Satan's Apple

Where Satan sat in Manhattan
The people gathered to fatten 
But too much sin
Can do one in
So now they call it, "Manflatten"

LOL I sometimes wonder how you find inspiration, Rico, and always manage to give us a laugh. "Manflatten" makes me think of an obese woman sitting on her thin mate... Love this! Hugs, Carolyn

Hello Rico ... a bit like where I live. Longwarry was renamed Bongwatty because of a certain drug - thanks again Rico - Lindsay
