two boys skimming the edge of fear,
a twenty-year-old shadow
and his seventeen-year-old brother,
riding the spine of Interstate Ten,
from Tallahassee...

Refurbished Nursery Rhymes: Old Mother Hubbard, a Cautionary Tale
...other Hubbard wound up on the menu instead.
This tale has a moral,
As some nursery rhymes do,
And this one's a little bit gruesome, it's true:
A pet owner's job's
To protect not neglect him,
So feed yours each mealtime,
For if too long overdue,
Your "Butch" might be inclined
To make a meal out of you.

Marriage-Go-Round: the New Family Dynamics
...Round 1
An effeminate young husband named Ben Dawes
Sought a sex change in spite of his in-laws.
He made the decision,
And got the incision,
And he now has a yang where his yin was.

With him as the bride,
And she'll be the man of the house.
Their life should be s...
