Lobsters Can't Fly,
by Matthew Zangenbut I helped you try.
Your shell is flayed and shattered,
oozing delicious innards in a
goopy mess on the sidewalk.
Next time I will boil you. 02/02/2006 Author's Note: I'm going to hell.

| Posted by Amanda J Cobb on 11/19/06 at 04:30 AM One has to wonder how the lobster got up high enough to fly in the first place....tricky buggers.
For some completely illogical reason, the tone of this reminds me of Joe Chiles' 'I Am Going to Punish Your Fish'. Could be the last line, the "you just wait til next time" attitude. Hmm.
Anyway, this, absurdly, made me laugh a bit. So I'm probably going to hell, too. Cheers. |
