...Everyone enjoying
Beers moving
Wines moving
Forks jazzing with plates
Music in the air

Eargasmically one to revere
Sweet pulsating sounds

Are these guys jazzing me, do I seem like a sucker magnate
This really can't be true
It's like an invisible zoo

Jazzing Up the Shower
...If you have a shower
There is one thing that is certain –
You either have a door of glass
Or else you have a curtain.

He’s jazzing up the church,
Making Jesus controversial,
Leaving life in the lurch.
It’s fine to have excitement,
About any religious thing...

A subject near and dear to my heart
Why don't sheep shrink in the rain
It's puzzled me right from the start!
A theory that sometimes is bandied abou...
