Best of Friends

 Weasel decided to go on a boating trip.
Tiger signed on, because he loved camping.
This was before cellphones, they just wanted to get away.

So, they found a lake, and traveled a ways,
And came to another lake, and traveled away.
And came to another lake with a small island to camp on.

It was pretty unremarkable, except for the lone outhouse
Smack dab in the middle of a tiny little rocky island they were on.

What was remarkable was the stars came out, and it was still as DEATH!
One could see Andromeda in the reflection of the waters,
And trace Delphinus' path through the heavens as the night wore on.

Histories Quotations Unfinished Finished

 Failing at something isn't the worst thing at least you tried, and think of how many people you made happy.

That bears repeating.. to people who have had one too many chocolate covered Huckleberries.

Practicing and Play

 Weasel and Best Friend Tiger
Were playing in their parents garage
FRISBEE!  It was so much fun...
(I must confess), then it got boring
Because they didn't have anything in common
But Parents, and you know what they're like.

So Weasel reaches up an and pulles down the attic ladder
And turns saying, "Let's play my favorite game!"
GUNS! shouts Tiger. Swell, said Weasel, <snaps his fingers>
but I forgot my Faaaavoorite one over at a friends.

BRB! and runs away in the opposite direction on the block,
around the block while Tiger got his bb-gun
And waited forEEVVER.

Then Tiger growled never trust a weasel with a bb-gun

Attack of the Killer Tomato

A killer tomato attacked me today
It flew at me super mad
When I tried to get her with a vacuum.


And NOW! they're selling them at the store. 

I've seen what they can do first hand.


No I have no tomatos today,
What will happen when I next work
Sweep up some killer beans?

Quality Casper



Many times my imagination has snuck up on me,
Having been haunted for so long
The spirit that had left me, had left me with a hole
And then all these spirits cropped up. 

Like something wicked this way had come.
Now that they had left, yet again, cause you know ghosts
Echoed like ripples and starships burning jet fuel in the rain.
Further and further and further and Quieter and Quietly and away.

And then I stepped on a lego, and OUCH!
I had apparently Lost! all my legos.
But I've only found just a couple so Far,
And I feel so empty inside my head, kind of feels nice.

Play it Again Sam

 the fear of a blank page, began to haunt.
The more I painted and the more I wrote.
Soon it began to haunt me in my dreams.
I must confess, they began to multiply in my life.

With bland slates in my relationship.
And brown cardboard, And stationary,
And a cabinet with nothing but blank paper

Soon the dirty deed was done.
And my fears were foundless! For JOY!
There truly is nothing to fear, BUT fear and indifference.
The cardboard got rolled up for firestarters
The stationary was met with proposals in my mailbox
The slates were covered with bewilderment
And I started writing my life again.
