You know where he's at
He been in Gotham,
Whole city lit,
He grew and blossomed.
What he touches, he flips,
Moves with caution,
Always asks if you good
Load up attachment.
Map in his hands,
Survives in the woods,
Light up a match
He’s good in the hood.
Hustle forever, forever he should,
Walked through a path
With booby traps like the Goonies would.
He grew up a man,
Can’t leave the trap,
Needs a bag,
Pillowcases with chicken feed in the lab.
Standing on business,
It’s buried in the back,
Delivers the mail
On a mission
Tunnels and trenches,
Benches stay cold,
Carries the heat
Like a thermal
He don’t bend, don’t fold,
Can’t stay consistent at home.
I’m the Joker
Can’t be controlled.

Hens were in the spa for the third time that day
Farmer Jones was angry, for they now had a weird lay
Their eggs were hard-boiled, nothing ready to fry up.
We’ll have to throw away that spa he said to his pup.
If you throw away our spa, we will quit laying they said.
The hens loved sitting in the hot water until their bottoms were red.
Could you give us regular eggs once in a while? Asked Farmer Jones.
Rebel hens laughed, spit chicken feed at him and recited mean poems.

Can't follow 1040 instructions?
Need help claiming all those deductions?

If chickens have feet,
Why run across the street?
Do chickens have teeth?
And can they eat candy?
What do they put in chicken feed anyway?

The turkey's on
Old man Johnson's farm
All wised up this year
Logging on
To Amazon
About mid November
With Halloween out of the way
They were bound to save
On the items they would need
Which worked out great
Cause all they could afford to pay
Was in scratched up chicken feed
The pigs helped in
The ordering
As it's a well known fact
That being turkey's
They're always in a hurry
And ain't nobody got time for that
They saved up extra seed
For quick delivery
When you're on the cliffs edge dancing
Coming down to it
This being life or death
There's no need to take chances
In the nick of time
The package arrived
On the day required
The fateful day
Known to our hero's as shake and bake
November 23rd
On that morning when
Old man Johnson then
With ax in hand stepped outside
Where he tried to think
Had he ever seen
So many cows in his life
In between the moo's
He heard a gobble or two
Which in itself is very strange
Plus the Amazon bill
For umpteenth costume cows
He just can't quite explain

She goosed him to sign the deed,
And kept him on chicken feed;
Soon he became plump
With a loathsome rump
But she could not save a quid.

Shouldn't we give thanks to the millions of hens
Who provide us with eggs without compensence
Just chicken feed
I call that greed
Give 'em a wee chick, a home with a white picket fence

"It is the year of the coq"
Said Alice from Dallas
"Rooster rhymes with booster
and gallus with phallus"
Ladies, prepare for a goose
Grope Meister Trump's on the loose
Not one clucking request
Will ever feather your nest
The Russians gave him a boost
So Grope Meister Trump rules the roost
But if you follow his lead,
"You're fired", with no chicken feed!
The Coq struts and crows
But forgets what he owes
To everyone in the coop
Who did not know "dupe" from poop!

I potted up a plant, with love, for you;
Although I fear it could turn out a weed:
I’ll have to stick a flower on with glue...
It wasn’t something that I really do,
But when I found a bird’s discarded seed,
I potted up a plant, with love, for you.
I could present you with a species new!
Perhaps I’ve got a tree or bush or reed...
I’ll have to stick a flower on with glue.
I cried the day you said our love was through;
It’s sad you say I am not what you need.
I potted up a plant, with love, for you.
I left and didn’t know what else to do...
They say that flowers help with love; indeed,
I’ll have to stick a flower on with glue.
It’s growing huge with spiky leaves of blue;
I gave it whisky, lots of chicken feed;
I potted up a plant, with love, for you;
I’ll have to stick a flower on with glue.

The rooster crows at the break of dawn
Another hour and he will be done
Except occasionally he will breed
For the job he has done, he is paid quite well
Even though he only works for chicken feed
While the little hen must slave all day
To make an egg so she may start her family
When the clutch is set, she works 24 hours shifts
Around the clock; twenty one days, there she sets
Sets until the hatch complete, her brood now sprung
The rooster struts as if he were a king
When in reality he hasn’t done a thing
The little hen sings her clucking song
Urging her growing brood along
Somehow chicken feed doesn’t seem enough
For the sacrifices that she has made
But for the little hen, well, that’s just her tough
Luck

2,222 and Rising
By Elton Camp
That is the number of spammers I’ve blocked
But the flood it has just stemmed, not stopped
For every time that I open my in-box e-mail
Still more scams do my senses irritate & assail
Just today, yet another Internet lottery I’ve won
To get a million bucks, they say, will be such fun
Oh, and just look at this extremely nice surprise
My e-mail’s been randomly chosen for a prize
And somebody has a problem with gender ID
I’ve been selected Woman of the Year, I see
Then, oh my, there has been another plane crash
The bank wants me to claim all the family cash
A foreigner of a business partner is in great need
I can get rich by investing only some chicken feed
Another young lady wants me to sponsor her
“And, I will bring millions with me, kind Sir.”
Again some rich woman is just about to die
To get me to accept her money she does try
Here is an official in the greatest African bank
He offers a corrupt proposal that’s so rank
It makes me wonder who falls for stuff like this
But if they send enough, I guess they can’t miss

I went to the market yesterday,
To buy some needed things;
Coffee and watermelon sorbet,
Pizza and buffalo wings;
Sugar, detergent, and shampoo,
And of course some chicken feed;
Couple of cans of Dinty Moore stew,
I hope that’s all I need!
