Jeremy the Cow

Jeremy the pink ghost cow

A wonder to behold

He sucks out your insides and makes them into smoothies

And his existence usually goes untold.

That is, until one day

A pair of crazy cousins

Saw the truth for what it is;

Jeremy the ghost cow is real,

And he is a threat to society's bliss.

Jeremy knocks on people's windows

As the clock strikes midnight;

He moos and appears in your worst nightmare,

Gives even the bravest of kids a fright.

He's pink and transparent and scary,

He has a wife and a son and a family tree;

This ghost cow is real, I assure you

Undoubtedly NOT imaginary.

  • Teenhood

    There should be a word

    For ages thirteen through seventeen.

    There should be a word

    Like childhood or adulthood

    That describes

    Being a teenager.

    Adolescence is one, yes

    But it doesn't fit.

  • Schoolwork

    Schoolwork

    Homework

    How exciting.

    I think my teachers are trying to kill me.

    They assign lots of assignments

    Worksheets, sometimes a quiz

    Normally I wouldn't mind

    But I'm not a math whiz.

  • Timeless

    I wanted to stay there forever

    Under that tree with you.

    I wanted to lie there

    Live beneath the sky's blue.

    I wanted to look at the constellations at night

    And name the clouds' shapes in the daytime.
