Corporal Crayola

Twelve years ago it all began, Rennie Hoffman started out,

Working down in skid road, there wasn't any doubt.

That he would soon be walking, on tired aching feet,

While keeping law and order, in the confines of his beat.

He would soon gain fame, around the streets, along with TommyCork,

They became a two man wrecking crew, always hard at work.

Seizing drugs and dealing with, the ever present drunk,

Stopping thefts and robberies, and people dealing junk.

And then one day it ended, the two were split apart,

Hoffman sent to Oakridge, to get a brand new start.

So with a brand new partner, and working in south west,

He then began to study hard, he hoped to pass the test.

Then finally he made it, to the corporals list,

Soon he will be leaving us, and really will be missed.

When he finally gets those hooks, his pen they'll take away,

To be replaced by these eight crayons, to help him through theday.

He can use them to keep busy, in the PIC or in the jail,

Or use them to mark up reports, and sending out the mail.

Since he will be off the street, he'll need a new nickname,

So Corporal Crayola, 'cause he'll never be the same.

So good luck to Rennie Hoffman, wherever you may go,

If you hear the word Crayola, we hope that you will know.

You were once a member of eight one, remember one and all,

The people you have worked with, we'll be there if you shouldcall.
