Beached whale...?

Poem Artwork

I don’t know for sure,

Is this a beached whale on the shore,

Or is it a sumo wrestler out for a tan,

Other than not having a top, I can’t even tell if it’s a man…

 

That face looks a bit blue,

Is it dead, tell me, will you,

Maybe it’s being used to keep the ocean at bay,

Oh what the hell, I can’t tell either way…

Oh my! Poor soul....whenever I see a person morbidly obese all I can think about is emotional problems....and I wonder what it is that makes them dislike themselves so much they'd let this happen....cute poem.....

This is an obvious example of ninja beach gas syndrome. He's actually anorexic but his corn dog lunch is about to off gas. You are fortunate to have escaped. Patrick

You obviously haven't seen the movie trailer yet for 'Alien - Seven.' It takes place on the beach in Sea Isle City, where thousands of tiny aliens, the size of little sand fleas, burst out of that guy's stomach and quickly hitch rides back to the homes of all the beach visitors, and then quickly burrow into their ear canals - where they now lay thousands of eggs of their own!

And you thought the beach was safe...
