SO RAISE YOUR TOAST
RAISE YOUR GLASS!!!
SHE KICKS BUTT>>>UU
SHE KICKS ASS
HERE I AM
HERE I STAND!!!
I JUST HOPE ONE DAY SHE UNDERSTANDS!!!
The zephyr on the weather vane
now pointing North
and this constant back and forth
Finally taking Standing Hampton down Candy Cane Lane
The Red Barron shot down in flames
(Thanks for the tour of the upper balcony M'lady)
Maybe, we should put more things in cans.
We’d all feel better then.
Food doesn’t appear for us on a steaming plate.
It piles up in our pantries.
When I get home,
Cans get stacked, neatly.
Maybe tomorrow,
I’ll make that tomato soup.
The can will dance until the top twists open on the edge of the counter.
Laughing, dancing.
I could be happy if I wanted.
Maybe I’ll make the canned pasta instead.
I am AI
I think I can
I can AI
It's sealed within me
I will AI
Only when
The cupboard is bare
And the can opener is handy
My AI is canned,
as primordial soup
Campbell's.
day and night it haunts me so,
yesterday you were bovine,
swine,
or rodent,
now gelatin surrounds you,
confined in tin,
fresh by chemical and sodium,
now resting in the cabinet,
until I peel you open today,
or in two years?
no matter the day,
you are just as beautiful
as the day I bought you,
and the one next to you without cost
'Hullaballoo,' 'Hee-Haw' too
Laughter and singing canned
~ wear a headband
Words of evening she speaks
To him
I act if I don't know
There in secret places
Is where they wish to go
Mornings were I labor most
To be neat and clean
She wholloes beneath him
To be spiteful and mean
Yeah than when separation
Is the antidote
I am all he has
It's when I mean
As much

Man Canned Tableau
Insult as men stare,
More frequent than rare,
Holding Partners hand
Passerby, he's canned,
Boobs, bottoms or legs,
Stop it now she begs!

Lumpy, limp spinach
so uninviting
Steaming spinach souffle
so exciting
Popeye downed the first kind
straight from the can
Olive never had to learn
to make souffle for her man
Cartoons implied: Canned spinach
gave Popeye superpowers
'Course 'Wonder Bread' built strong bodies
twelve different ways in half an hour
Salmon steak or fillet
Choose fillet or salmon
steak
Either way I can get it
Is alright with me
I enjoy a salmon steak
Cooking on the barbecue
Or the fillet is tasty to
Either way I enjoy it
Salmon from a can
Is handy to have
For a salad bowl
Or making salmon
patties
When a Royal Irish Lancer
Was told he had prostrate cancer
He shouted with glee,
"I got it for "FREE!"
Now he serves as Cork's break-dancer
You-tube videos for ready made canned meals
Are tasted here for the real deal
A chicken in a can is a sloppy mess
Scored low for taste not being the best
Then there was bread in a can made with molasses
With canned cheese on top more than impressive
The canned hamburgers are not good
Washed down with beer makes it better than it should
I suppose when the zombie apocalypse comes
We will be happy when these cans are undone
But I wonder when the end is near
The dead would be grateful not eating this canned gear.

Who knows what lurks in the hearts of man
All seems normal outside but imagine if you can
A hidden desire to run amok
Act like a total schmuck
Screaming in the streets chomping on canned spam
Who knows what sillies lurk in the hearts of man
All seem normal outside but inside, imagine if you can
A hidden desire to run amok
Act like a total schmuck
Screaming through the streets chomping on canned spam
Canned jam fans ran to
buy "Jam by Jan" jam Jan canned
at the Jamboree!
