Wow I have not put anything up here all month. I have been super busy–with what I’m not quite sure. I still write a ton for Yahoo Voices and in the last month or so they have been paying pretty decently for me to say things like “Hey, this person was on this TV show, betchya didn’t know that!” The limited time I have had to write has been spent trying to make money and since WordPress offers me nothing except for limited emotional satisfaction my focus has been elsewhere.
There is actually some real effort in this blog post. These are a few obituaries I have written based on different nursery rhymes.
Little Miss Muffet
Little Miss Muffet
Decided to snuff it,
Getting out of her debt she saw no way.
She lit herself on fire with a lighter,
And could not be saved by a firefighter,
The funeral is scheduled for Monday.
Jack Be Nimble
Jack was no longer nimble,
Jack was no longer quick,
Jack’s life was over
When he was diagnosed with ALS and became very sick.
Little Bo Peep
Little Bo Peep passed away in her sleep
Family contacts, nobody knows where to find them.
Leave the body alone, they’ll eventually come home
She had a lot of money in her savings account.
Humpty Dumpty
Humpty Dumpty got a phone call
Humpty Dumpty was told he had cancer on his ball.
All the king’s horses and all the king’s men
Will be attending Mr. Dumpty’s funeral next weekend.
Jack and Jill
Jack and Jill, the State Prison will kill
For drowning their child in water.
Jack was put down, with a blunt hit to his crown
And Jill was killed soon after.
