Nonsense to Help Me Sleep
In a land of 93 people
lived a preacher and a nun
In a church without a steeple
they professed to 91
The sermon was quite boring
so seven found the door
They left amidst the snoring
leaving only 84
The nun looked to the altar
and the scary hanging Jew
Twice 11 faltered
and that left 62
But the preacher kept on talking
and he didn't skip a line
Then 13 more were walking
leaving only 49
The nun began to worry
as she saw the empty pews
They were leaving in a hurry
by sixes, fours, and twos
A dozen minutes later
they were in the church alone
The ****** masterbater
and his faithful penguin drone
"So what are we supposed to do?"
the preacher asked the nun
They started out with 92
(or was it 91?)
To be honest it was 93
including priest and nun
You'd think that I would know this
as I wrote it in line 1
But the time is getting very late
perhaps I now can sleep
These lines are not so very great
and not so very deep
But they served my shallow purpose
as my eyes begin to close
And since nothing rhymes with purpose
I believe it's time to go
