Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

At the roadside diner he complained of angina
And blamed the chicken, imported from China
Then the doctor appeared, with his hat and his beard
And sharpened his scalpel (just as he feared)

  2. The doctor's first name was Jack.
    Who spoke of coming heart attack.
    For your sake I'll do what I can.
    While drinking Saki from Japan.

  3. Ah so, chicken from china
    speak with forked tongue
    chopsticks protrude from
    poor diner's lung...
    beware a chicken carrying
    pool cue case
    his eye is cleverly
    measuring your face
    he blames your kind
    for chickencide
    the crime is called
    Kentucky Fried

  4. As for eating dead birds at a roadside diner,
    I'd say dining out could surely be finer,
    You are what you eat, as we've all heard them say,
    Do I want feathers and beak? NO WAY!

  5. Chinese chicken
    May be finger lickin'
    But, please, enjoy in moderation
    To avoid an operation.

  7. Doctor opened him up
    Caught the blood in a cup
    Found the cause of disaster
    And got out a plaster.

    There was quite a to do
    When they found Swine Flu
    Had ravaged this fella
    Who had turned shades of yella!

  10. If you eat too much chicken, you see
    You'll grow feathers pretty as can be
    A person with feathers won't look quite right
    And that person will probably die in a fight

    So, no need to worry about the heart attack.
