This Three-Fifth Stooges moron quartet
are brain-slow slugs you don’t wanna IQ know

Just sitting on a milk crate,
waiting outside of the MGM studio gate
Moe, Larry and Curly passed my way

They were yukking it up,

right by where mom is cooking

One evening Bob nervously said
I kinda like three in a bed
She said I’ve got friends
And each of them tends
To share the desires in your head

The next night as had been arranged
His ankles and hands were...

I was beginning to act a little bit weird, but so were others I know.
Then suddenly the sun...

          a Golden Retriever, white fluffy bunny and a Pug.

My golden ego soars higher than yours
I can hold my breath longer underwater
of course,
because my publican lungs are stronger than yours
I can outshout your taxing voice 
to the heavens with a prideful text roar
I’m the...

Coffee, it is evident, is not Sherry's cup of tea;
She likes spirits like sherry and brandy
and knows the ropes of winemaking to a tee;
An oenologist by profession, like her pal Brandy,
found her niche in viticulture....

Abominable holiday season greeting to the have-nots me and you
Bombshell tabloid sleigh bells got those ear holes ringing
Cut the tax gift wrap ribbon, only good cheers for the wealthy few
Ducky Little Donald beaky wacky-quacky curse...

Loyalty is my middle name as I wait for her all day,
oh, and when that door opens I bark and start nagging!
Slobbery wet kisses I give saying “I love you” in my own way,

Brady was the naughtiest puppy in the whole city.
     At night such a baby, during the day sassy and witty.
He had eight siblings and must have been defiant.
Oh no! My naughty...

Has mankind really changed in several thousand years?
The Canaanite and Norseman would cut down the trees,
and propped them up as gods, to appeal to them as they please.
All the while never realizing that the trees...

She lowers her legs down -
the woman.
I try to recall a name, three come to mind, they don’t fit

JUST DUCKY, WHY?

Just as eating too much cake 
will give you a bellyache,
genuine con is always real fake

An artful eye can chiseler tell

I’m Bruce the goose
And fly with geese
I follow the rules
In forming V’s

And being a goose
Sometimes I lead
Then play caboose
To lessen breeze

Fly much better
If we proceed
With a...
