brain cookies
Prithee tell--what makes a cookie
sumptuous as the mildewed air,
and spongy as a forgotten mattress
used by lovers now long past
their bed-by date
(for all but a daring few)
Know it well? A crazed confection,
dusted lightly with crumbled cranium;
a zombie treat, they come for BRAIINZZZZ
and stay for the obvious pains
taken in the elegant preparation--
down to the very mode of serving:
in severed torso
(half-shell if you will)
Now the hard sell: you've caught us
in flagrante delecto--these cadaverous cookies
elevate themselves above the pale
rotting, misbegotten and forgotten dead;
of course, any chef worth their trade samples
their goods, so you must pick your fate:
sample of your own free will or
we'll hook you some other way
(perhaps some zombie pate?)

But now that you mention it, a remix wouldn't be a bad idea... "Ode to thy flatulence, Oh Delectable Shit-Crumpet!"
Not as genius as darkies embrowning, but that hobbled dolt seems to have lost the passion... We're going through withdrawals.
What is the ranker without limericks on aids, shit crusted crustaceans, the art of murder, the untying of the gordion knot, remix parodies, and the battle between Christian Angels and Egyptian Gods?
I'll pop it out in a few days-- the blade bleeds best when the poetic rapture possesses me.
"Ode to thy flatulence, Oh Delectable Shit-Crumpet!"
Coming soon to the Ranker!
