Succulent Luscious Dreamz...Malodorous tavern’s garret, the codger it accommodates, No more,
Fuzzled in brew, his fuzzy lady, her life she lives to abhor.

My Own Two Feet...The mode of transportation I prefer,
is walking with my feet.
There’s so many things to see

a dirty obsession for that coffin wallpaper
