Can't Fool Me

Don't believe everything you hear

Tell me you're an alien

Or a ghoul who drives a hearse

I likely won't believe you...

After all, it's April first

You can tell me that you're preggers

With Justin Bieber's baby

Or that a werewolf bit you

And now you might have rabies

Tell me that it turned to sand,

The water in your pool

Or that government wants  what's best for us...

Forget it!  I'm no fool.

That was so funny I laughed out loud. You mean the government who told their soldiers to wear thick boots and sunglasses when they watched the first atomic bomb being detonated? Oh ok...
This was hysterical:

You can tell me that you're preggers
With Justin Bieber's baby
Or that a werewolf bit you
And now you might have rabies

I'm a pregnant hermaphrodite that pole dances by night and king of Earth by day. Really I am.

A really enjoyable poem.

Did you get yourself pregnant? It should be possible.

Ha! Sounds like someone has been getting their "facts" from the National Inquirer. Good fun--did you read it to your students?

[Rita L. Sev]

Thank you, Samuel! I have not read it to my students yet - no school today. I will share it with them tomorrow (they are really quite patient with me...)
