his body
is a tree trunk
flowers growing
out of it
he plucks flowers
every night
and destroys them;
destroys himself

big bold leaves falling
sycamore is shedding fast
paper white trunk stark

In sang-froid, sass cords:
Sangoma dashes siren,
Thunder crashes trunk;
Sarky banters with lippy.
Spim for Santa maidenhead.

Strong green limbs and branches shine
Distant storm approaches

I’d hate to be a pachyderm,
My schnozzle such a wacky worm
That though I willed it slack or firm,
Each sneeze would really pack a squirm!

You can feel
the rush
down to
your toes
when the cop
in your rearview
hits the party lights
and your trunk
is loaded
with bad news.

the car you sold my wifes junk
proof you need just check the trunk
apple turnips pear
pollute nose and air
to the lake alas its sunk.

The tree stands stately
A thousand rings betray age
The birds sing like sages
Gnarled trunk suffers all weathers
Light dew moistens bird feathers

Eddie went to the mall full of *****
He was always real proud of his junk
While taking a leak
Decided to streak
Suzie yelled, “Mommy, he has a trunk”

in my grandmother's' old trunk
a silver mirror
keeping the secrets of youth
my face reflecting her past

You’ll find us tied up with regret
We elephants never forget
This isn’t myth bunk
Thoughts can’t stay in a trunk
But play with the brain’s tape cassette

Crazy joe had an elephant,
who he rode with some elegance,
until he wound up in his trunk
and into the drink was dunked
and cursed it's smiling arrogance

Once Harry, at night, won a trunk
That he burgled from Tom's filthy junk;
It was a real wonder,
For what he did plunder
Was gold put by owner Tom drunk.

There once was an elephant's trunk
That accidentally encountered a skunk
He sneezed 40 times
Til he rang his own chimes
Then cried cause he knew how he stunk

Me in a funk
Call me drunk
They say I stunk
Just like a skunk
Pac me away in a trunk
She calling me a hunk
I don’t think that bunk
Wooo hoooo!

There once was a monk named Cur Plunk
Who frequently strayed from his bunk
He claimed he was drunk
And stunk like a skunk
'til his hunk of a trunk had shrunk
