looking down at his phone,
the mayor said,“We need less police,
their crimes are so well known.”

than a thousand from a store,
and decided, for the ‘oppressed,’

CHRISTMAS CHICKEN REVOLT
 
Twas the night before Christmas, all through the coop,
The chickens stirred, marching down the slope.

down a dusty road was a lovely house and barn;

The three little pigs
Had lost their wigs
So now all the animals saw
Was three little bald wiggly pigs

They had pen and paper
Pigs writing poetry

rats! With their creeping paws and slimy nests

Who is afraid of the “Big Bad Hen”?
“Not I!” exclaimed Sassafras, 
My bear cub chasing chihuazer,
Just before she got a little too close
To that loud squawkin’ quick peckin’
 “Big Bad Hen” –
Before she knew what...

Grew apart, switched paths, changed forever.

Appeared so deep, the girl of your dreams,
