Holy Horse-Dung

   
   The Milky Way is full of stars
      Highway 95, full of cars
   Cigarettes are full of tar
      Tuna fish comes in a jar

   I despise tuna, How ‘bout you
       Its smell upsets my stomach too
   Which is nothing new
       ‘cos I hate salmon too

   What you are reading is neither inspirational
       Nor is it sensational
   As opposed to being aspirational
       It is more like – desperational 

   Perhaps needing a manicure
       and, of course, a pedicure
   Hell, it’d improve with an old fishing lure
       For frankly, this poem is 
          ~ 99 and 44/100ths horse manure


     Critics' Corner:

       ~ I could smell this one coming.  Wolf's usually full of hot gas. 

       ~  A poem that should just shrivel up and die. 

       ~  To compare this to a turd would be to degrade the turd
