The Gift of Altered Being Without Chemicals, a collection

continuation of short nonsensical poetry

                                 

You Never Know

Clover doesn't rhyme

with Labrador Retriever

no...no...

and it doesn't rhyme

with Venus either

no...no...

So I'll sit and wait

 for the right word

to come my way

Will I hear it

echoing through the hall

or read it on my tray?

Well folks here I go

You never know

You never know

Life in Idaho

Steve Harris has 32 kids

and 11 on the way

He spends his time

driving a truck

24 hours a day

He has two brothers:

Fred and Joe

He has two sisters:

Fred and Joe

They live somewhere in Idaho

and they like it this way

So what can you say?

Boomerang Fish

I rode through the air

on the back of a giant silver fish

Then it turned around

and came back to me

"we just don't care about boomerang fish"

she said wryly

"we just don't care"

Air Ambulance

They say we have no ocean now...

just a light breeze

It makes me nervous

The air ambulance

is going my way

through the desert today

Hey, you...

you know what I need

so keep your voice down

I'm trying to breath

You tear me up

You really do

So let the air ambulance

come on through

Digital Grandfather Clocks

I wonder if you're one of

those notorious wimps with a background

Wanted:

for smuggling digital grandfather clocks

into Mexico's underground

I guess you can be

just about anyone at all

I'll never really know for sure

You left on the #28 bus

now you'll always be obscure
