Dead Moose

life’s unstable death’s staid ~ recombobulation comes by getting laid 

clucked a hen to her sterile rooster ~ being axed by the kitchen maid

who was having a fling with the butler ~ he certainly made her grade

He certainly didn’t Tom, and the butler and maid can have a lie on in the morning without him crowing at 4am, a happy ending lol, cheers David

Lynch is known for his uniquely disturbing and mind-bending visual work. His films juxtapose the cheerfully mundane with the shockingly macabre and often defy explanation.

Oh, it's in google. Eminem used it. At least there is an afternoon delight!

Hey Anaya, a dead moose is a person that would seem like they would be great in bed, only to disappoint when the time comes by laying around useless, methinks the rooster was not fertilising the hens eggs, that’s why he got axed, cheers David

The mind of Mr D Kavanagh is indeed an intriguing place. Rarely has an impotent rooster being beheaded brought a grin ‘bove my chin. ;-) Terry

It does seem quite a preposterous scenario Terry, but I’m sure it happens on a regular basis, you grinning I mean, cheers David

Hey Bill good to see you, I’m glad you enjoyed this humorous one, a bit of Hijinks going on here in Monoku style, cheers David
