On Being Michael Jackson: Sixty Batting Eyes
Entrance into the class and to my suprise;
Only one boy to the sixty batting eyes;
What luck, thought I, my odds are very good;
Michael Jackson had not been on a date in a while, as he knew he should.
But this was not an average university class;
Rather than respond orally, one girl stood in a flash;
And did a popping robot dance to respond to the query;
Not even sixty batting eyes kept me from feeling weary;
As the first assignment was a dance routine;
And Michael Jackson, no, not that one, was not too keen;
Only one class was all I could take,
For sixty batting eyes, my butt I'd not shake.

Snow Fall
Eyes up, hands down
See the snowflakes floating round
Dancing in the whispy air
Feel them melting in my hair
Open up my mouth a bit
Hoping they my tongue will hit
Falling backwards in the snow
The fire in your cheeks aglow
You and I and me and you
Are one together through and through
See the snowflakes floating round
Dancing in the whispy air
Feel them melting in my hair
Open up my mouth a bit
Hoping they my tongue will hit
Falling backwards in the snow
The fire in your cheeks aglow
You and I and me and you
Are one together through and through
Booger
A finger in my nose to pick,
Just one booger I hope to flick,
Billy Preston did it first,
A snot from him - by far the worst,
Flew across the room at me,
A crunchy pellet, no time to flee,
Right above my mouth it hit,
And landed on my favorite mit,
My gloves came of, finger at the ready,
Got the booger now, got to keep steady,
The bell's rung; he's running away,
I'll recycle this booger for another day.
