There once was a face
in an unusual place,
sandwiched between bleachers and a white flimsy gate.
There was no one around
no voices or sounds,
he can't do anything but patiently wait.
His name is Billy Bob Schmit
filled with anger and no wit,
waiting for a human to eat as a meal.
Billy spots a human
a short stubby cuban,
walking his way dressed in brightly colored teal.
The hungry face gets ready
keeping his mouth open and steady,
about to gobble up this hopeless little man.
The face wasn't concerned 
that the cuban has already learned,
about Billy and his horrific plan.
With a faithful leap
the puddle started to weep,
he's failed to swallow the cuban.
It's what he did best
he was better than the rest,
at swallowing any sized human.
The face watched the man grin
as he walked away from his win,
at the encounter with Billy Bob Schmit.
The puddle's face cocked
his expression surprised and shocked,
he was beaten with knowledge and wit.
No family for comfort
only hunger and slumber,
Billy's never had happy memories to think about.
Alone by himself
no job nor wealth,
all he could do was eat people and pout.

Name: Billy Bob Schmit

  4. I love it! I think that this is probably the cleverest story I read! "Billy spots a human
    a short stubby cuban," That had me laughing for a good three minutes!
