Colonel wackadaddy
Kenneth Lifshitz

Someone Killed Colonel Wackadaddy
Quick! Play some baseball
but not an the hall,
go downstairs.
Seriously,deliriously,nervously
I choked on a
grapefruit
while watching T.V.

Big man'-He got him,
right in the gut
(that means belly!)
Colonel Wackadaddy and
a legion of talking
toothpaste tubes
Scurrilously took my pants
off

See!

- Please give the toothpick chewer
a good burial,
and a good kick in the
casket for me!
He deserves it.
