Announcement - Lung Love Rhyme Contest Winners

Congrats to the winners!




I would first like to thank all who participated.
Reading your rhymes made me feel elated.
It was hard for me to pick a top three
but I've come to a decision, finally!


1st Place - Lolamouse

You started off thinking it cool
But ended up looking the fool
Your lungs have turned black
Your clothes reek; you hack
Should have listened to those films at school!


2nd Place - Brian Miller

speaking through your neck
makes you sound metallic
i say this cause i love you
not to be a smart alec
& would rather you be in my life
a whole lot longer


3rd Place - Bryan White

I've been done with the smokes for well over a year.
The cravings and withdraw were rather severe,
but with pains in the chest and shortness of breath,
each smoke that you smoke leads you closer to death.
And now that they've gone over $5 a pack,
I doubt that I'll ever get the urge to go back.
If there's one thing I care about more than my health,
it's the cash in my wallet and my delusions of wealth.
They say that I'm cheap, but at least I'm smoke free.
Now if I could just lose the weight,
I'd be as fine as could be!


I will contact you soon about your prizes! Congratulations!
You three are this year's lung love rhyming sensations!!

Bacteria Face


image by digitalart via freedigitalphotos.net

This week the White House responded to our petition
where we demanded public recognition
of any knowledge of life other life forms,
space land happenings beyond the norm,
but, not surprisingly, they said they know nothing.
Most of us don't believe they haven't seen a thing.

We keep discovering new planets and stars
and soon we're shipping some germs to Mars.
Is it really possible we haven't seen
any aliens anywhere, be they not green?
Are they trying to create little martian men
by flinging bits of ourselves into space now and then?

It wasn't long after the White House announcement
that I heard about where the germs will be sent.
I wonder if they planned it all in one meeting?
Do they ever indulge wacky thoughts that are fleeting?
"Hey guys.  After we tell the people there's no life in outer space,
want to launch some bacteria and see if it turns into a face?"
