I’ve got the sweats and can’t stop drinking,

There’s sugar exuding from all my pores.

How I wish I had never eaten that

Five pound bag of gummy dinosaurs!

Christmas brings us lots of fun,

Even to scientists, just like me.

Why, I am so into the holidays,

I even decorated my Chemistree!

12/01/2017

Being a scientist is what I adore,

Rearranging atoms without fear!

So how did my boss ever decide,

That I’m an electrical engineer?

Thanksgiving poems are predictable,

Turkey, stuffing and gravy driblets.

Yet I find it quite despicable,

No one sings the praise of giblets.

Lost my rhythm,

Lost my rhyme,

I’ve also lost,

All sense of time!

Frantic music throbs deep into the night,

We’re praying to the gods, below and above.

Life is meaningless except for the dance,

Tonight please, please let me find love…

Sammy and Daddy,

Sleeping on the bed.

Laying so still,

You’d think they were dead.

Yet they’re instantly alert,

At the very slightest sound.

Ain’t gonna get caught

By no sneaky old hound.

The Christmas bells are ringing!

Groovy way to make a living.

Yes, my kitchen’s really swinging,

Making Sammy’s and my Thanksgiving.

Writing reviews of restaurants,

A shrinking supply of bon mots.

How will I describe this tasty dish,

Of divinely presented tater tots?

Sammy walked into the kitchen,

Looked up and told me “Mao.”

Would truly like to help her,

But I really don’t know how!
