Depressed
(In response to Jade’s "I Never")
Now that the Christmas solstice,
Suffering has come to past
Prepare for the Spring Equinox
Tiss the time of depressing Lent
When the Yuletide season
Of painful kayas is replaced
With boring days of morose
When the soul is oppressed
Then, like Christ during Passover
Enjoy your last tasteless supper
Of bitter herbs and boiled meat
Before we walk the trail of somber
Strolling the Garden of Gethsemane
Among the fruiting Pecan trees ...

Quid Pro Quo, Ho
I went to the apothecary, because I contracted something quite scary, from a Venetian girl named Mary. I thought she was innocent like Romeo's Juliet. 💞
Hell No!😠 Instead, the witch gave a dose of panty crickets. 🦗 I asked him if had a cure for the itch I had down there?😳 In my jungle of tight curly hair.
He said, "I did have something, but there's nothing left of that something, so how about I give you something else in exchange instead? For the same price as an elixir, I'll set you up with a shaving mug and a straight razor. Just shave...

Prayer for 20/20
Dear God,
To you I pray. This coming year, please send true love my way.
My expectations are few from what I ask of you. She needn't be pretty, or sexy, nor culinary nifty.
She doesn't need to be an intellect like a doctor, lawyer or poet. As far as her temperament, I have no expectations, as I'm very tolerant. I just ask that she be one thing; rich.
Filthy Rich!
For I am tired of being a poor Son-of-a-Bitch!

Coming in 2020
Coming in 2020 will be changes a plenty.
Katie Perry will get remarried.
Taylor Swift will have another hit.
Miley Cyrus will get hitched and have a baby named 666.
Misogyny will show its ugly head when a female politician is assassinated.
The oceans will rise higher. The earth will get hotter.
But despite dire warnings fools will still deny, global warming.
Now I'll make my finale prediction.
There will be a shocking revelation that our President has a cocaine addiction.
Katie Perry will get remarried.
Taylor Swift will have another hit.
Miley Cyrus will get hitched and have a baby named 666.

But despite dire warnings fools will still deny, global warming.

Sisters of the Desert
Where women are chatel
Is a sisterhood of rebels
Those they kill
End up in Hell
Instead of Heaven
With 71 virgins

Why I Write
I write to please
A selfish need
I write to relieve
Anger, loneliness, illness
Writing grants me release
With ink I choose to bleed
The pain inside of me
Writing is a catharsis, indeed
A selfish need
I write to relieve
Anger, loneliness, illness
Writing grants me release
With ink I choose to bleed
The pain inside of me
Writing is a catharsis, indeed

Sorry
I've said I'm sorry so many times before
So of course, I'll say I'm sorry once more
But according to the Love Story's, sweet Ali
"Love is never having to say your sorry"
So, does this mean you don't love me?
Or maybe it's you who owes me an apology?
So of course, I'll say I'm sorry once more
But according to the Love Story's, sweet Ali
"Love is never having to say your sorry"
So, does this mean you don't love me?
Or maybe it's you who owes me an apology?

War & Peace
War is the spawn of Hate
Love is the Angel of Peace
Only Love can defeat Hate
So, here is all we need do
To rid War and let Peace rule
Love and forgive others
As you would have them
Forgive and Love you
Love is the Angel of Peace
Only Love can defeat Hate
So, here is all we need do
To rid War and let Peace rule
Love and forgive others
As you would have them
Forgive and Love you

BROTHER OF THE HUNT
On the trail of a deer
I met another hunter
Someone whom I once called
My wild canine brother
Thousands of years ago
We set aside our fears
To hunt together the bison
And the fleet footed deer
He, with cunning and speed
I, with sharp flint and long wood
Together we conquered the prairie
And every forest that stood
Then when I no longer needed
My wild deer hunting friend
I slandered his good name
And his bloodline I condemned
Today, like him I am loathed
For being a deer hunter
So...
I met another hunter

Together we conquered the prairie
And every forest that stood
Then when I no longer needed
My wild deer hunting friend
I slandered his good name
And his bloodline I condemned
Today, like him I am loathed
For being a deer hunter

My Sexual Fantasy
My fancy
My ultimate fantasy
Is to make love
To a woman
So vigorously,
Completely,
And Satisfactory
She feels compelled
To pay me
If only,
I'd quit my job
Immediately!
