CHAMBER OF THE LOST SOULS
I keep a large chamber full of tormented, lost souls,
Brought to me by the little, cemetery ground moles,
Many departed are crying,
They are not peacefully lying,
Mocking their sadness, is one of my favorite trolls.
STEVE AND THE FIRE DEMON
There once was a big dragon, named Steve,
He ate witches on All Hallows Eve,
He ate a demon called Zeaming
Now Steve's ears are both steaming,
And his breath burns each town, do th he leave.

THE END OF DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME
Well, today we've gained an extra hour,
That gives us time for all to shower,
So, relaxed starts the day,
Cause, Daylight Savings Time's gone away,
And, the extra sleep gives us each super power.

UNCLE JOE'S RETREAT
Poor, old Uncle Joe could never find romance,
Joe became an expatriate, to South France,
All the day long,
He'd hum his song,
At night there was karaoke, before the dance.

FIST BUMPS AND FANGS
There was a little werewolf in the tree,
The werewolf sat there waiting, just for me,
He growled and showed he was grumpy,
So I gave him a fist bumpy,
He toothy smiled, and howled brilliantly.

HEART FAILURE AND THE KNIFE
There once was an iconic, little blogger who could,
He often made videos about carving craft wood,
Then he'd slice up some ham,
And fry it with lite Spam,
Until his arteries got all clogged, under the hood.

THE NAUGHTY CUTIE CAT
I played with his new sneakers, and his sneakers were blue,
I chewed on his iconic socks, and they were blue too,
I'm the cutie cat, named Fred,
Thinking, I'll pee in his bed,
But I'm afraid I'll get caged-up, like the cat at the zoo.

MEME CREATOR
I created a sweet meme to see if it could gain traction,
Unfortunately, my new meme got no reaction,
It was a silly meme,
It was sort of extreme,
It's unpopular repeats, caused me dissatisfaction.

JOY RIDDING A REINDEER TO TEXAS
I rode on a magic reindeer in the velvet sky,
I stole the deer from Santa, at the North Pole Fish Fry,

Until I saw the bright light,
Then we touched down in Texas, where the rattlesnakes lie.

Trying to save a case of tuna cans.

Then Jimmy quit his bad news dentist, and made some new teeth from red clay.

RASPBERRIES IN HEAVEN
My overgrown, deep reddish, raspberry vine,
Dug its sticky prickers, deep into my spine,
They stuck me so deep,
They bled me to sleep,
I now pick berries with the angels, divine.
THE SECRETS OF FABULOUS RANDY
Mr. Randy had a tailor too,
And a man who cut and stitched each shoe,
Dear, old Mrs. Fox,
Knitted Randy's socks,
His coat came from a cow that went "moo".

DESTINATION SEATTLE
Yesterday, I rode upon the air in a big, old airplane,
A Seattle destination, was my one goal, to obtain,
The dang, old plane hit some torque,
We diverted to New York,
I felt anger and confusion, and it exploded my brain.

SCREAM PARK
In the small town of Mancelona, there was a dream,
To build a family fun park with an outdoor theme,
The theme chosen was bears,
But it gave all the kids, scares,
Instead of a fun park, it was the park of the scream.
TIGER, TIGER, FATTY MEAT
I dream all day long of pickled pigs feet,
It's the only food for super I'll eat,

Thinking I'm one tiger cat,
Gnawing from the bones the fat and the meat.

For the stars in the constellation are galaxies apart.

A permanent stain; Mary bought a new pair with her doe.

We came back with a chainsaw,
Grandpa cut the willow up, and gave termites a home, with lots to eat.

My term paper is due and I must get locked in,

My caffeine coffee is strong,
Like my chocolate Ding Dong,
If I get locked in now, I'll be done by din, din.

With a fire breathing burn,
Then at the end of his big air show, he sings.

WHY I WAS TENTED BY THE ER

Then I remembered, I swallowed a pointy, thin toothpick,
To the ER I was sent,
Stayed in an oxygen tent,
I found a tv remote for my fingers to click.

Seems my uncle had spent it on parties and a pool.

SELLING THE DILLED ON THE HILLED
I was gonna do up some sour pickles that are dilled,

Then I found my dill was full of worms,
With that, I finally come to terms,
I still used the dill, and the quality, each sale confirms.

Down in the new shopping mall,Ted was mewing on display,
Showing off his big jaw bone size, throughout the live long day,
Before Ted headed home,
His mewing lips spewed foam,
Afterwards when people saw Ted, they fled quickly away.

AI CLOWN KITE HAS MOVES

It dives to crash, then turns sharp up, from down.

Driving us from the cave with his farty.

THE POTATO SUPER EIGHT
There were once eight garden heroes, called The Potato Super Eight,
They protected the vegetable garden, and they were first rate,
They chased off the worms and bugs,
The raccoons, gophers and slugs,
They were eight handsome, perfect spuds, all the green beans wanted to date.
BLUE JAY OLYMPIANS.
Several blue jays set on my laundry line and made a swing,
They swung one at a time like it was a competitive thing,
Each swung high for a while,
Then competed on style,
For a participation award; a worm from the leaf pile.

MEALING WITH TOM
Tom's black eyed peas tasted delicious with butter and salt,

It was lemonade, made pink,
Tom thought through deserts he knew, and picked a chocolate malt.
THE BOUNTY BAIL BLUES

My new box is itty, bitty.

THE MEME OF FEAR
I lived during the great, strange time of the memes,
Some were silly and funny, others caused screams,
But I am not going there,
I fear the meme of the bear,
With his knife like claws, cutting open my seams.
