rampage in a puce t-shirt


by bofa xesjum



the corpse was gray
professor denby considered it in a brown study
jerry wore a puce t-shirt

the rhubarb was green
jerry’s t-shirt had letters on it that read - i hate you
sergeant redman observed jerry’s t-shirt with visible distaste

jerry had taken his t-shirt to the laundromat only the day before
the purple elephant rampaged through the dry grass
red jokes were in vogue

the flower was white
professor denby’s suit was a curious shade of yellow
which contrasted poorly with his black mood

the rhubarb was green that year
when jerry took his t-shirt to the laundromat
but the rhubarb’s crunchiness was widely questioned

especially by the purveyors of red jokes
albert wore a brown derby
while the purple elephant rampaged through the unfortunate village

counselor jones did not find jerry’s t-shirt at all amusing
and did not care much for red jokes either
sergeant redman was more determined than ever to catch the purple elephant

which was disappearing over the blue horizon
as henry told a bright red joke
but the yellow wall was highly polished

the corpse had a gray pallor
albert took off his brown derby
when jerry went back to the laundromat it was closed
