Her skin is white cloth, and she's all sewn apart and she has many colored pins sticking out of her heart. She has many different zombies

 who are deeply in her trance. She even has a zombie

who was originally from France.

But she knows she has a curse on her, a curse she cannot win. For if someone getstoo close to her,

<span style="color: #bc972f; display: block; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; text-align: center;">The story that is told <span style="color: #bc972f; display: block; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; text-align: center;">By a severely flattened toad, <span style="color: #bc972f; display: block; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; text-align: center;">Is of evidential failure <span style="color: #bc972f; display: block; font-family: impact,charcoal,sans-serif; text-align: center;">In attempts to cross the road.

<span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**Thou dost creep within the night;** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**Damp ground and air to aid thy flight.** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**The darkness keepeth thee from sight** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**While on my lettuce thou dost bite** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**And drape with slime.** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**But thou hast crept too stealthily;** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**And was not this the death of thee?** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**For though it was too dark to see,** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**A noise could have prevented me** <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**From crushing thee last night**

** Oh dear... ** **The ending of the floor** **Has caught me unawares.** **This must be the reason** **Why** **I'm falling down the stairs**

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** Worms ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** Worms are skinny, ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** Worms are fat, ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** They live in the ground, ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** They live in the cat. ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** Some can swim; ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** None can fly. ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** Chop them in half ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** And they multiply. ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** They have no legs, ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** They cannot frown, ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** They don't have necks, ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** And they can't sit down. ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** To sum up their use ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** In a few choice words: ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** They aerate the soil ** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif;">** And feed the birds. **

I eat my peas with honey = = I've done it all my life;

It makes them taste quite funny,

But it keeps them on the knife.

**Turtle** Last night I saw a turtle; It looked like a grenade. I picked it up and threw it. Though no explosion was made. = = Anonymous = = = =

__** A blue planet **__ Is that a blue planet that I see, Or is it just a blue buzzing bee, It is moving, it won't stop, Will it come to the Earth and pop?

Mummy, mummy it is coming, If it heads for town it will send people running, Into the city the news will spread, About a blue planet hitting my head, Closer, closer, here it comes, I will brace myself and shout as loud as drums, I can see it right now in-front of me, For it is a fuzzy blue buzzing bee.
