Extra room for overeating anonymous
Some Americans
Look like refrigerators
No wonder
They have eaten 
Everything that is inside
For years
Now they are building refrigerators
With extra rooms

Premium Member Giving Extra Props To Our Puppet

Long beaked puppet with eyes so devilishly dark
You have such a deep voice, it is almost a bark.
We are going to give you a dog, a hog and a shark.
You will be able to do more story lines, some of them quite a lark.

Premium Member Extra-Galactic Adventure Okay

An extragalactic out-of-town adventure is what you need.
Your imagination fresh like Einstein’s, not going to seed.
I would loan you my purple rocket ship, but it is out of fuel.
Let’s meet back tomorrow in our assigned seats at this boring school.

Extra

Desde sempre
se sabe:
não existe
“espaço extra”
no universo.

Cada pessoa
está aqui
porque tem 
um lugar 
para preencher, 
e cada ser humano
deve se encaixar
no seu espaço, 
no grande
quebra-cabeça
universal,
e sempre fazer
mais e mais.

Extra Step

With all this happening,
Why do I have to go the extra mile.
That Extra step, 
to make sure shes ok.

Why can't people,
ever go the extra mile,
that extra step for me?

To really check if everything is ok,
and to make sure,
that I'm not going out of my mind!

Leaving In Extra Tension

What kind of a being? Has left us in extra tension
Abnormal in thinking, sensation and motion,
Lives on ready food but chews fresh bloody flesh
Dissatisfied with peace so lives in high clash,
Claims having sanity and being perfect by the age
But in saying and doing is fully wicked and childish.

Spare Time On An Extra Day

Spare time on an extra day
squirrel dung stinking up the lawn
eggs frying on the sidewalk
what is to be done of such strange things
finding such things 
to be all around
in the air 
on the ground
strange things everywhere!
must for a smile
for its been awhile
since a grin lit up a face in these parts

Premium Member Extra Terrestrial Doll

When I was a child, I had a stuffed E.T. doll
Everything I did, he too would do it all

He was my constant companion
To the openess skies and the deepest canyons

I never did outgrow my best friend
Though his tattered arms and legs would join his end

I only wish I had him back
To quell my often anxiety attacks

The Extra Wheel

Introduce two friends;
You may become the extra wheel.
Maybe paranoia?
But it's just the way you feel.

Suddenly they're making plans
And you are not included.
Might not be intentional 
Yet still you feel excluded.

Some would shrug it off
Though if you're wired more like me,
You'll be subject to an overage
Of sensitivity.
