    A MATTER OF TASTE

    Is beauty the moon o'er a castle with moat,

    Or a naked blond on an old raccoon coat?

    Or is it a star shining down on the green,

    Or a '68 Mustang with high test gasoline?

    Beauty is a matter of taste, and you see

    None of these things really do it for me.

    No, I'd rather stay home and drink Genessee

    With a Rams and Colts game on hi-def TV.

    Beauty twinkles overhead.

    the raccoon constellation.

    the heavens it's bed.

    Orion stretches, across the sky,

    his mighty belt

    of hope for many 'tis a sign.

    No more can we see the heavens

    blotted out my the orange dim

    of the gasoline stars

    and the electric hymn.

    Here's a bad one but one nonetheless. You never mentioned that it had to have any literary value, hehe.

    Where’d you acquire such beauty?

    Asked the night to the prideful star.

    Tonight's sleep seemed to be fleeting

    While dreaming you up from afar.

    Your beauty seems to creep on me

    Much as a sneaky raccoon

    Hiding behind the mask

    Of the opalescent moon.

    Show yourself to me each day

    Without you I simply can’t run.

    Like a car without gasoline

    Or a morning devoid of caffeine.

    If I lack your presence my power’s undone

    I’d lack the strength to tackle the sun.

    Gasoline stars form in the center of your eyes

    With one look, it's no surprise

    The beauty they hold comes to soon.

    Oh look! Its that damn racoon, actin' a bahfooon.
