old yeller charged
like sack of bricks
razor teeth
jaws of death.

hickory stick
upside the head -
works every time.

.........

go ask Alice

jump down rabbit hole
turn on flashlight,
stare at rabbit.
wrong address.

........

chasing the Jones -
fastest road
to nowhere.

.........

when hand hurts
take aspirin;
when foot hurts
take ibuprofen;
when head hurts
take codeine;
when soul hurts
take vacation to desert island.

on desert island:
build lean-to
read sutras
drink coconut milk
talk to friends on iPhone
invite famous actress to dinner
practice walking on hot coals
watch outer space with telescope
write book about exciting island life.

when rescue ship arrives
send note to President:
"thank you for your concern;
please rescue rest of world
then come back
to desert island.
thank you."
