My pet black cat looks so fat,
He's always drinking milk,
He says he only drinks so much,
To make his hair shine like silk,
Personally I think he's fibbing,
I think he's just a greedy cat,
If he'd only reduce his intake,
He'd still look shiny, but not so fat.
Listen to poem:
Shadows are stiff
hard-edged,
all telling,
not fibbing
nor forgiving.
The mind's eye is blind
to the shadowy-side
we carry in ruck-sacks behind
our backs.
Shadows are brutally honest,
dark and gloomy,
sketches of self in outline,
that we would rather lose
'cause they can't be
colored in.
Sing this to an Old Sea Chanty
Remember the old song
My Bonnie lies over the ocean?
My Bonnie lies over the sea?
It would not leave my mind alone yesterday, so I changed it up.
Feel free to sing this:
My body lied with such a devotion!
My body lied to him, you and me!
Rumors were put into motion.
Oh bring back my fibbing to me!
Bring back!
Bring back!
Bring back my fibbing to me, to me.
Animals came alive on my new Christmas tree
In a vintage blue car from about forty-three
I heard the zebra first, he yelled out, “Whee!”
Elephant was coaxing them to go to New York City.
I know that you think I am fibbing or being witty.
My imagination is not that great, it’s not pretty.
A chimpanzee grabbed my chin and was kind of spit-ty.
I was so irritated I encouraged them to go to New York City.
Yes, it happened, I saw it for myself the liar said
He is fibbing if his mouth is open said cousin Ned
he claimed he saw a dairy cow jump over the moon
I watched a naïve teenager flutter and swoon
the rest of us knew this con artist as kind of a chit
we walked off into the sunset, not believing it a bit
the teenager was asking him questions about the cow
We rolled our eyes as only non-believers know how
What is a land line? I asked twenty-seven third graders.
None of them knew, it was an antiquated term in 2022.
I told them that if they had phones that stayed in one spot…
That is a landline, we used to have them all over, believe it or not.
They did not believe me. They thought I was teasing them.
They could not imagine a phone attached by cord to a wall.
She is not fibbing, we used to have them in homes said Jim.
They are pretty spoiled, these eight-year-olds, three feet tall.
