Many, many years ago
When I was twenty-three
I got married to a widow
Pretty as could be.
This widow had a grow-up daughter
With flowing hair of red.
My father fell in love with her,
And soon the two were wed.
This made my dad my son-in-law
And changed my very life.
Now my daughter was my mother,
For she was my father's wife.
To complicate the matters worse,
Although it brought me joy,
I soon became the father
Of a bouncing baby boy.
My little baby then became
A brother-in-law to dad.
And so became my uncle,
Though it made me very sad.
For if he was my uncle,
Then that also made him brother
To the widow's grown-up daughter
Who, of course, was my step-mother.
Father's wife then had a son
Who kept them on the run.
And he became my grandson,
For he was my daughter's son.
My wife is now my mother's mother
And it makes me blue.
Because, although she is my wife,
She's my grandma, too.
If my wife is my grandmother,
Then I am her grandchild.
And every time I think of it,
It simply drives me wild.
For now I have become
The strangest case you ever saw,
As the husband of my grandmother,
I am my own grandpa!
She whispered "will it hurt me?"
"Of course not" answered he
"It's a very simple process,
You can rely on me."
She said "I'm very frightened,
I've not had this before.
My friend has had it five times
And said it can be sore."
It was growing rather painful
Tears formed in her eyes
It was hurting quite a bit now
It must have been a size.
"Calm yourself" he whispered
"His face filled with a grin
"Try and open wider
So I can get it in."
"It's coming now" he whispered
"I know" she cried in bliss
Feeling it deep within her now
She said "I am glad I'm having this."
And with a final effort
She gave a frightened shout
He gripped it in anguish
And quickly pulled it out.
She lay back quite contended
Sighed and gave a smile
She said "I'm glad I came now
You made it worth my while."
Now if you read this carefully
The dentist you will find
Is not what you imagined
It's just your dirty mind!!
When you're hanging on to the mountain side
And your nose gets a terrible itch,
That's the time you know for sure
That life's a bitch
When Ludwig lost his hearing -
When the good Lord struck him deaf,
He shouted the same word seventeen times
And the word began with F.
'Life's a bitch', screamed Ludwig.
'I'll drown me sorrows in wine.'
Then he dipped his quill in a bottle of hock
And wrote Symphony Number Nine
Now poets can see what other men can't
(They pronounce the word wind 'wined')
But Milton whined that he naught could see
When the good Lord struck him blind.
'Life's a bitch', quoth Milton,
'Now pleasures have I none.
When a man can't see what he's given for tea,
Oh, where had Paradise gone ?'
'Life's a bitch', said Boney,
'It really isn't nice
When you've marched to the gates of Moscow
And the Lord sends snow and ice.'
'We've got frostbite in our noses
And chilblains on our feet
And yet despit the frostbite
I still can smell defeat.'
These three, dogged by misfortune
Said, 'Life's a bitch I'm sure.
It will bite you on the ankle,
Be you rich or poor.'
I'll never be great or noble,
I'll never be grand or rich,
But I have to agree with the famous three -
Life, my friends, is a bitch.
We sit and we type, and we stare at our screens
We all have to wonder, what this possibly means.
With our mouse we roam, through the rooms in a maze
Looking for something or someone, as we sit in a daze.
We chat with each other, we type all our woes
Small groups we do form, and gang up on our foes.
We wait for somebody, to type out our name
We want recognition, but it is always the same.
We give kisses and hugs, and sometimes flirt
In IMs we chat deeply, and reveal why we hurt.
We do form friendships - but - why we don't know
But some of these friendships, will flourish and grow.
Why is it on screen, we can be so bold
Telling our secrets, that have never been told.
Why is it we share, the thoughts in our mind
With those we can't see, as though we were blind.
The answer is simple, it is as clear as a bell.
We all have our problems, and need someone to tell.
We can't tell real people, but tell someone we must
So we turn to the 'puter, and to those we can trust.
Even though it is crazy, the truth still remains
They are Friends Without Faces, and odd little names.
I'm not too fit, I'll have you know
I'm overweight and rather slow
But when I run, I manage; though
I'm breathless!
Though in the past it was not thus,
I am not one to swear and cuss,
Except that, trying to catch a bus,
I'm breathless!
When as a youth, I used to play
With sweet young ladies in the hay
The girls would be the ones to say:
"I'm breathless"!
At sport I'd always stay the course
I was as strong as any horse
But now, with just a little force,
I'm breathless!
I guess my life has reached the stage
When these things happen at my age.
If all my passions I assuage,
I'm breathless!
I have my annual body checks
And find out if I need new specs.
But sadly, when I'm having sex,
I'm breathless!
No longer, now, do I aspire
To climb a mountain, walk on fire;
Instead I curb each wild desire -
I'm breathless!
I kissed a girl
and got an erection
popped the question
got a rejection
sitting here
upon my throne
smelling like shit
beating my bone
Anger drives through me,
I scream in despair,
Torture my surroundings,
and rip out my hair
I hide away,
Beat my head against the wall,
Release tension and anger,
Escape from life’s thrall
Suicides always an answer,
I think about it a lot,
Because you see…..
In this life we are all just a dot….
A mark….
A mistake.
Cut your wrist
open the vein
see the blood
feel the pain
getting blurry
your heart is racing
body aching
hands are shaking
tears are falling
staring at the knife
you feel a sence of regret
realizing you ended your life
If you could see me now,
what would you say?
What would you do?
Would you hold me and pray?
The things kids at school feel
about their dads, isn't the same as
what I feel. They feel remource
and hatrid, I feel sorrow and pain for all the lies.
The things I could feel, aren't
there. Though I wish they were.
What people tell me to feel
is what they feel themselves.
The years I've spent without
you, were the hardest, but the
worst is yet to come. I feel
I should say these words now,
I love you dad, I don't
know why, but I do know
how, cause I can.
what would you do if everytime you fell in love with someone you had to say goodbye?
what would you do if everytime you were truely happy there would be 10moments of saddness?
what would you do if your best friend died tomorrow and you never got to tell them how you
truly felt?
what would you do if i said i cared about you as a friend?
what i'm saying is i adore you, look up to you, cherish you, i may even love you.
do you know what happens when your flesh is rotting and dead?
your flesh turns to putrid and your clothes start spotting.
your belly blots up and your guts turn to chum.
your eye balls turn purple like over riped plums.
flys crawl in and maggots crawl out.
your skin turns black with a puck afection green.
puss rips from your pores like whip cream.
yes its no fun being rotting and dead, no fun at all, enough has been said.
Being judged,
Being seen for what your not.
Ignorant, stupid, dumb
these things i am not.
Take the knife, Take my life.
Trading sadness, for happieness.
Trading worthless, and uselessness
for a good feeling inside.
Running scared,
charging into the darkness
for once im not judged.
Dark, wet, and lightless.
This is where i belong,
where i must stay.
I am liked by this corner of mine,
if i leave, i shall pay.
