Gasless Edibles

Flackmoth wishes science could eliminate
the foul gas certain edibles create,
notably cabbage and baked beans
and when released cause vivid scenes 
of embarrassment to the offending ilk
who do their best to conceal their guilt –
at packed church suppers especially
when neighborly conviviality
and best behavior proximity 
often suffer most, and a stampede 
for fresh air becomes everyone’s need
and the

John Lennon Gets the Munchies

Imagine there's no cupcake
Someone in the house ate yours
No Krispy Kremes or KitKats
No pudding pops or s'mores
Imagine there's no halva 
Behind cupboard doors, oo hoo oo.

Loving the Susquahanna - a Story of Edibles

I am going to sea in a blueberry boat
That danced in the wind by the lee she did float
With vanilla sails and strawberry jib to bend her
Her chocolate chine hull held true on this double-ender

From starboard to port in a raspberry ocean
Her freeboard it romped up and down with commotion
The peppermint tiller was sticky to

Our Animal Edibles

Our Animal Edibles 
We have baby chicks in our yard
The seed we buy we keep the same
We always buy the kind that's "cheap" 
Because they ask for it by name!

Our dog loves sweet potatoes
And avocados are her style
But we make sure she don't get much
Or on the floor she'll leave a pile!

Our cat eats parts

"Your mom shaped us into people, as you see,
And now sound comes from our liquorice lips!"

"Yeah, and it seems my lips are liquor-ish as well,"
I said to myself and not to the dessert,
Whom I tossed up and when he into my
