Offensive is a common word,
And used a little much.
Some will use it for a crutch,
For every little thing they heard,
And then speak out as such.
Everything’s offensive.
It really just depends,
On who it least offends,
if it’s that extensive,
And how the statement ends.
Say perhaps a garden bed,
The home of many flowers,
Beautiful are thoughts of ours,
But offended those who dread,
The pollen from the flowers.
I drove to the grocery store,
A statement thought concluded.
But drivers I had not included.
Offended plus those even sore,
Like stores that I excluded.
Eating meat, it once was fine,
And praise befell the griller.
Now my picture is a thriller,
From the comments said online,
With me the vicious killer.
I’m not sure but maybe most,
Of those I send this to.
You will question what to do,
And maybe you will even post,
if I offended you.
Dip it when you have problems,
Lick fingers as if there are no burdens.
Find myself eating in plates of sorrow,
Chew flesh like there’s no tomorrow.
Fire the aches in a griller,
Roast the angers in a shriller.
Fry everything on the pan,
I’m a lone stress-eating man.
Feel heaven with this food,
Don’t even know if there is a good…
Just taste things like it’s a first.
Forget stress and just die of thirst.
Don’t even care with my weight.
Let me eat fries when it’s too late…
I just eat when it’s much!
Got these munchkins in my pouch.
I don't know why she's done it,
She normally is quite sane,
Mum said she bought a new gorilla,
It really is a pain.
She said she put it in the kitchen,
Not far from the sink,
What if I want to go to the tap
And get myself a drink.
I wonder how large it is?
If it will sit with us to eat?
I wonder what we'll name it?
And where it's going to sleep?
But when I tip-toed to the kitchen
A large animal I didn't see,
It was just an electric griller
And mum cooking lunch for me.
