ol’ fake.

Trust him? A mistake.

Think it’s time to make.

A pointy wooden stake.

Hope he steps on a rake.

And spills his milkshake.

And gets an overcooked steak.

He’s one I’d like to forsake.

I’d spend every day walking around with a big grin on my face and whistling merry tunes if not for my cousin named Blake. (Blake! Blake!)

Yeah, I’d be insufferable about my love for the world around me and my appreciation for all of the beauty in nature, but it’s all messed up because of my cousin named Blake. (Blake! Blake!)

I don’t like you, Blake.

Really don’t like you, Blake.

You’re quite unlikable, Blake.

I’m just no fan of Blake.

There are still other words that rhyme with Blake.

Like bake and Jake and slake and flake.

And spake and partake and remake and opaque.

But I think I’m done rhyming with Blake.

Ladies and gentlemen, good night!

The End
