Nobody Home

He told me he’d astral traveled
He encourage me to try it too
I told him about the warnings I’d heard
People lost in the astral planes
Evil entities entering their bodies
When they were out of them
Or traveling into demonic realms
He derided my foolishness
Said it was all nonsense
Last time I saw him
His face frozen in horror
And nobody home

5,000 Men Not Good Enough

A 37 year old single woman rejects 5,000 applicants
Submitted to her by 5,000 enamored men
Who succumbed to her foolish list of questions.
To all those 5,000 men lured to take her test,
You’re better off without a woman so insanely picky.
She’d be the same and worse if you were with her.
You’d never be good enough for her inflated ego,
And she’d be quick to point out your imagined faults.
And she’d dump you within a wretched year,
And guaranteed, she’d have more faults than you.

Bob Boyd
