Balladeer, the psychiatrist, visited a ‘Bama institution,
Where he found Toerag, a patient, wallowing in confusion.
So ‘Deer asked Toe to describe the nature of his lowly state,
And the following explanation is what I’m here now to relate.

“It started when I got married.  I should have seen it coming,
I married an older woman with a grown daughter. (My stepdaughter was quite stunning.)
My daddy came to visit us, and soon became my stepdaughter’s lover.
When they got married my stepdaughter became my new stepmother.

Soon after that we had a baby girl, a half-sister in my step-daughter’s life,
But she’s my daddy’s sister-in-law, because my step-daughter’s my daddy’s wife.
Since my new daughter is my stepmother’s half-sister, she is my new aunt, too.
While she is still my daughter, I am also her nephew.

Since my wife is my step-mother’s mother, I am her step-grandson too,
But since I'm married to my grandmother, I’ve become a grandfather without a clue.
I can’t keep it all sorted out, who is related to who, and how, and why,
I’m disturbed being my own grandfather, and calling my grandmother my wife.”

“But things went bad in a hurry,” Toe continued with his head in a whirl,
“My Daddy sent me an announcement.  They had twins, a boy and a girl!”
Deer had a strange look in his eye, sort of far off and in seclusion.
“Move over, Toe,” was all ‘Deer said.  Now they’re both in that institution.

Toe shoulda kept living in sin with his old girlfriend, Sally Sheep.
He coulda saved himself and his buddy ‘Deer a lot of mental grief.

I always knew you were twisted. *G* But... you managed to tie the rest of us in knots, too, trying to follow that gnarly family tree of tangled branches! LOL

It's good to see you around again, sailor... hope your shore leave lasts a while! *S*

LongJohn's just jealous
His girlfriend Sally sheep
Went to live with Balladeer
Cuz he could her interest keep

LongJohn has to do her
three times a night ya see
Just to give six inches
For her love to keep

Now he's sad and lonely
His ego's gone to hell
But Balladeer can keep her happy
Cuz the batteries work so well

Could you chart that in a family tree please? It would be twisted, right?

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

Larry -

If you want a picture of Toe's family tree,
Here is what you do.
Start with a point in the primordial ooze,
And stop the line there, too.

For evolution is the great divider,
It winnows out the chaff.
But in Toe's case it made an exception,
So the rest of us could laugh.

Hey, Toe - stay on topic - I nailed ya on your family tree - stay out of the other-species stuff, ya smurf.  lol

LJA, I literally busted a gasket reading this. I'm sure you could hear my loud guffaw all the way down to the Carolinas!

You sure can beat Kitty What's Her name who writes all those biographies! ~ Mind you, the one you just scribed was far more entertaining ~ and accurate! lol

So good to have you back on board, sailor!

You just added some fluff to my feathers!

Loves 'n Laughs,
Linda

Good to see you again sailor, but it's not good for me to read this beautiful stuff just before bedtime, giggle, giggle.
