Ma Bagel
Ma Bagel used to run this town
and everybody in it
She held the House Reps in Her palm
and puppeteered the Senate
Unchecked Her business crushed the hopes of each entrepreneur If you craved onions, wheats or plains you had to go through Her
Her reach was omnipresent with prices nearing rape She ruled all with a Doughy Fist that no one could escape
When finally a lawsuit took Her hands from the controls The hungry people growled no more “Ma has me by the holes!”

a tissue tirade –or– putting your nose where it doesn’t belong
i take some real issues with soft facial tissues
being utilized as breakfast plates
they’ve many a feature that could make you reach your
wit’s end in desperate straits
when hot from the toaster your food needs a coaster to safeguard your palm’s tender skin but in this arena a tissue’s no Xena its armor’s insufficiently thin
also on this topic it would be myopic to think a mere Kleenex could guard from getting quite ripped each time that it’s gripped too tight against an onion shard
and you’ve got a brain disease if you like your cream cheese covered with fine tissue lint and unless you like tallow eating crust smeared with aloe is something you’ll wish that you didn’t
so throw that Scott’s from your hand and yell Puffs you be damned if you don’t want your mouth to feel crapped in for optimum flavor do your taste buds a favor and please put your bagel on a napkin

one sunday
undaunted by the coming rain,
the townfolk threw a party —
whipped dairy toppings for the kids
and smoked fish for the hearty
men who raised the church
and gave their tithes to heaven —
all hearts puffed full like onion bagels,
fermented with leaven

Room Service
I drank too many alcohols
To keep my thoughts in order
So when he brought my breakfast
I lambasted the porter
And said he was a commie That his wife looked just like Stalin And then I threw some bottles Which made him put a call in
To the mens in charge Who were quite large And they gave me sneers While I pounded beers But I didn’t care And I let them stare I kicked up my feet But when I went to eat
The tray was filled with bagels Yet when I sorted through that junk Not a one of thems was onion And I knew I’d ordered drunk

leadership is important
i know you’re married
but so am i
and when your bagels pop you know we’ll both know that it’s time
so don’t you worry ’cause i won’t press
and when you say let’s wait you know i’ll sit my onion on its shelf
and soon our spouses join in ’cause the union means we’re all in
and any effing forcefeeders are totally like stalin
