Rake
Jewelry box
Tote bag
Pencil sharpener

Jon was the type of guy they used to call "a rake"
He once gave me a jewelry box as a keepsake
Lance gave me a tote bag, Hal a silver chain
From Ben I got a pencil sharpener--that man lacked a brain

My dad once gave my mum a locket
she put it in a bowl of chinaware so no one would discover it
My dad once gave me an empty cd case
i looked up for a word to call him in a 3 ton dictionary: he's a nutcase

Just look into my polaroid camera and smile,
Listening to rock music through your ear phone the while.
Only an electric toothbrush gives you that deep-down clean
- That's the cutest discman I've seen.

Jim, the janitor, was one good-looking man
He looked so hot in his jumpsuit I needed a fan
He danced with the energy of a jet engine--what a shimmy!
But, he blushed like a boy when I called him, "My little Jemmy"

He held a letter carrier in his sweaty hand,
ANd left the carkeys on the hall stand.
Like Homer Simpson, he was addicted to jelly doughnuts and lard,
Which made divesting him of his plastic bags of goodies extremely hard.

kilt

keepsake
king-size cigarettes

From my travels I have a fine plaid kilt
And a can of kangaroo-tail soup for my friend Wilt
At each place I went, a keepsake did I buy
Even Egyptian king-size cigarettes for Harry to try

After examining poker chips I brought back from a Vegas stint
With the magnifying glass that's an essential for reading small print
I put the frozen peas out to defrost on top of the sink
And gave my droopy African violet plant a healthy refreshing drink.

Never use a dog-grooming brush on yourself, you may get fleas,
But you can use coffee pot filters to wipe your nose when you sneeze.
Cough drops left by my friend
Stuck the pages of the photo album together, that's the end!

Let me tell you 'bout my office where on liquorice sticks we munch
And eat bagels with lox and cream cheese when we want a quickie lunch
There's a laminated sign saying "staff" on the door
And a laboratory rat that eats cream cheese that we drop on the floor.

Uncle Ben's rice
Empty breadbox
Empty pill bottle
Book of poems

Aunty Beth ate Uncle Ben's rice
Then threw up in the empty breadbox once or twice.
When Ben came home he found the empty pill bottle and Beth dead
With a book of poems by Sylvia Plath under her head.

Laughing

There was a man with a whip in a circus who was known for throwing fits
Until an angry man-eating tiger chewed him up in little bits
In manacles the tiger now resides behind steel bars
In a mansion where you can visit him and other feline stars.

Marlon Brando poster
Rocking chair
Stuffed peppers
Porch awning

The Marlon Brando poster was old and peeling,
And at the rocking chair she was kneeling.
Her world, once as full as stuffed peppers or a paella lover in Spain
Had collapsed like an old porch awning in heavy rain.

Those pills made a nymphomaniac out of Lulu White
For her, number three was just the start of the night
She insisted on sex like a professional nag
And ripped off her nightshirt like a paper bag

Very Happy

Halloween candy
black and white movies
king size bed
lamp shades

Stuffed with Halloween candy,
She watched black and white movies, washed down with brandy,
Lounging, relaxing, in her king size bed
And the, between the lampshades, appeared a severed head.

The pumpkin was smashed near the front door
The pump handle was broken, to be used no more
Vandels had scratched my truck with a pumice stone
And my cat, Puma, and I felt unwelcome and alone

Two dictionaries are not enough, you need three.
Instant coffee is pigswill, you need beans from a coffee bush (oh, rude word - I mean tree)
A picture framed is a picture enhanced
Across the cover of Life Magazine the unspeakable president pranced.

"Quail" got me a double score on the Scrabble board
I felt like the Queen of the Meadow--Oh, thank you, Lord!
Then I played Trivial Pursuit with a question master
I flubbed the answer on quill pen--what a disaster!

Brussels sprouts give Vivien gas,
When eaten with a leg of lamb, alas.
She could fart the tune of Beethoven's ninth later,
But had to go on a diet of instant oatmeal and potater.

My raspberry soufflé turned out to be a delight
Didn't even mind studying Norse runes for my test tonight
Checked the railway timetable for a late leaving train
I'm escaping to the city, 'cause ragweed's addled my brain
