Paw Paw's Shrimp Shed

Peel 'em and eat 'em,
All you want.
To yo table straight from da Gulf.

Cooked wit corn and taters
an' sausage dat's smoked.
Buy 'em today while we're stoked.

Paw Paw caught 'em in his lil shrimpboat.
Maw Maw cooked 'em in dat big 'o black pot
outside on da fire dat was so hot.

Tante Rose made some sauce
wit mynaise 'n ketsup.
Den she added da hot sauce to spice it all up.

So y'all come and get you some.
Dey big and dey fat.
Paw Paw's Shrimp Shed is where it's at!

Premium Member A Tale of Kosher Shrimp

Hymie Frankel sat in a restaurant
   in the courtyard of a mall
Hymie was aware for sure
  that the fare wasn’t kosher at all

The Rabbi of Hymie’s synagogue
  just happened to walk past
When he noticed where Hymie was
  he let out an awful gasp

Hymie, friend, what’s eating you
  You know you mustn’t dine here
‘Now don’t you fret, Rabbi Cohen
  There’s nothing whatsoever to fear’

‘You’ve seen me order, have you not?’
  ‘Yes, I have, but what’s that got—’
‘And you’ve seen me eat the shrimp they brought?’
  ‘Yes, I have. That’s why I’m so hot—’ 

‘Then, good! You’ll surely agree with the court’s decision  
   ~  I’m dining under strict Rabbinic supervision!’

Premium Member I Love Shrimp

I love shrimp
Oh how I love shrimp
Whether it be breaded
And deep fried
Or steamed
With melted butter
On the side
I love shrimp

Shrimp

As I stepped inside the building
A simple smell left me content
I spoke my wishes to a lady
And away with her I sent

I could hear a gentle sizzling
My stomach growled and arms went limp
A buttery garlic smelled appeared
And so I saw the Endless Shrimp

There were only five choices
But five choices are all I need
From the sweet and spicy wood grilled
To the linguini I shall feed

On to the second platter
I shall become a blimp
For there are no limits
To the Endless Shrimp

How do you think they do it?
What makes it so good?

By the time I had my third fill
I began to feel some pain
My stomach stretched just like a balloon
And so here ends the reign

Over fifty of them consumed 
And to the car I’d limp
And never would I forget
Tonight’s Endless Shrimp

Shrimp In Lobster Sauce

Shrimp in Lobster Sauce


Tucked in a booth in back,
the last customer of the day 
cracks a fortune cookie,

sips Oolong as Mr. Hong
locks up. It’s time for his supper.  
Two tall sons bear

from the kitchen dishes
his wife won’t allow 
on the menu. 

Platters of meat
red, green, brown 
huddle and steam 

in the middle of the table.
When the Hongs
drop in their seats

chopsticks fly 
like beaks. So many bright teeth, 
quick as piranha.

Shrimp Fried Rice

What we have together is complicated.
It very well may be toxic.
But I am glad it happened.
I ask if you love me.
The physical representation of thirst. 
You curve my appetite in so many ways.
I am full in knowing that you complete me.
Such a sensual smell.
My mouth burnt by the hot.
My taste buds go insane each time you are near.
Watering at the mouth.
I've eaten too much but know you fulfill my every need.
I often picture a life together with you.
Seasonal aroma, stirred and mixed.
Following your lead.
We grow older.
At times you upset my stomach.
I regret the decision of going to find you.
But this is the same reason I am drawn towards you.
Licking the corners on my mouth.
You fill what hunger I have and I love it.
Because I love you.
We may have our spats but that's anyone that confuses misunderstanding.
I am sincere in the way I am reminded.
Yet selfish in the way I am spoiled. 
I love you because you always commit with purpose.
One spoon at a time. 
To wake up and have you here with me.
I wouldn't trade anything for it.
To wake up and have you beside me, 
To wake up and ask is that Shrimp Fried Rice on your breath

Peppered Shrimp

On a drive thru Mandeville one fall,
My Dad stopped at a roadside stall.
He bought red shrimp in bags of 
paper,
The aroma was the scent of shrimp 
and pepper.
Baked so well, there was no need to 
shell,
Popped one into my mouth, my Jaw 
fell.
Fire in the hole I yelled, as my sis 
snickered,
She bit into hers with gusto, she was 
not bothered.
My Mom,prepared, handed me a 
bottle of milk,
Took two sips to quench the flame 
from peppers ilk.
As bad as it burnt, that shrimp was 
so tasty,
Bit into another again and again milk 
now less hasty.
An acquired taste this was, this 
explosion,
Of seasoned pepper and shrimp so 
delightful,
Before I knew it I had munched 
through my bag all full.
Tears in my eyes, pepper had my 
tongue wrapped,
Reached for my sis's bag, only to 
have knuckles rapped.
Now with none to munch, it truly set 
in my colon,
Fire below was my scream, looking 
forlorn.
Lactose intolerant, milk and pepper 
shrimp?
 Relief stop in the bush, rectum in full 
crimp.

Hangs With Shrimp

Ariel in the water always takes a dip,
and she hangs around lobsters as well as shrimp.
Her dad is the king,
and he enjoys it alot when she does a song sing.
Friends of different species of Ariel do vary,
and a glad heart she does carry.
Ariel is a true friend,
and will be until her life does end.

My Shrimp Spring Onion Roll

People love at first sight
Friends love me for my first dish
With my shrimp spring onion roll 
This consists of medium-sized shrimps
Bacon, beans, ham, egg, cilantro, basil 
And lastly it must be onion
Mix and wrap in a Shanghai roll
Deep fry till look brown and taken easy
Serve a bowl right away freely on the table
People are heartless when it's favorite
The dish is taken easy with a smile
Only gone swiftly not more than just few minutes.

Jack

The new resident's name is Pam
She's brown and her webbed feet slam
The bowl we live in shakes from her
Kicks to swim, I stray from lure

She is blind, she cannot see
Due to that, she cannot feed
She grew hungry, more and more
Until her will against me tore

She kicked toward me,
Smiling happy
I jumped to escape
The misery she'd make

I jumped, she's swim up
Until my luck
Ran short
I left the fort

The world outside is so dry
That is what is can disguise
I try to just back in
But I get father than I've been

Hopefully someone will see me
Before I simply die
But after a while, I am not me
The world is just too dry
