Thing

THING

Scruffy, hairy, smelly Thing.

With big white fangs, you looked so mean.

From the pound, your record clean.

Said you wouldn't hurt anything.

Is that a human arm you're eating?

His Mustache

HIS MUSTACHE
His mustache is why people like him.

His mustache is what gives him strength.

His mustache is why he knows many things.

In his mustache, he has faith.

But one day his mustache fell off.

And in a depression he did fall.

For his mustache was what defined him.

With it, he thought he had it all.

His friends came to visit,

But he did shut them out.

"They only liked me for my mustache, " he said.

He was full of doubt.

Then one night he had a dream.

An angel appeared and spoke by his bed,

"It's not the mustache that makes a man,

It's the man inside instead."

And so he woke the very next day

and took a walk outside.

His friends were happy to see him.

"We miss you and love you!" They cried.

A valuable lesson, he did learn.

He swears by it to this day.

It never really was his mustache,

that gave him an edge in any way.

Apple Of My Eye

APPLE OF MY EYE

I have a pet worm named Stanley.

I didn't find him, he found me.

You see,

one day I was walking by,

he tried to burrow through an apple,

but really it was my eye.

Owl Tattoo

OWL TATTOO

Of all the tattoos

there are many for you to choose.

You can get a phoenix surrounded by fire,

or, around your arm, a barbed wire.

A tattoo on your back,

eight-ball colored in black!

a midnight cat,

a green top hat,

a welcome mat

on your right lat.

Big
Small

you can get it all!

colors like leaves in the fall

but be careful they turn dull

But no.

There's only one that you want

for you to flaunt.

You want this owl tattoo.

Chompy the Monstey

CHOMPY THE MONSTEY

He's got giant sharp teeth

that are brighter than day.

If you pass him on the streets,

 don't be afraid 

His fur is soft

and he gives big hugs.

He's gentle and soothing

like hot chocolate in a mug.

Sorry I've been away for so long. I wish I had a better excuse other than laziness, but it's pretty much just that. Here's a monster I did out of gouache and colored pencil.  Enjoy!
