Short Stories: Jake-I-Am

Jake-I-Am

Oh not again Jake-I-am I'm watching you,

I won't eat any green eggs and spam!

But why won't you try it? You'll like it you see,

just try some of this spam! Try it for me

I will not eat that, Jake-I-am!

I will not eat it on a plane I will not eat it on a train!

I will not eat it at the park, I will not eat it in the dark!

But in the dark it is the best, you can be wearing your spam vest!

I will put it, you will see, in your tasty spaghetti!

Please please no , Jake-I-am I will not eat that horrid spam.

It will make me choke , and make me gag

I will have to hide in my luggage bag!

But your luggage bag will be full, with the spam you will have to pull

Just you put it down your throat, you can eat it in a moat.

but Jake-I-am, I can not eat your horrid spam!

not in a moat or on a boat,

the ingredients will swell my throat.

for those horrid green eggs to go with the spam

will explode my head with a BAM!!

because under cover I am the one who...

you know as the only Andrew!

(Andrew is allergic to eggs)

Thanks to Dr. Suess' book Green Eggs and Ham for the idea!
