John John Fall Down and Go Boom
Dear John John fall down and go boom
Said some parts will be growing back soon
Right arm and left leg
Won't be walking on a peg
So he won't be singing an old pirate tune...

In the End
Two swigs of tequilla
Strawberry Daiquri
A pair of scissors
Some anger
Pain
Emptiness
An arm and a leg
Meke a good time
For shedding some blood
Tears anyone?
Breaths feel cool
Taste rebelious....

The Boozy Buccaneer
A reckless young pirate named Greg
Drank whisky straight out of a keg.
He cried 'Look at me!'
In shark-ridden sea;
That drink cost an arm and a leg!

Sharks
The sharks in Hawai'i
Just love a good feast
Fresh from Japan
Or somewhere back East
There's always the cost -
An arm or a leg -
But natives will carve you
A coconut peg
So jump in the ocean!
Its really a thrill
To watch baby sharks
Share their first kill!...

Road Hazards
A momentary lapse of reason
While navigating the road ahead
And with antelope now in season
I'm going home with its mounted head
It's too bad how much damage was done
Repairs will cost an arm and a leg
But the deer wasn't the only one
Now I'm left with a hook and a peg...

Deprivation
When I'd give an arm and a leg! --
What's more, every Christmas I beg:
I want a dog! Please please pleeeaase!
But mom complains of poop and fleas.
I'd claim responsibility to give a wash
But my dream of a dog goes-- squash
I plead, I persuade, and I pray --
Promise to walk my dog every day!
No matter how much I blatantly bribed
Mom's allergies leave me dog-prived. :(...

Mill Stones
It cost me an arm and a leg but I think it was well worth the cost,
I am not into jewellery in any meaningful way,
So, it was no great hardship to forego the pleasure,
Of owning the latest piece of bling,
That people seem to want to hang around their necks,
I never bought a selfie stick,
It therefore shouldn't have been a surprise to you,
That I would pay for the return postage on,
The Mill Stone you so kindly sent me on 30 days free trial....

I Have a Date- Ian Munywe
I HAVE A DATE
I have a date,
with the Shylock.
I am raring to trade,
all my valuables.
That cost me,
an arm and a leg.
For peanuts,
with which to bribe.
The landlord,
not to vacate me.
From his minuscule,
colossal castle.
A cloth in one hand,
and soap water in the other.
These gems of mine,
have got to shine.
For Shylock is,
too particular.
Even,
rather peculiar.
All has to be right,
lest in the cold I sleep tonight!

First Monday Into April
FIRST MONDAY INTO APRIL
First Monday into April and the supermart; I arriveTo find all the prices had, rocketed flamin' sky high
So, after leaving an arm, and a leg with the cashierHops home with my bags; with a bit less of a cheer
