Thelonius Monk

Thelonius Monk
we must credit with the first ever Tomahawk Dunk
in between riffs
he was in no way discouraged by his occasional whiffs.

Canary Ivanka

Buy your coal mine canary
From Ivanka's Canary Shop
You'll know you bought a bargain
When it does The Canary Flop

Tomahawk missile launches
Ensure a mining boom
So canary songs can linger
Like when Elvis left the room

So buy your coal mine canary
(Ivanka's are the best)
Knowing birds and colliers
Shall find eternal rest!

We Hear Our Tam Tam Drums

Our tam tams are vibrating
to the rhythm of the hunt.
Mighty bear is in the forest
showing his angst.

His claws are large
as the tips of our spears.
His teeth are as tips of arrows,
which fly to his fur.

Tam Tams are playing,
wounded bear is roaring.
Man outsmarts him with his tomahawk,
but no one conquers the circle of life.

Premium Member Chief Runs With Paws

Chief Runs with Paws was on the prowl.
His trip through the alley ended in a growl.
His war paints showed us he was at the ready.
He held the rat’s gaze, full on and steady.

Chief Runs with Paws gave the beast a chase.
He scooped him up and tore his head off with haste.
His tomahawk was not even used one bit.
The rat’s cousins and sisters pitched a royal fit.
