“Bonkers, it’s absolutely bonkers I say.”
“Everything is in turmoil?”
“Double turmoil, with a cherry on top and a fireball whiskey chaser!”
“Let’s calm down for a moment. What happened?”
“All I can say is it involves a fish, a poleaxe, and two large bottles of ammonia.”
“Maybe it’s best if I don’t know. I don’t want to go to jail!”
Double her melody, but a third higher they said
Under normal circumstances that would have been a cakewalk
Except she found out the person she was singing with was Mariah Carey
That meant either she needed to find another octave in range or have a car hit her so she could get out of it
To put her mind through the mental pressure cooker
Researching what her next “next” was going to be
All she wanted to do was to level up now
It was her passion, but she realized it was unrealistic
Now she needed to double down on the work. It will all pay off later.
Being able to double down on his wager
Enabled him to make a possible life-changing venture
The chances of this working out might be small, but this was his time
How much would you pay for this?
You might think it would be hundreds of dollars
Perhaps even thousands
Everything is just $19.95 with a separate processing and handling fee
Make those phones ring now and we will double your order
And just pay a separate shipping fee
Credit cards and money orders are okay
However, just give us a direct line into your bank account
Now if you do that, we will pay the tax
It will change your life in ways you can’t imagine
Everyone call now. Our operators are standing by

Can’t you take the anxiety away
And leave me feeling serene
Looking at the bottle of bourbon, waiting for its response
Meanwhile, since it didn’t answer, I decide to go double or nothing.

Double the trouble was not what Marcus wanted
Usually, he tried to avoid fighting when time traveling
As it didn’t really prove anything in his world
Looking at the two thugs with their swords drawn he knew he didn’t have a choice
Watching his foes split apart, he hesitated drawing his weapons
If he played his hand too quickly he would lose his only surprise
Everything would come down to timing
Lazily he took a small step back
Daring his attackers to press their perceived advantage
It must have been too good a temptation
Now they charged him. He pulled out twin pistols from where they were hidden
Going to be tough to explain the bodies, but better them than him

Silly little things always gave him fits
Telling time on an analog clock
Untying double knotted shoes
Making really thin crepes
People, on the other hand, he could read like books
Everybody was a simple picture book to him
Debbie on the other hand…
