Ode to Green
Green is the color of newness and life The hue of the mold growing on my cheese knife The shade of the skin of my alien wife With green the heavens are rife Lime, kelly, seafoam, and deep forest pine Illuminated in the bright sunshine The flora buffet on which I will dine Yes, everything green tastes fine Most frogs and aphids with green ...

"Keeper's Runs" (or "My dog has Mud-Butt!")
To be sung to the tune of Delia’s Gone, by Johnny Cash. Keeper! Oh, Keeper! He’s full of doggy fun. Maybe that’s why we’re so sad he had a bad case of the runs. Keeper’s runs, oh my Lord! Keeper’s runs. When we first got him, he had ''adoption stress'', And folks told us it was normal for him to make a runny mess. A runny mess, one ...

A Really Bad Love Poem
If ever I was a glowing sun you would be my earth. If your beauty was a can of Coke you sure would quench my thirst. If I couldn't win you for second prize I'd definitely come in first.

Fellow Traveler
I have a friend who gave a name to his smokes, 'cause when it comes to cigarettes this man don't joke. He calls them ''Fellow Travelers'', and to me it's kinda funny 'cause he, may or may not know that's what they used to call ''commies''.

Dumb and Dumber
Dumb and Dumber Were Bush to debate Ahmadinejad, Nary a word of truth would be had. In one corner, a holocaust denier; In the other, a congenital liar. One would argue black is white.
