Dream Job

I'll find success when
I capture the essence of
old women, running.

Emotion Meter


When I feel happy,
I (secluded) sing and yell
like when I am sad.

State of the Nation


We live in a time
where grapes and grape flavoring
are not similar.

If something is sour,
then we can dye it yellow
and call it "lemon."

Sociopath (?)


It felt cold in here,
so I opened the window
and took off my clothes.

Semi-annual Harmonies


Facing the ceiling
the drill plays to the tune of
Toto's "Africa."


Floss Rock

Gums slowly bleeding,
she flosses me to the beat
of "Dust in the Wind."


"Adult Contemporary"

"That will sound better,"
he thought, "with somebody's hands
inside of your mouth."

Recession


If time is money,
you would think we would slow down,
cause we're wasting it.

If money is time,
shouldn't we spend it on things
we enjoy doing?

Either

You're always lying,
plastic bib clipped 'round your neck
your mouth open wide.


Or

You're always standing,
with overly-tan fingers
inside someone's mouth.


But

Can't you be sitting,
ready to suck the drool out
and to hand him tools?
