I’ll pay ten dollars
For a movie ticket,
Five bucks to see
A game of cricket,
A hundred to Scuba
And get the bends.
Why won’t I pay three
To have no ads on Words with Friends?
I’ll pay ten dollars
For a movie ticket,
Five bucks to see
A game of cricket,
A hundred to Scuba
And get the bends.
Why won’t I pay three
To have no ads on Words with Friends?
Fluff and foof,
Foam and poof.
Through the roof:
Shopping.
White or gray?
Peach or Monet?
Pay and pay:
Shopping.
We’ve got a year
To pick the dress
We’ve seen the glory
And the mess.
Dad’s in the car
Waiting for the yes
That brings the end
Of shopping.

I woke up at 5:00.
Went for a two mile run.
What is wrong with me?

I couldn’t decide
On which cologne
I should wear on the plane.
I tried the first,
And then the next,
And then the first again.
I spritzed and whiffed
But never found
A scent that suited me,
So I tried them all.
Which one works best?
We’ll have to wait and see.

Longitude and latitude
Give me a nasty attitude.
Forget the maps to India.
Let’s just with the wind, ya?

Time is not eternal:
It will someday go away,
And we’ll be left in timelessness
For eternity to stay.
Time is not eternal:
We’ve only got today,
But luckily we have meetings
To make it feel that way.

Tepid waters of my bath
Invoke in me a primal wrath,
But as I move to strike them down
I’m shown to be a simple clown,
For where I strike, the water bends.
This is where my childhood ends,
For no more baths shall I take.
Instead, I go swimming in a lake.
Plodding, panting, galivanting
Amidst the grassy park.
I see a cat. I don’t like that
So I conjure up a bark.
The cat runs off. I’m satisfied
And so I pee and drool.
Then mommy puts the leash back on
And we drive off to school.
