Stupid Kid
Posted: January 3rd, 2019, 6:21 pm
His ego was so inflated,
he had to carry it around in one of those large
dark green plastic garbage bags.
Sometimes he exhaled enough
hot air to make it take off.
Two thousand feet high.
Oh me oh my.
People would warn him of
global warming and encourage him
to use biodegradable paper instead.
But he laughed and said,
"No! I'll never dispose of it.
It's bigger than my head."
One day I watched his skull explode.
It was a sight to behold.
That's a lousy rhyme but it will do.
Hope none of it got on you.
Itty bitty brain bits in the bushes
and yard. Trying to clean it up was hard.
We had to call the Self-Importance Police.
They brought in their sniffysniff dogs.
It was a bow-wow banquet.
Mangy mutts were hogs.
Ate it all.
Poor non-recyclable Leaf Bag Ego Boy.
Warning to moms about inappropriate toys.
Next day the headlines read,
"Stupid kid puts plastic bag on his head."
