pack it, fill it.
Tomato, mushroom, salami,

Top it all with cheese.
Serve me warm, if you please....

The local Zookeeper decided that he wanted Dragons’ cute penguins back.
So he offered to help make this Easter, for them, way more special, that’s right!
He made them anchovy filled, jello colored eggs for them, to collect, such a delight!

Sailing the high sea on the river,
Sinking while staying afloat,
Think I’m in danger of drowning,
Where would I find me a boat?

Nice here down by the river,
Floods caused the bed to dry up.
Eat Treacle & Anchovy sandwich,
Drink tea, from a broken egg...

wink wink light the fuse and
bow only before your own image
for we are each a TV studio
with really huge detector molecules
recall that consciousness is tunable
you need only space your characters
and employ the 11th Commandment play fair
since my next...

I savor a hearty repast of meat and smashed pertaters,
And a salad liberally laced with fresh termaters,
But spare me anything slathered with anchovy paste!
('Tis just a matter of my discriminating taste!)

when faced with anchovy paste
splattered most steady,
tossed like spaghetti
in haste with no time to waste....

Maurice was crammed full of buttock-clenching humors
                        One day in the month of May he poked Jannie's tumors

If given a choice of sausage or pepperoni,
or perhaps mushroom, peppers, or anchovy,
this is what I would say instead:
“I have tried a blonde and brunette, how about a redhead?”
There is a pizza place owned and operated by Luigi.
He has some of the cutest girls making...

Hey you! 
Yeah, you. 
Know what I plan to do?  
I’ll spread Vaseline all over your windshield 
And Krazy Glue your wipers in place.  
I’ll insert sewing needles, point up, 
Into your driver’s seat cushion.   
I’ll put dog poop in your...
