GREEDY DR. BUNGLE’S JUNGLE TSETSE FLY BUTT BITE EPIPHANY!
I was bitten in the butt
By a testy tsetse fly,
While in a jungle hut,
I just knew I would die!
I wandered in the jungle
In a stupor and a daze,
I found a Doctor Bungle,
He gave me a quick gaze,
Dr. Bungle quickly said,
“A tsetse fly bit your ass?
Well, you’ll soon be dead,”
“Give me $500 … make it fast!”
But then, a tsetse fly bit the Doc’s butt, suddenly!
And greedy Doctor Bungle had an epiphany,
“Give the money to the fly,” he said, “Don’t you see?”
“He’s a better blood sucker than I’ll ever be!”
Love the great rhymes and humor of this. Such poem would be ideal for an open mic. Ever tried that?

Yea, it really is! You should try it. I am just a very humble amateur poet, because the moment someone starts to write a poem that person is already a very little poet, but already one. I have not met many poets on WP with such great sense of humor as you, and I like this difference. Your poetry sometimes seems to have a similar irony to that of Lewis Carroll’s poems in Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and in Through the Looking-Glass.

Thank you so much! You are so kind! I think if Dr. Seuss and Lewis Carroll had had a baby, maybe it would have had a similar sense of humor to mine! 🙂
