KELLY LOOKS FOR CRACKS


On break from Married with Children,

Kelly takes a walk on the wild side of Hollyweed

Counting the cracks up and down Sunset.

She smells a fly in her ointment

Which throws her off course.

Before long, her mind starts to wobble

And she goes up dry creek without a functioning puddle.

LA County seems to be vanishing right

Before the horns of an enema.

I was doing my best quid pro quo

As the light changed from green to bright yellow

On some side street where strip searches

Become common law spouses without a limo.

A band of tourists boiled over into the Valley

As Kelly took dead aim at a nervous postman

Wandering the rancho neighborhood in the hills,

I had a tattoo moment at the corner of Hear and Now.

It was time to send the relatives back East

An assortment of misleading postcards

That were Edgar Allan Poe types taking

Shots at quoth the Raven Demi Moore

Since nevermore had gone up the wrong alley.
