The Knuckle sandwich

I went to see a doctor after eating 

Too many calzones.

The doctor told me to feast on a knuckle sandwich 

Pig, ox or horse are all worthy to suckle


Back home,  my wife was in a pickle

She couldn't find her favorite belt with a buckle

And I saw her chewing her knuckle!

"Margaret!" I cried

"Eat a sandwich" I insisted clear-eyed 

"Fuck you and your confort food" she replied

"I've been teething for 40 years and now I'm chewing

On this job offer 'cause you lost your job."

I knew I also had a bone to chew about our

Defaulted loan


Instead I decided to go outdoors and

Throw some stones

At Ruffy, our pooch, 

Known rather to hold dear 

Slurpy chewing of all things bones.














Chewy things
