Joe, who’d a thought some whacked toiletry
would beget some mad good Váradi poetry?!

Vincent, Tommy smelling’ like
Cologne that’s not official
Bruhs out in Tom’s hooptie
Seeking love that’s superficial

Thirsty Vinnie grillin’ a
Newcomer’s rear, a lit ass
Stacy’s middle finger says
“Not yooz guys — I’ll take a pass!”

Now Tommy, he be beastin’
“She thinks we’re bridge and tunnel”
Stacy’d peeped a Ukraine bro
Prospect to fill her funnel

See brolic Sergei, he’s no herb
Been gully since third grade
Stacy says, “Behind bodega’s
Where your wavy ass gets laid!”

Fuhgedaboudit!
