My bones ache,
My pores burn,
My very innards
Are a’ churn.
Exhaustion sets
My hair ablaze.
I do approach
The end of days.
I’m dehydrated
As I ask you
Why wouldn’t I
Stay up ’til 2:00?

Alt Wisdom
Never be nervous to be who you are.
Don’t be afraid to be you.
Don’t feel scared to ask “whyever so?”
When the other owls only ask “who?”

I Made Them For You!
Goats don’t make good rolling pins:
That’s how this recipe begins.
They kick and spit and stomp and bray
But my cookies taste fine anyway.

What A Ruffled Life He Lays
The sound of screaming guitars
And the smell of burning tires
A flash of purple lightning
And your flavor on my lips,
A lightness in my beating heart
Merges with everburning fires
As my vision fades to black
And I see my life is a commercial for chips.
Rich People Suck Or Something, But Not Really…
You may be a man of means
Who’s healthy, wealthy, and wise. You
Sure may be a man of means
And if so I must despise you
For if you are a man of means
Your good luck clouds your head
For who would be a man of means
And not a man of nices instead?

…Which Is In 52 Minutes Because Life
I’m grateful for my blessings.
I’m thankful for my friends.
My family’s a wellspring
Through which all my trouble ends.
I’ve so much joy I’ll lend it out
To those who need to borrow,
But I won’t express my gratitude;
I’m saving it for tomorrow.

Illustration Omitted… You’re Welcome
Yankee Doodle went to town
Riding on a pony.
Scooby and gang ripped his face off
Proving he’s a phony!
