What’s that thing called?
A certain red-eyed
Bowtie
Red high heel shoes
With a needle going through the foot
Let your feet bleed
As you walk a mile
In your own blood shoes

Here is a story that I have been working on for a while. It's about two orcas who fight and eventually forge the golden trident, down in the deep depths of the sea

My Name is Tank
I’m a cat that's smoking with my tail
Singing the blues
Singing jazz
My name is Tank
I'm just a cat playing the drums
I’m a grown ass cat man
On my phone talking to people
Smoking a cigarette with my tail
And drinking coffee

"Krampus Comes Once More"
I'm a black cat with long claws
Eyes glowing red
Sharp teeth under the bed
And I got spiders in my hair
I live under your bed
Giving your dreams full of fright
This is Halloween

All mothers are independent fighters
Around the world
But not going through it alone
All mothers have the power
All mothers have that spice
Trust, love, honesty, and respect
And to be cherished by their children
In life, you don't have respect
Are you a man, or a mouse?
Love harnesses that knowledge
Around the world
But not going through it alone

The Thirst Always Wins
One night,
I walked through
The undead, holy cemetery
A gateway between two worlds
As something rose out of the trees
I seriously say “why,”
And I chase after it on my horse
A black stallion
And then, the death begins
The thirst always wins

Free the Cat
If I was a cat
And outside getting rained on
What would my shelter be
In a small cage
To keep me warm and safe
Or under a dark, wet gloomy house
Where I would be trapped
Where I would have to claw my way out
What would my choice be
I deserve to be free

Toad gets caught in a thunderstorm
“Ever see a toad get struck by lightning?”
“No, not really,”
He flies away in the wind
Gets killed by a tornado
Comes back as a demon
As a toad yellow-eyed demon

Is it just me,
Or is it a conspiracy
My brother?
Why is the world so round
Instead of a square like Swiss cheese?
Where you can see the planets through the holes
Until a hungry, naughty cat comes
And eats the whole world of Swiss cheese,
Burps, and says “excuse me”
🤭😼

Dads Will Rule for All Eternity, Part 2
You say to yourself
“I’m not who I used to be”
But then you take a step back and rewind
And see that you are who you are
You’re a great king
You’re meant to rule
You’re meant to be loved by others
