This Guy

They knew what to do with this guy:
they took Benny into captivity.
They knew what to do with this guy:
they certainly wanted activity.

He knew what to do with these guys:
he glared so his eyes would pierce.
He knew what to do with these guys:
he made those eyes look so fierce.

They knew what to do with this guy:
they truly manhandled his frame.
They knew what to do with this guy:
they kicked him, they wanted to maim.

He knew what to do with these guys:
he suddenly gave a sly smile.
He knew what to do with these guys:
from killing him they were a mile.

They knew what to do with each other:
such smiles and such glares were so many.
They knew what to do with each other:
A thing known so well by our Benny.

Exchange of such violence for guys
is clearly a thing of their choosing.
Exchange of such violence for guys
can be so much fun, so amusing.

Benny Got Fever

There was once a middle aged man from Geneva
Who everyone around, called Benny the weaver,
He preferred living in England,
As it was closer to Finland,
His girlfriend lived there, she was a dreamer.
Forgot her address never much of an achiever
Ended up in Sweden, got sick had a fever,
Collapsed in the street, an ambulance came,
The next day was better but forgot his name,
The Doctor sat with him, astute and very clever!
You Mr….the patient shrugged, have a bad heart,
I suspected this from the absolute start,
And unfortunately you have Alzheimer’s disease,
Do you know where you are, who you are please
But Benny forgot, had nothing to share or impart! 
Benny opened his mouth for the first time,
Doctor he said I forget more and more its sublime,
Now I heard what you had to tell me today
I have a bad heart, but I forgot , what else did you say
What a shame, Alzheimer’s, and still in your prime!

Mummy Benny Righteous River

The path of the righteous man

Is beset on either side

Of the torrential river rapids

But i have all the horses on my side

And there are no more fish left to eat

Since the water turned into blood

To be fed upon by a swarm of locusts

In the delta that God forsake

Until the only thing apart from sand left

Was an apparition or a mirage

Of an oasis in a desert

Meet Jack Benny

Remember Jack Benny, but hold your applause
for the master of the pregnant pause
   'Your money or your life, Mr. Benny?!'
    Folds his arms, rolls his eyes ~ Chuckles, then Guffaws!
                    ...Applause!

Jack Benny

Benjamin Kubelsky
Who became Jack Benny
Almost didn't change his name
   ~ It cost a penny!

Benny Hill Revisited

It's Benny Hill here entertaining you all
With antics so silly, hilarious with falls
Irreverent without doubt
Scantily clad ladies throughout
Proud to be associated with this hilarious guffaw

A Canadian Benny Hill

Was told my humor reminds them of Benny Hill
But a Canadian version, what an enormous thrill
He was known for smut
That's how I'm cut
Creating sexual exploits for the guffaws they instill

A Jack Benny Christmas

Working like dogs to get there,
Finally she rested her warm skull against the curve of my neck.
I say skull because the weight of her head had been appointed 
The Carrier of all Grief and Weariness in her pregnant body.
It was then we rolled into our old rhythms.
Our heads resting against each other
While rivers of thought rushed into lazy streams.
Warm light ran along the wooden columns that lead to
The perched squeaks of young children belting out carols.
All the while our one-year-old was putting on a show of her own
Jack Benny would've had dreams about.
There we were in the back of the church, 
Laughing on mute, upturned by joy.

Benny

Born and bred ko kasi that built the boundaries that made me bold and brave with...
Everlasting memories that created the fuel for my natural elegance of self entered and electric self esteem...
Not just and ordinary nothing but a...
Narcotic that arouses not normal expressions but...
Yet leaving one yearning and yellow forward going without yielding!

Bored Billy Benny

Mr. Billy Benny sits, staring at a knife..
As bored as bored can be, in his very boring life.

He dipped a pen in tea - and drank a cup of ink,
The mirror sees him turn into a rosy shade of pink.

He shaved his black hair off - and stuck it on again,
He counted sheep, and 1 to 10, and rusted coins of yen.

He bought a yellow marker and drew pictures on a stone,
He made up jokes himself - which poked his funny bone.


Now, Mr. Billy Benny sits, staring at a knife.....
As bored as bored can be,in his very boring life.

Little Benny Ben

Little Benny Ben told Roald Amundsen
                     Let's go to South Pole with my pretty hen
                               The hen was very stocky
                           Came to Ben with gait low-key
                          Asked for a diary and a gel pen

Benny O Bean

Benny O Bean stole a kingpin
Kept it secret in the cabin
  Wife Sarah was a dork
  And loved the grunter pork
And re-stole the pin for cookin'

There Once Was An Old Man Named Benny

There once was an 
old man named 
Benny.
Who never in life 
saw a penny.
When once saw him 
dollar,
he fainted in a hollar.
O poorest! the old 
man named Benny.

Jack Benny

He was a talented man who was loved by many.
The person who I'm talking about was Jack Benny.
He had a career that was sure to soar.
He was born in 1894 and died in 1974.
Besides being a comedian, he also played the violin.
Benny was treasured by millions of women and men.
He arranged to send flowers to his widow every day after he died which was romantic to do.
George Burns tried to give him a eulogy but he broke down and couldn't continue.
On his program, he always pretended to be thirty-nine.
People loved him because his performances were divine.

(Dedicated to Jack Benny who died on December 26, 1974.)
