A Dino Sore Subject

I don’t know when or how

But humanity will go;

Extinction is inevitable

But what I want to know

Is if those who come after us

Will maintain our legacy

By making chicken nuggies

That are shaped like you and me.

“No”, Said Chad The Juror

So if you’re crazy

And you do some crazy crimes

You’re just innocent?

The Escape Artist

Everyone deserves a friend

Who’ll both refill your cup

And help you make the party end

When those acquaintances won’t shut up,

Who’s nestled in that happy place

Between indirect and rude

And has a smile on their face

When they lie: “I don’t mean to intrude.”

The Missing Link

Ten thousand people gather

Outside a thousand-person town

To see a stranger live his dream

When his band has come around.

He’ll play a dozen ditties

And we’ll sing along by heart

Because a dumb thing he wrote down

Appeared to us as art.

He’ll sell out seven stadiums

All seven days a week

And people clap and scream and cry

All just to hear him speak.

If this man brings such joy to many

Then imagine what you’d do

If you were better looking

And rich and super talented too!

Bump. Set. Spike! Oops…

Everything is fun

‘Til the ball goes in the stands

And a nose dissolves…

Medical Priorities

At what point do we realize,

While curing cancer would be great,

There’s another rampant problem

That a lot of people hate

And if we pooled our resources

And people who are clever

I bet in just a couple years

The hiccups would be gone forever.

Ode To My Brain After The First Day Of School

Repeat after me:

Just because the door says push

Doesn’t mean don’t pull.

Forged From A Different Mold

My head cannot comprehend sports

And my torso is lacking in muscle.

My legs do not look good in shorts

And my heart has a great dearth of hustle.

My hands and my eyes don’t play nicely

But one thing that I think is neat

Is that I have two assets precisely:

I have, not one, but two athlete’s feet!

The Superhero Genre

Look! It’s a bad guy!

Let’s get punched a lot and then

Save the day again!

Unfortunately It Requires Planning And Discipline, And Doesn’t Taste Like Pumpkin Spice

Imagine if there were a coffee

That energized you twice as well

And was also completely free…

Sounds like an easy sell!

I have such a solution for you

If my secret you can keep:

My secret coffee replacement brew

Is called “eight hours of sleep”.
