A Good Day To Die

A Good Day To Die
     They say it's a good day to die,
    Under this concrete sky,
     But i know i will fry,
    On Death Row, a sigh,
     It's no lie,
    It's a good day,
     As, the Red Sox are away,
    So there'll be plenty of juice,
     And, the people will pay,
    To watch the melee,
     And, it's a tuesday,
    So they all get meat,
     It's cruel,
    But it's better than gruel,
     So, all in all,
    It's a very good day to die,
     And i can't be unhappy,
    'Cos i done it !

Who Are the Fishmen

Who Are The Fishmen
             What the Hell are they,
            And what do they want?
             We may never know ... !?!
            The Fishmen...

A Great Day For Leopards

A Great Day For Leopards  
   It was a great day for leopards,
  Three poachers killed,
   And one maimed horribly,
   It was a bad day for them !
  But it was great day for leopards,
   They had a party,
  And celebrated in style,
   With three deer & an hyena,
  Well into the night,
  They feasted, merrily,
    I'm glad for the leopards,
  But, for the poachers,
    It's a dangerous game,
   The leopards should remain,
  And have the right to exist,
    But the slaughter still persists,
   But at least they had one great day.

Fishworld

Fishworld
    
   Welcome to Fishworld,
  Where the fish are wild, but not free,
   And they may not quite taste, 
  Like they used to be
   Organisms of milleniei
  Ending up in a pie,
   Fit for a king,
  Except for one thing,
   Why on Earth,
  Do they eat the Sea?!

The Elk's Tear

The Elk's Tear
     One fine day, 
    He killed an elk,
     Then went, 
     To put it on the shelf,
    He saw a tear, 
     Fall from it's eye,
    He cried,
     Oh Good Lord,
    What have i done?
     I'm sorry,
    I took away your fun,
     And from that day on,
    He never wore a gun.

Ufo

UFO
  
     UFO
  Where are you now?
     UFO
  Beyond the clouds?
     UFO
  Why do you go?
     Will you save us?
  Or are you a foe?
     I guess,
  We'll probably,
     Never know ?!

Put Down the Gun

Put Down The Gun
  Put down the gun,
 It's had it's day,
  A very primative way,
 Ain't you got a brain, anyway?!
  Put down the gun,
 It's no fun,
  What good's it ever done?
 Except for killing, 
  Adults, children & animals,
 And making some jerk rich,
  Put down the gun,
 And get a life,
  Instead of taking one.

The Ghost of Man

The Ghost Of Man
   In a black dream,
  They appear to be,
   The Ghost of Man 
  An apparition, of multiple layers,
    Emotions, woven,
   In the blanket of Time,
    Trapped, within another frequency,
   Seeking recogition,
    And not sympathy,
   Vibrating,
    In the hope of acknowledgement,
   PLEASE LISTEN !
