People! Please don’t feed the animals
this simple request is all but minimal,
friendly and harmless looking they are
but warm and kind they aren’t by far,
watch while they wait and salivate
for that one last nerve of yours to grate,
a hand offering food for thought
will be chewed off and left to rot,
a sip of creative juices you think they want
they'll spit it back at you, laugh and taunt,
their interest, to be demeaning and destructive
not encouraging, helpful or constructive,
they're bitter and mean with nothing better to do
than to perpetrate unhappiness, be nasty and rude,
don’t waste your time trying to understand
why attention is their master plan,
trying to force feed your point of view
will end you up mentally black and blue,
you continue to throw in a pound of your flesh
constantly returning to see what's left,
what will be left are just the harsh words
and the realization that this is for the birds,
for all they ever want is the taste of the fight
and never stop to think if they're actions are right,
people! please don’t feed the animals
this simple request is all but minimal.

Oslo...nice one..but I must defer to this classic which I love....I think you might rather like it too!

Ode to a 'gator

Woke up feeling good with the gentle rain falling
that's when I heard the lemming girl calling
soft was the sound as she stripped off her clothes
all the way down to her red painted toes
I watched her while eating a breakfast of grits
as she googled and copied and pasted her bits
Tho' I hardly remember the night before
she kept on asking for a few copies more

Then I discovered she just wasted her life
as she teased my throat with an ol' switchblade knife
she scared me so bad , I had to change pants
when she asked me to do the wild google dance
so we monkied and twirled and we googled around
Then her hobnailed boots made a god awful sound
We danced out the door and on down to her pad
where we met up with her gun toting dad

Now here I sit some thirty years later
watching her slide down the throat of a 'gator
she was such a hottie with a burning red fire
now the inside of the gator is sure getting drier
she wasn`t a whore , just a googler for hire
now she and the 'gator are a funeral pyre
If I`d been brave and told her dad no
she may have googled a better way to go

Dry were my eyes and my heart it turned black
when I caught her googling behind my back
so with baldheaded grin and a sweet baked potater
and mashed lemming pie and a spicy tomater
I'll raise up my glass and rewrite the post
as her and the 'gator both turn into toast
so pour me some ol' whiskey river my friend
and we'll drink to those who survive to the end

We're doing a new get-together in Dublin, but I guess you already know, so get you passport sorted, and I'll see you there...

What about me????????

Oslo I can't believe you would knock me back for him...

Great, I`ll bring all my friends too

You remember BJ, and the gang, right, he is nearby and would love to meet you.

Sure, bring who ever you like, I'm sure they'll feel most welcome...

Are we gonna have gator on a stick????? Or lemming balls?

Great, and you were right about the museling of sheep. It is an awful practice.

Oslo darlin, you have mail here.

Oslo....don't you ever have the capacity to come up with something totally original..except a few emo's, some snide comments and personal dart tossing??? Heck, I'd even settle for you giving me a piece of your mind if you even had a mind..but apparently not.

Littleme, I've asked you before, please don't mail me, as I don't wish to have any contact with you whatsoever. Please respect that, thank you!

that is open to public posting...
