Juicy Fresh - An Epulaeryu

With a handful of spinach
three stalks celery
a delicious red apple,
half a cucumber,
a little ginger,
just juice it

Popeye the Sailorman,
Ate spinach right from the can.
It gave strength to his muscles,
To overcome Bluto's tussles.

Popeye the Sailor Man
sure could pop spinach out of a can.
Strength and pep he would gain.

the smell of money
or of grass burning in flames

The health bill crawls to a finish
thanks to that turncoat, Kucinich,
selling that socialist streak
that renders everyone weak
like Popeye without his spinach.

Popeye the Sailor Man
eats lots of spinach straight from the can.
Then he's strong to the finish, defeating bad guys.
He's a hero in smitten girlfriend Olive Oyl's eyes.

The sailorman named Popeye
better known as Olive Oyl’s guy
seemed nothing more than an affable fishmonger
until he downed spinach to make him stronger
