have not been there yet. Here goes.

Crabby TabbyThe way that you’re crying,
You sound like you’re dying…
You can’t get enough of that food!
And then, when I feed you,
You say, “I don’t need you!”
And you’re in another bad mood!
Stop trying to bite me!
I think that you might be…
A little too cruel and crabby!
No matter...

CrabbyWhen wrinkles start appearing
Getting deeper by the day
With liver spots accruing
And the hair is going grey
The early morning aches and pains
A stomach growing flabby
The crows feet and the flatulence
No wonder you feel crabby...

Crabby GetawayYes you read the title right
But let me shred some light
It happened in 1980 when I worked on Madison Avenue
The Receptionist was going to buy live crab for dinner
Well as a friend would, I accompanied her
We entered the Butcher, and there were array of kinds...

What a Crabby DayTo the fish market she'd been fetchin',
Now her stomach linin' stretchin',
Must have been the crabs she ate,
Three crustaceans gone from her plate,
Now poor Grechin's rechin'....

Blank verse
When I Get Crabby and MeanArt, poetry, cartooning, gardening, and love of life keep me going.
When I want to give up, when I am depleted and defeated
I pull my resources together and we take a nap.
Replenishing ourselves in a couple of hours, so we can
wake up and spend time playing...

What Is Making You So CrabbyI'll give you a chance to explain
Why there's always so much pain
In your heart that you are spreading
There's always a storm that's heading
To everyone that you meet
You used to be so upbeat
Full of happiness and joy
Where is that fun loving boy
That was known for spreading...

Comma the Crabby CrowComma, the crabby crow, was a curious bird
He collected aluminum, kind of absurd
Necklaces were swooped up in his beak
His cawing was louder than most bird speak
He was always moving, stomping around
When he was not flying, if he was on the ground
Frenzied and furious today, for...

Night Crawler Nell a Crabby Courtesana crabby courtesan does not do well
when her meanness is seen by clientele
the one I knew named angry night crawler Nell
was so grouchy, she was a very hard sell
the Madame found her a new place to dwell
No one knows what happened to nasty old Nell...

The Abc's of LifeB follows A
And C proceeds D
It's a formula older than time
The lowest sink of
debauchery to the ilks
Of a sort seem sublime
A pail full of
Crabs
Will stay to the brim
Each holding the
Other
In place
That none should struggle
Perchance to escape
the fate some have
Chosen to...
