 Most Chosen

In the beginning earth was made,

Then God put animals and plants.

I said to God, "Let's make a trade."

So God made humans with the chance

Pick good or pick me to pursue.

God knows I got the better deal.

Given that choice, most humans do

Find that I have the most appeal.

Oh, God does threaten now and then

To punish mine on judgement day.

But still God loses and I win.

It's just human to live my way.

As long as humans have free choice,

I, evil, have the winning voice.

 Bubba's Gonna Pay

Bad Bubba shot me with his gun

Just becuz I played a sad song.

Pain and suffering by me was done.

Getting fixed, Bubba done me wrong.

I was only doing my job,

Playing music that others chose.

Bad Bubba injured me a gob,

And my damages, Bubba owes.

Bubba's on notice I want cash.

Both parties are involved in talks.

I'm victim of his crime so rash.

Bubba's gonna pay this jukebox.

Bubba knows what I'm set to do,

Gonna take him to court and sue.

 Wedding Called Off

Max and Buffy decided to

Have their wedding during lunch break.

Off to the church to say, "I do,"

On a bus the couple did take.

Once at the church they waited for

The pastor to come and to say

Words to wed them forevermore,

Starting on this, their wedding day.

A phone call was made 'twixt and 'tween

The pastor and the school from where

Buffy and Max had last been seen,

Both of them were first graders there.

Then the wedding was called off by

Parents of the young gal and guy.

 Clarity

My pal, victim of hit and run.

The operator asked where I

Was, after I'd called 911.

"Eucalyptus Road," my reply,

"28's the address we're at."

The operator asked of me,

"The road name, would you please spell that?"

"Just to assure there's clarity."

I knew I had to make a choice.

Took time, the effort made me groan.

Hearing the operator's voice,

Breathless I got back on the phone,

"I'm so sorry for the delay."

"I dragged my pal 'round to Pine Way."

 Eternally Yours

Long that you're gone still breaks my heart.

You had to leave when young we were.

Too early we were forced to part.

Left alone I had to endure.

I swore to you that I would not

Chase after you when you were gone.

I really wanted to a lot,

But promised you I would live on.

And so I lived on all alone.

There was no other love for me.

Yours was all that I wanted known.

I would wait for eternity.

Now old, about to die I do

So yearn to chase the light for you.

 Divvy Up

My marriage ended in divorce

With no children involved therein.

Settlement took an easy course,

Since the only asset there'd been

Was the debt free house we had shared.

Thus each party was to receive

A one half share the judge declared,

A fair division to achieve.

I admit I was more concerned

With getting even than with fair.

It mattered not we both get burned

If it caused ex grief and despair.

So figured I'd have the last laugh

When I chain sawed the house in half.

 Our Lives First Intersected

You were driving down Fourth Street, north.

I was driving up Oak Street, east.

The intersection, both came forth.

For the moment our driving ceased.

A collision the two cars had,

But thankfully no one was hurt.

The cars' damage was not too bad.

We agreed, neither was alert.

Information was exchanged by

Each other and neither one be

Too upset, and the reason why,

We hit it off apparently.

On New Year's Day, the morning of,

We two did meet and fall in love.
