Thank You For Visiting benandsteve.com

The answers to many of the photos scripts you will see on this site will be found in stories appearing in articles written by Benjamin Groff. He has detailed the adventures of his and Steven’s life, and those of his law enforcement days. As well, there are the many stories which will soon appear concerning their radio entertainment period. Not to fear the events of the two nearly four decades of knowing one another continue to erupt stories with Benjamin’s writings and maybe, just maybe, a soon to be decided podcast.

The Poem of My Father’s Youth

I woke up early this morning,
And glanced up at the wall,
Where the roaches and the bedbugs
Were playing a game of ball.

The score was six to nothing,
The roaches was ahead,
I got so doggone excited
I jumped clean out of bed.

I hurried downstairs for breakfast,
But the coffee there was so stale,
It tasted just like tobacco juice
Served fresh right out of the county jail.

And though the years have drifted by,
And time has had its say,
That little rhyme my father learned
Has never gone away.

Benjamin Groff
