while down in the dumps
have to get over humps
along with the lumps

He has a gargoyle on the top of his nose,
a knobby, kibbled excrescence
The gnarly nose is outstanding,
it rules his kindly face like a goblin prince.
Rose hued it is crusted with craters.
Poor old chap, I can’t help but wonder
how age and lifestyle can have led to
a Hieronymus Bosch grotesque
in living flesh.
Be careful what you eat and drink my friends,
beware of the nose that bobbles and bends,
it’s very malformed presence
could be a sign, a tale, a tell.
of a rocky road to heaven or hell.

“Teacher, teacher, do farts have lumps?”
“No Billy, you've evacuated twice this month!”
“Go stand in the corner
Since you are the owner”
His face turned red, classmates were stunned

what kind of a fool
do you think i am
even though even
i am at court and
court my queen
phrenology by gosh
by golly since when
hitting my head at
age ten on a log
would logically
assume my future
through a feature
placed on my body
after birth so what
of my hand
i would gladly take
yours if you're giving
but these lines liken
towards words that
say and speak
of marks made before
you were born so they
must be some sort
of map but not
exactly and
hard to read signs
pointing to turn
left or turn right
making no
decisions
so i prefer
the toes to
tell what's
told and i
also
love
to suck
and lick
them as un
meltable fine
desserts

'Neath the stars...on brisk dark nights
Upon the stage... 'Neath neon lights
Remembering thoughts...of old and new
Mind-boggled sights...of Deja-vu
Watching birth...my newborn child
Watching nature's...open wild
Touching lips...a melt me kiss
Life's wonder's...heaven's bliss
Like tender movie's...(Forrest Gump's)
Beautiful things, give me...goosebumps

Lumps don't belong anywhere on our body
But don't be alarmed you probably need to go potty
If you have a good one
Smile when you're done
Take a deep breath till the next time, don't get snotty

Son you got gone today
they got you while I was away
Mac you knew it was comin
you finally stopped runnin
at least you'll be home someday
Oh baby, this lump in my throat!
Son you left your room a mess
you did it on purpose I geuss
you knew as I cleaned
it would help you get weaned
but to me it's a great test
This damn lump in my throat.
Son you even broke the bed
tells me you're outta you head
maybe I'll leave it that way
so nobody else can stay
ain't no one can sleep in your bed
This huge lump in my throat...
Reminds me when I would hear
the sound you make when you clear
the lump in your throat
then I'd know you were home
then I could sleep without fear
At least you'll be home someday
but to me it's a great test
ain't no one can sleep in your bed
I'll try to sleep without fear
You too, ok?
