I Wandered Lonely as a Clod I wandered lonely as a clod, Just picking up old rags and bottles, When onward on my way I plod, I saw a host of axolotls; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, A sight to make a man’s blood freeze.
Some had handles, some were plain; They came in blue, red pink, and green. A few were orange in the main; The damnedest sight I’ve ever seen. The females gave a sprightly glance; The male ones all wore knee-length pants.
Now oft, when on the couch I lie, The doctor asks me what I see. They flash upon my inward eye And make me laugh in fiendish glee. I find my solace then in bottles, And I forget them axolotls.

I Wandered Lonely as a Clod
ReplyDeleteI wandered lonely as a clod,
Just picking up old rags and bottles,
When onward on my way I plod,
I saw a host of axolotls;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
A sight to make a man’s blood freeze.
Some had handles, some were plain;
They came in blue, red pink, and green.
A few were orange in the main;
The damnedest sight I’ve ever seen.
The females gave a sprightly glance;
The male ones all wore knee-length pants.
Now oft, when on the couch I lie,
The doctor asks me what I see.
They flash upon my inward eye
And make me laugh in fiendish glee.
I find my solace then in bottles,
And I forget them axolotls.

Funny, it's when I take solace in bottles,
ReplyDeleteThat I see hordes of axolotls.
Nitwits, clods, bottles, and axolotls. It takes @Stilton, @3M, and Mad magazine to put them all together. Bravo!
ReplyDeleteThat medical text explains the new bedside manner during my recent physical
ReplyDelete@M. Mitchell Marmel - I'm going to have to plug those lyrics into the AI music generator. For real.
ReplyDelete@TrickyRicky- How many axolotls does it take to make a horde?
@JustaJeepGuy- It's a good mix, isn't it?
@DougM- My recent physicals mostly amount to my doctor showing a bit of surprise and asking "still with us?"
@Stilton- Depends on how many bottles it takes to find solace......
