A Posthumous Collaboration by Dr. Seuss and Allen Waters

After I read the poem below aloud, listeners/fucktards sometimes ask me, "Allen, does this follow the Green Eggs and Ham format to a T? Or did you change some formatting around to make it work?" The embalming fluid practically spews from Geisel's ears in frustration, but I manage to calm him.

I really like cold beer in cans / I really like them, slammed-I-am"Yes, douchebag," I calmly respond, "It does follow the original to a T. It also follows it to a U, and then to a V, and all the way down W, X, Y, and Z. However, I was admittedly drunk when I wrote this, and too hungover to do a proper check, so if you do scour through and find anything out of sync with the Seuss classic…then, well, you have way too fucking much time on your hands. Get a hobby."

(The whole "get a job" thing seems sort of tasteless in this economic environment. Also, my audience is usually 2nd and 3rd graders, who shouldn't be stitching together clothes for at least a few more years).

So, without further adieu, I give you myself and Theodor Seuss Geisel's latest work of genius…
