My Poem "The Fix" Featured in "The Daily Drunk"

Okay, the EIC of The Daily Drunk lit mag really outdid himself this time with the illustration for my hysterically funny poem, THE FIX.  Notice the heads on the yellow jacket bees. Cracks me up every time I see them!!  Believe it or not, this is a true story. I still have the porch door to prove it (or what's left of it). Enjoy!! THE FIX (dailydrunkmag.com)
