Watching Wrestlemania With a Baptist

A chokeslam! 
Goodnight sweet prince

Goodnight yawning hippo ****
With rice wine coming out your ears

Boom boom sticks 
A wisecracker talking head

Histrionics at the bandstand 
Eliminated by more than one can shake

Hospitalised due to a 
Finishing move on the concrete 

The poodle evacuated worldy goods 
Outside the pizza restaurant

You left a cigarette on a bicycle seat
To show how gracious you were

Your toying entanglements 
Left chairs being thrown 

A Scotsman strangled
You with his no laughing matter arm

Tables, ladders and chairs
The human lounge, hairy stool and burger beds

Gape and keep a weather eye on 
For those aha visions and afflatus 

Our history teacher watched Smackdown
He said it's great theatre

This is hilarious, Christopher - with or without a Baptist. ~ Gershon
