The boy stood on the burning deck
His hair waved in the breeze
His HEAD bobbled about and nearly fell off
As the fire forced him to his knees!
I haven't been here for some time.
I must confess to great joy as I read so many excellent and original works. The response has been most heartening, and I truly trust that so many people have enjoyed themselves as they have passed thru here. Clearly, this has to be one of the greatest creative successes I have ever had and even if I remain unpublished, I feel SWEET success right here and now!
The boy stood on the burning deck, He dug deep into his pockets and fetched a dollar, The flames they roared around and above his neck, But sadly, all they did was incinerated the cash and boy didn't he HOLLAR!
The boy stood on the burning deck,
He dug deep into his pockets and fetched a dollar,
The flames they roared around and above his neck,
All they did was incinerated the cash and boy didn't he HOLLAR!
I said to myself the boy was on the burning deck
This place is so much hotter and bleak
There are people here and there and here some more
But all the cash I managed to raise could get him a 2bit whore
The boy stood on the burning deck
His life was clearly little more than a speck
It is resurrected, is this a good or bad deed
We will have to wait and watch the seed!
The boy stood on the burning deck
Alone, not a moaning soul left in the burning, burning world
The boy's burning shadow pulled him off the burning ledge
And he realized he wasn't a boy at all
The night was dark and stormy
The nightman was within
I heard a crash and then a splash
My God, did he just fall in?
For those very young folks out there, the "nightman" used to come and empty your toilet b4 the invention and wide spread use of reticulated sewerage schemes.
