The start of my series of poems

The Booger Collector

My booger collection

Over the years

You know how it goes

When faced with boredom

I pick my nose

Fascinated with how they looked

I started collecting them

    Never inclined to taste them like little kids do

 

Once I sneezed

    And one big booger escaped my gaze

It landed on my tie

There it dried brown and crusty

When you have a cold

They turn green you know

 

Well I had this girlfriend

T’was ever picking lint and stuff off of me

Prissy you know but

It was a big mistake that day to be picky and such

To scratch at my tie and hear the crunch

In her fingernail my lost booger lodged

You could tell

She was no collector

My goodness

One would have thought the world had ended

The fuss she made

But as I have always said

What’s a little bit of snot between friends?
