My Mug By Stephen Jarrell Williams


I like my mug with plenty of pollutants

A squirt of lava from Mount St. Helens

A tablespoon from Peter's morning after



Because coffee and Coke are now illegal

The one world government's latest decree

Led by someone called the Anti-Bottle



Shorelines of sea and rivers burning

From all the dumping of alcoholic beverages

Lit by the pyromaniacs with firecracker fingers



No steaks or burgers allowed worldwide

All cattle exterminated

For we the common people are now the cattle



And even if you like milk you can't drink it

All cow utters have been amputated

And corks have been crammed up their rears



Yes I like my mug with plenty of pollutants

The way this world is going

We're all heading for a mouth full of gargling.
