Walk A Mile In My Shoes?
For those about to judge me
If you ever walk a mile in my shoes,
just go ahead and keep them.

Thoughts While Walking
If I Had A Bus
If I had a bus, I would fill it with happy people and drive to interesting destinations.
And stop at diners for lunch.
And listen to engaging life stories from my fellow travelers as we ate lunch.
That is what I would do if I had a bus.
50-Word Story
Playing Star Again
Jimmy spent most of his youth in his room practicing the saxophone.
One day a famous singer stopped in Littletown and saw Jimmy playing with a local band. He offered Jimmy a job.
Jimmy was thrilled but eventually grew tired of the road. He longed for Littletown. To be home.
Sometimes the dream is better than the reality. Enjoy the moment.
Silly Poetry
My Spy Aliases
Retired and up for sale
A spy must have an alias
a lot, to be exact
it is the best way spies have found
to keep their lives intact
But my time as a spy is done
I’m quitting, lest I fail
since I no longer need them now
my names are up for sale
A favorite name of mine is this
its cover never blown
I present to you Professor
Podagra Puddingstone
Perhaps you seek another name
much easier to wear
one not so academic
like Speedboat Sillyhair
Or a little touch of military
for that which you must do
I have just the name you want
Captain Chachalaca Chew
Maybe it’s a common name
a working man who’s smelly
the name of a truck driver
like Tanktop Wifflebelly
What about some royalty
this next one is a charmer
who would not respect the name
Count Clogdance Cookiefarmer
Perhaps a lesser title
yet acceptable, of course
one that’s sure to do the trick
Sir Soggycat Sockforce
If the entertainment field
is the mission that you pull
I have accordion player
DJ Tumblegoat Treebull
When the need for strength arises
then you really are in luck
this name has massive power
Menudo Monstertruck
Put on your best spy tux
prepare yourself to tango
this name will surely do the trick
Duke Donutgrade Dialmango
If you wish to buy a name
to help you with your ruse
my price is within reason
I’ll even help you choose
You simply need to find me
it’s easy if you try
I know you have the skills
Because you are a spy
All names are guaranteed
even across the pond
trust me when I tell you—
my word is my Bond
Happy Monday.

You just like making up people’s names, don’t you, Mark? 😁
