| 'Twas the night before Any Thing, and all through deep space, Nothing existed - time, matter, or place. No stockings, no chimneys. It was hotter than hot. Everything was compressed in one very dense dot. When out of the nothing there appeared with a clatter A fat guy with reindeeer and something the matter. His nose was all runny. He gave a sick hack. "Oh, Dasher! Oh, Dancer! I can't hold it back!" He huffed and snuffled and sneezed on AH-CHOO! Then like ten jillion volcanoes, the universe blew. That dense dot exploded, spewing out stars, Earth, Venus, Jupiter, Uranus, and Mars, Helium, hydrogen, the mountains and seas, The chicken, the egg, the birds and the bees, Yesterday's newspaper, tomorrow's burnt toast, Protons and neutrons, your grandma's pork roast. The universe expanded. The guy said with a wheeze, "Who will ever believe the world started by sneeze? So let's call it something much grander, all right? Merry BIG BANG to all! And to all = Gesundheit! " |

I think that I ain't never seen A poem ugly as a spleen. A poem that could make you shiver, Like 3.5.....pounds of liver. A poem to make you lose your lunch, Tie your intestines in a bunch. A poem all gray, wet and swollen, Like a stomach or a colon. Something like your kidney, lung, Pancreas, bladder, even tongue. Why you turning green, good buddy? It's just a human body study! |
