Hope he feels better
Now that that thing’s been removed.
What the heck _was_ that?

“What the heck _was_ that?”
my piano teacher asked;
I had no answer.

I had no answer
to any of life’s problems.
Then I saw the light.

Then I saw the light
Bulb and learned how many were
Needed to change it.

Needed: to change it.
Leaving it just as it is
Appears dangerous.

sparrows in moonlight

Sparrows in moonlight
The bane of my existence!
Who invited them?

Who invited them
To my bar mitzvah, and why
Are they eating ham?

Are they eating ham?
I though we were going to
Serve deviled eggs first.

Serve deviled eggs first,
or so the Devil told me;
why should I listen?

Why should I listen
For the fluttering of wings?
Turn up the white noise.

Turn up the white noise
Turn down the black noise, oops, hope
That’s not offensive

Kicking, punting, and field goals
That’s special teams, man

Wheelchair basketball in the
Special Olympics

Can’t say I’m surprised
That the young cat keeps getting
Up on the counter.

Up on the Counter
Didn’t get the airplay that
Up on the Roof did

Up on the Roof did
not chart as well by Taylor
as The Drifters hit.

As the drifters hit
The shore, they tumbled a bit,
Like any flotsam.

Like any flotsam,
Throwing stuff overboard is
Littering at sea.
