Tommy Is the Man | Donal Mahoney

Tommy is the only man
for miles around who can knot a tie.
Old farmers come to town on Saturday
and wave from pickups with respect
when they see Tommy on the street
out for a walk in his black suit.
Tommy is the man they know
their families will call to knot
their ties and close their caskets.
