Our Speedy Mama Duck

our mama duck is not like the others
the other mamas glide like sailboats
she drags us around faster than a jet ski
because she is a Gemini daddy says

Ice Cream Gran 3 - Testing Speedy

Watching from the corner, in her ‘Speedy’ ice cream van
While armed and hooded villains carry out their wicked plan
They rob the bank and make off just as quickly as they can
But Speedy does a wheelie at the hands of Turbo Gran
 
One robber floors the pedal and one winds his window down
To shoot up their pursuer

Speedy Frog

Lunch as an insect in the fog
Flying in a swamp by a log
For a starving toad
Though surely he's slowed
To a speedy tongue of a frog

Speedy Cheetahs

Cheetahs reach speeds of 75 miles an hour
Takes 4 seconds, to reach max, other animals cower
Anticipating a soiree
Chasing a cheetah fillay
After the said encounter, they really need a shower

Speedy

He played his riffs at break neck speeds so he never knew his parts
No woman knew his needs so he never sold his heart
Some say he sold his sold his soul laid away at Wal-Mart
He gets to start again but he doesn't know when to start

Speedy watchin t.v. on his radio
He's always turning the dial
Speedy

Speedy Wind

Tree tops touching tenderly at the thick forest
As breeze blows blatantly ,birds and bees have no rest,
Whistling of wild wind ,wins over wood windows ,
At sea shore,subtle sun shines from surface sky,
Poised by placing pear plant on a good position for purchase,
Reactivated by rolling dust of sand which speeds on like
A cascade of cyclone chasing

Speedy Justice

The scream of the tree hewn down
Is drowned in the chainsaw sound.
In the silence afterwards
All is known
In the blood
On the ground.

The man across the court from me
Is going to hang
At this very moment, he looks straight at me
His eyes pleading, as if he already knows the end.
Others will decide, twelve will discuss
And reason
And argue
And hopefully

Just Like Speedy Gonzales

Running as fast as I can, I am
But I can't keep up with myself
Just like Speedy Gonzales
My mind has really gone south

Must be something I can take no doubt
To slow the damn process down
Might end up in the loony bin
Or the clown of my old home town

Could be something I ate methinks
Known to try different

Speedy Gonzalez - For Andrea

Andrea was late - drove at the speed of light
Traffic cops chased her  - she got such a fright
The cop got out his book
Gave her a stern look
She’s off to traffic school so she now gets it right
