Is Truth stranger than Fiction?
Does Stress cause Friction?
Is Diction a Contradiction?
DUH?
Lady in Distress
© - Tom Hyland - 04-05-09
Yes - she was Fuming!
Yes - she was Upset!
Could have chewed Nails -
Yes - I would Bet!
Handyman is A.W.O.L.
Job is Undone -
Daughter Teed-Off -
Asleep is - In-Law Son!
White Knight Arrives -
In Shining Armor -
Says - Hair Looks Nice -
Thought I was a Goner!
Curtain rods Frim-Frammed -
Phone out of Whack -
Eyes Glazed Over -
She was a Wreck!
Bed Screwed Up -
Legs/Feet Missing -
Storage Boxes Out -
Man - she was Hissing!
To the Top of the Step-Stool -
To the Top of the Wall -
Screwin’ in Brackets -
Oh, Please - Don’t Fall!
Place is a Mess -
Her hair a Dishevel -
Was I her Angel?
She looked like the Devil!
“Re-arrange the Roses -
No - not like That!
Down more in the Middle -
Fix it - Tom Kat!”
Do it My Way -
Or hit the Highway!
Hell hath no Fury -
Like this Woman’s Story!
Tears started Flowing -
But - she didn’t Cuss!
Bedazzled and Frazzled -
She made quite a Fuss!
Stormed at with Shot and Shell -
The Knight - not Dismayed -
He carried on Splendidly -
Hoping to get Laid!
Down to the Workshop -
Once - Twice - Thrice -
Sawed Two-by-Fours -
For Rigging - so Nice!
Where is the Flashlight?
I need a Torch -
Where is the Molding?
Is it out on the Porch?
Like “Hot-Buttered-Beans”
We searched High and Low -
Where’s that Friggin’ Molding?
Her Temper did Flow!
Upstairs - Downstairs -
This room - then That -
Aha! In the Closet -
That’s where it’s At!
Hammer - Nails - Screwdriver -
All were Employed -
This Job - that Job -
I tackled - won my Reward!
Bedding - Mattress - Box-Springs -
All were Undone -
Fixed the Friggin’ Feet -
Then - Finally - we Won!
All back Together -
Only took Four Hours!
She - now Pleased - Smiles Sweetly -
Maybe I’ll get Flowers?
Now De-Stressed - now Complacent -
We shared a Bath -
Then, Abed for some Fun -
Story Done - Now - Can Laugh!

The Wholly Book of Genesis
by Jay Dubya
The Wholly Book of Genesis is a humorous satire on the first book of the Old Testament where the Story of Creation, the building of Noah's Ark, Sodom and Gomorrah and the families of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are thoroughly spoofed and broadsided.
