My Brainectomy So I’ve taken it out and laid it on the table, A knife and a saw was all that it took. I peer over the table edge at its gelatine like warble, Poke it once to see if it squiggles, Look aghast as it starts to wiggle. I stand up and scream, “Pile of shit I told you not to think!” Massage my head and mumble,"I need a drink." It inches away as I seizure in my fit, With little self repose I certainly can’t deal, “You want out? Get out,” I squeal! I hold the door ajar and stand eyes to roof, It’s better not to bargain when your brains aloof. With one last look my brain hoping for an appeal, I cup my hands “Be gone, get lost, you’re not for real!” I slouch on the couch and begin to congeal. Drooling and numb I click the remote, “My life now bitch, I’m living it up.” Safe at last from its clutches I do as I please, Beer after beer I try to appease. There in the window peeking at me, With a roar and quip I reach for my gun, All shiny and long it’s surely the one, A boom and a crack it plants me on my ass, I rush to the door and search for my brain, Nowhere in site now ain’t that a shame. Asleep in my chair from the drink I adore, It snuck up on me and pinned me on the floor, “You ain’t got no reason, no rhyme to implore,” Once again I’m a slave to the brain that I’ve got, It reads and it writes but I still think with my cock! |
