THE ONLY THING THERE IS TO FEAR

The only that I must fear is that I do not fear enough,
For no matter how things now appear the future will be rough,
So, I drive to the hills,
With my groceries and pills,
And, my mate, the dog and some stuff.

FISHING FOR TIGER SHARKS IN LAKE MICHIGAN

Out on Lake Michigan I did embark,
To try to catch a tiger shark,
But alas, the waters were way too rough,
And, my fishing dinghy is not so tough,

Now, this story has no real surprises,
My little dinghy, it capsizes,
And, I might have swam to a pier or park,
But, I found the jaws of a tiger shark,

And, you know I didn’t feel any pain,
As the shark chomped down upon my brain,
But, I had one bad sensation before my death, 
I smelled the shark's stinky tuna breath.
