up in the sky
on some invisible rails
screeches to a halt
as a couch is on the tracks
such horrors of horrors
the media comes in seconds
live
minute to minute coverage
of the astro train who is under hostage
to the couch
evil couch
it had a rough life
all torn and scarred
it reeks of the booze
and is covered by sprinkles
of the most pure cut fairy dust
soon swat arrives as does the fbi
and we have a national crisis here
the couch appears to be arab
it must be a terrorist
and they are planning to destroy the american
society with this suicidal killer, couch.
Negotiations are opened
but the couch refuses to speak.
the police chief pleads for a calm resolution
but he gets no reply
swat goes in
and uses their automatic guns
to put thousands of holes into the couch
the love seat tears apart
and becomes nothing but a few splinters
and bits of fabric on the ground.
The news reports go in great detail that night
about the crazy arab couch, that took hostage of the
astro train in order to destroy the american society
we so dearly love.
on a side note
a little boy killed himself today as he felt unwanted
now lets go to the wacky sides of sports with jim
