Slipshod manner

The signs of running
Running narrow made
Tip top narrow faced
Purses guessing the bill
Guessing hats as feasts gather
Hatting two by two
Just when the purses weren't coming through
And the time crunch stopped
Sailing earthen vessles to guessing jars
Guessing sinks waiting to be overturned
One thread decibel away
One threaded horn throw
And the horns turned on each other
Two by two
Two by fours guessing walking the plank
Guessing bills the purses left behind
Nursing grudges walking plank
One south sea behind, opening doors in slipshod manner
Shoring disasters hiding in stores
And when the shimmering waits
The shoe shines come lumbering in.
