, man.
Gotta go now.
