Lesson Learned
Sometimes you just gotta listen, especially when it comes to aliens.
I met a cute guy in a bar.
We began to make out in my car.
When I felt between us,
his tiny green penis,
I laughed till I puked in a jar.
*
I heard there were aliens in town.
I ignored all the warnings they'd sound.
Fed up with the strife,
I went out for the night,
to have fun and perhaps drink a round.
*
I prob should have listened from the start,
to the folks who said "take this to heart."
Because now I'm drove crazy,
with ten snot-colored babies,
and I don't even have time to fart.

When the Ball-Machine went Haywire
At lunchtime the day it happened, I was sitting sidelong on a bench with my feet up. Another boy and a girl came over so I scrambled up at once, then sat down again with a bump at the far end. I hoped the girl might look at me and say thanks for making room, but no such luck.

Well, You may have laughed at his tools, but it seems that You must've got more than handsy with them, cause You fixed Yourself into a rather precarious situation. Hopefully it brings peace between worlds, and maybe childsupport too. Lowkey, Gerald must be ecstatic to be an Uncle to ten new nieces and nephews, though they might not be nieces and nephews in our binary sense of when it comes to biology.
