Jason





Jason's a really good friend.

He only has one eye.

A few times I have asked him

but he tells nobody why.



Often I go over though,

to play, sometimes to eat.

Their house is always spotless.

Jason's mom keeps it really neat.



She only has one arm

and Jason's dad has just one ear.

You really have to yell for him

and make it really clear.



I used to like his sister,

thought she was pretty, her name's Sherry

but Jason told me one day

she was dating Jason's brother Larry.



Anyway, Sherry she gets through life

with having just one hand.

She told me once what happened

but I did not understand.



See they speak in a strange English,

really fast with bizarre tones.

One time playing in their backyard

I came across some bones.



Sometimes they peel their skin

and then they look like freaky lizards.

But what really made me flip one night

was when they were eating something's gizzards!



But I don't know. They seem okay.

And like I said he's a good friend.

Besides I'm smart enough to know

that all the weird stuff's just pretend.



But my parents think they're odd.

Anyway, I guess I'm gonna go.

Jason wants to show me something

in their basement with this strange glow.
