“quadruple axel”
i once knew a guy
named sam boney
who, for obvious reasons,
had no time for ice skating.
one night,
on his way home
from wang’s pizzeria
and shoe shine,
sam was abducted by aliens
who looked strikingly similar
to 80s era miles davis.
amusingly enough,
sam was a jew’s harp enthusiast
and always wore one on a string
around his neck
for just such occasions.
to hear him tell it,
it was all out war,
but according to the nasa footage,
sam’s a damn liar.
