A Fable of Success
A camel safari and a bright red Ferrari, were parked on the road to success.
The car door was open, the salesman hope’n, I’d honor his pitch with a yes.
But the camels were braying, their owners praying, I’d hire their service instead.
Sounding like parrots, proclaiming their merits, playing to the thoughts in my head.
Not being subtle, each had the rebuttal, for whatever the other would say.
Extremely persuasive, clever and evasive, like many universities today.
One had great speed, and would surely succeed, given the favored terrain.
But...

Screaming Scarecrows
Scarecrows speak a language that’s known for all to see
If you’re a flying crow you know, “Don’t mess around with me.”
I do not know how they sound, why or how this came to be
I only know it must be so, as you can see, the crows agree.
If you listen to my CD, of recorded scarecrow screams
It’ll chill your bloody bones, haunting midnight dreams
Crows will seek their refuge in trees and wooded seams
Then come back to investigate, their initial fear it seems
Listening to the screaming scarecrow through my ears of corn,
A haunting sound that...

The World's Most Unappetizing Restaurants - Cocking f**kborough
I was just gettin’ thirsty for a frosty brew when I saw the sign while passing through,
Naturally, I laughed out loud.
It’s just so tempting to keep right on going and step on the gas instead of slowing,
But this town was just too proud.
They must like the name of their town, otherwise they could always turn it around.
Give the damn place a new name.
Perhaps they’re proud of their historical past in spite of their being hysterically cast,
Must be their claim to fame.
So what did happen way back when? Were there fornicators hiding in every glen?...

The World's Most Unappetizing Restaurants - Dirty Dick's
Now I know this isn’t what they serve, and the owner has some kind of nerve
But they’ve been around since 1859.
So a lott’a folks think it’s the place to go, and it looks as though it could be so
Even in spite of their nasty sign.
I still have to look up and wonder who’s the genius behind this naming blunder
And what kind of folks would eat there?
Since I’m in the mood for a beer and a chop and my curiosity just won’t stop
Guess I’ll go in and grab a chair.

Staring at Nature
Sometimes I like to sit and stare at the beauty of nature in her lair
To abandon every worry and care and to purge myself of my despair
So I kick back in my old lawn chair and breath within the ocean air
and shed the stress of wear and tear
To abandon every worry and care and to purge myself of my despair
So I kick back in my old lawn chair and breath within the ocean air
and shed the stress of wear and tear

The World's Most Unappetizing Restaurants - Young Dong Garden
So let us discuss, are they like asparagus? Or Perhaps mushrooms in a row?
Are these little dongs growing, seeded by sowing in sunlight’s basking glow?
Are they portrayed, as a plant from the shade? Do they even grow in the ground?
Are they like a sprout when they pull them out? Do they sell them by the pound?
Genetically engineered or naturally speared? I’ve never seen them before.
Is this a restaurant chain or are they insane? Would I find them in a store?
Do they garnish my salad, nutritiously valid, when scrambled in my eggs?
If they just let...

The World's Most Unappetizing Restaurants - The Golden Shower
The cleansing power of a golden shower must be overrated,
If they must include an order of food it does not get me elated.
It’s an english sign, I can read it fine; the premise is well stated.
But who do they think will eat or drink now that it is translated?
I’m not unkind, there’s a frame of mind, someone’s off their rocker.
Their marketing man, has a hell of a plan. He must be a gifted talker.
If they can pull this off we shouldn’t scoff, but it would be a shocker.
If it survives, I’ll have lived five lives and be hobbling in my walker.

The World's Most Unappetizing Restaurants - Rong Phuk Restaurant
An enticing oriental venue with a thoroughly captivating menu
Whatever they serve, it will take a little nerve
Perhaps the waitress can be my ingenue.
By their sign, I’d conclude
They serve more then food
Being an adventurous dude
Without being rude
I can work up to the mood
especially if I dine in the nude

The World's Most Unappetizing Restaurants - Soon Fatt
For all New Yorkers and heavy set porkers, here’s a restaurant that ought to be banned.
It goes without stating, there’s no “A” rating, and the food is anything but bland.
You might like the taste, but they reuse the waste and some of the food is contagious.
But regardless of that, the patrons are fat, because the portions are big and outrageous.
If you take it on home, you’d better eat it alone. I’t will give you the worst smelling gas.
Unless you’re compatible, your home’ll be inhabitable. You’re better off taking a pass.
But I have to confide it, I...

The World's Most Unappetizing Restaurants - Wong Wong's Menu
I was checking out the food to go by looking through Wong Wong’s window.
I saw the Sum Yung Chick for $6.99 and it sounded good, and it might be fine.
Had to wonder if it would fill me up, sometimes you know, they serve just a cup.
Chinese meatballs had me undecided, cuz the One Hung Low was too lopsided.
I have got to have a balanced meal and this menu thing is a big ordeal.
Wow! The Cho Kon It’s only $9.99, I could take some back to that date of mine.
Or perhaps a little Chu Sum Twat would make the evening’s food for thought.
I’ve never...
