An Ode to Smokey Joe the Hipster

I would like you to meet Mr Smokey Joe
If it's a hipster your after he's the guy to know

He rolls his own durries and wears a big coat
And like a duck to water he's not one to gloat

He knows the cool bands before they exist
And that's cooler than hip if your getting my gist

But his claim to glory and hipster crown
Is the growth on his face, his beard so brown

Without this feature he would cease to exist
Be but a vapour of air or a patch of mist

It signifies that he is the dominant man
Because without the beard he's probably bland

So the lesson to learn and heed this time
And the reason for this here hipster ryhme

Is that growing a beard could be your best move
Get you outta your funk and into the groove

This beard could become your very best feature
And transform you into a hairy masculine creature

The End
