Re: shooting wads - it's not a reference to ejaculate. A wad is the thing that pushes the shot out of a cartridge in a shotgun. And in a muzzle-loader, you put in powder, then a wad, then shot or a slug.
T.S. Elliot is credited with saying something like, "Good poets borrow, great poets steal", so maybe it's the thief trying to deflect from the idea that he is a thief. It's difficult, if not impossible, for us to see ourselves in a negative light, but the recognition of our negative side can be far more valuable than denying that it exists, which is something Carl Jung recognized. My apologies if this comment is too serious for "I Might Be Wrong".
Mississippi John Hurt was a TITAN of acoustic guitar who was indeed born and raised in Mississippi.

My glass of champagne is flat.
Is that genocide?
