A jumbo jet
Carrying two dead

The stewardess said 
"I'm sorry sir, 
Only one carrion 
Per passenger"...

To see who goes first, we spin a raw egg.
Come be a sport.
Free beer by the quart.
We’ll let you keep a finger and maybe a leg....

Groaning from my hairline down to my manly thighs
Got an offer from Hollywood
To star in a film bout manhood
They were astounded by my jumbo and sexy eyes...

Hit by a freight train, succumbed quickly, no dry eyes
Poor thing had no chance

If we hire him for emcee, we will be the laughing stocks.
I am sold I said....

TWENTY MINUTES OF TURBULENCE

seat belts fastened
tight

jettisoned away

pilot on the talkie

take our jumbo jet

for a ride
we fly the turbulent skies

When I observe the flight of a bumble bee, 
I wonder how that could ever be!
Such a jumbo-like mass supported by gossamer wings!
'Tis a lovely creature, but beware of its stings!
