The Fam
Mu uncle Franklin
was a pro wrestler.
He lit up a room
like Nikola Tesla.
My aunt Judy
was a cake maker.
Her cakes were tall
like an LA Laker.
My brother Steve
played video games
-until my mom Kate
called him names.
Kate, to her credit
was a fine, fine artist.
But with brains, forget it.
I am the smartest.

Funny Family
Family is a funny word
It’s meant to mean the world
But to some its lesser than dirt
You can choose who you call family
But what if you can’t
Then the ones you call family
Leave
Run
Hide
From the monster they made you
Then what can you tell that monster for he knows the truth about
The word family

Old Like Me
With intention, I walk into the laundry room to get what was it now,
Let’s see, looking around ~ I know it will come to me somehow.
I’ll resolve this, so back to the kitchen, I carefully retrace my path,
It strikes me, I need some bleach, its like solving a problem in math.
Every morning I gather

Perpetual Blather
They fell in love and married when she was about the age of twenty.
He knew she liked to talk since she'd already bent his ears aplenty!
She could babble at twenty miles per hour with gusts up to forty!
His mother warned him, "Son, this woman will surely damage your corti!"
Even when in a romantic mood and

Little Marie
Little Marie
Is a pretty little girl
With baby blue eyes
And big, blond curls.
She does her homework
And reads about Rome.
But oh, you should see her
When she is at home!
She screams and she cries
And she yells at her mama.
Simple family dinner
Often turns into drama
About who-gets-what
And who-sits-where.
And if Marie's not satisfied
She pulls her sibling's hair.
She kicks what she wants
And

I'Ll Take a Mess of Fried Possum Innards
I’ll Take a Mess of Fried Possum Innards
By Elton Camp
The mountain family made its annual trip to town
It was with their horse and wagon they got around
Sometimes it sort of got them into an awkward tight
Since not a one of them had learned to read or write
They were drawn to McDonald’s by its good

Ketchup Stains (
There is a place that I will never eat at again
I look back at the nightmare when I was ten
Back then not much of a strong stomach to endure what I did
This horror I couldn't keep hid
First of all, you know that back then, when they used the fly tape
It was full of its intended

Family
Family is here, family is there, but do you really want family everywhere?
Mom folds clothes, Dad trims his toes, and brothers we don't even know.
My dog leaves us all kinds of things and I end up cleaning these.
Once you think about it they are really quite fine, but what do I know I'm only
