Custom Cues
by David E. Malone

(February 2002)

I have a hunger for custom cues
Their sheen, patina, varied hues
Their silver, ivory, reds and blues
I have a hunger for custom cues

I have a longing for rare wood.
Gabon ebony, it's understood,
Compared to maple's twice as good.
I have a longing for rare wood.

I am in love with precious stones
Onyx, Jade, and Fossil Bones
Should decorate a cue one owns...
I am in love with precious stones.

I fall asleep to ivory dreams.
Inlays, ferrules, points... It seems
My appetite exceeds my means.
I fall asleep to ivory dreams.

I awake to thoughts of Richard Black,
Or Scruggs, or Mottey... back-to-back
with Kikels, Perrys on my rack.
I awake to thoughts of Richard Black.

I have this love for custom cues
Great works of art but made to use.
What mortal player could refuse
To be in love with custom cues?
