Hey, I’m puttin’ my stuff on WeWriWa. How cool is that?

Hey, Dr. Crankenfuss here. My last rap post was so awesome, I’m putting a bunch of it on WeWriWa (The Weekend Writing Warriors Website). They’re only giving me 150 words so here goes.
**************************************************
ODE TO SPRING (ME OUTTA HERE!)

Learnin’ my math
And ABC’s
But nuthin much matters
No more to me
Feelin’ kind of blah
No dedication
But I think I know
The explanation.

I look outside
Blue skies, trees green
Sittin’ in class
Seems kinda obscene
This ain‘t no place
For a true freaky dude
Didn’t we outlaw
Involuntary servitude?

Feelin’ all tied up
And listless… yeah, true!
You heard of spring fever?
Well I got spring FLU!
As the Crank, I seek da truth
My questions never end
But now I’m only askin’,
“When is school gonna end?”

Ain’t seven months hard labor
Enough for any young soul?
Shouldn’t they be showin’ us Heaven
‘Stead of keepin’ us here in this hole?
Nature is tellin’ us somethin’
The worms go to the first birdie
Maybe we could fly like eagles
If you’d only stop school early
**************************************************************************************************************
Well, that’s it. 146 words total. Like I said, the limit was 150 words so I had to stop ’bout 2/3 through. But for the whole thing, you can go back to my last post. But the idea is you can comment on my knock-em-dead rap right here — well, in the comment box anyway — or you can go to WeWriWa and check out all the other 8-sentence or 150-word-poetry samples other people posted and see what you find. Pretty cool idea, if you ask me. And you can see how da Crank stacks up ‘gainst those other dudes.

AND THEN I GOT EVEN BIGGER NEWS FOR EVERYBODY. Daniel’s putting out a NEW BOOK next week! Actually it’s my favorite one so far and that means it totally crunk. It’s called LOVE THUG and it’s cool cause it’s short, hilarious, stupid, clever, with big illustrations, and short. Hey, did I mention it’s short? Guys usually like that. Like those Wimpy Kid books that pretend to be like 220 pages but if they were printed regular, they’d be like 80 pages max. Well, LOVE THUG is about that long. And pretty close to that good. So keep checking the OUR BOOKS page to see when it comes out and in the meantime, try out some of the samples of the books Daniel already has out there. I mean STORIES GUARANTEED TO MAKE YOU SICK? And two MOOSE JOKE BOOKS? What’s not to like?

Thanks to WeWriWa for the chance to share and I’ll be back soon.
From Your Dude with the ‘Tude,
