A zombie apocalypse would be bad,

But if it was just a month or two

We’d probably see society improve

For the ones who made it through.

Some Things Just Need To Stop

They say it would be terrible

To die in a fiery crash,

Your body immolated

And reduced to naught but ash.

Drowning might be worse to some

And freezing to another.

Regardless of your preference

For one death or another

We can agree that dying

Isn’t the most unlucky break;

That honor goes to living

To see another Disney live-action remake.

Badduh Hairo, Desu Ne?

They made the very first anime

Back in 1963.

Since then it’s been a mainstay

Of international TV.

They have animes about everything

From kitties to killers, but still

No one’s made one with Japanese barbers

And I’m starting to think no one will…

Holy Cow

People will say “Jesus Christ”

“God Damn” and “Heaven Forbid.”

Meanwhile, there’s just some bull out there

Who’s wondering what he did…

Survival Tips

Living in the Arctic

Isn’t easy, so I’m told;

It’s devoid of food and shelter

And interminably cold.

But worse than frigid weather

Or starvation you should know

Is that even on the warmest days

The wi-fi’s always slow.

Haik

I’ve worked really hard

To limit my wordiness.

Modern Mathematical Concepts

We used to joke about word problems

Like “If Joe has 16 melons

“And he puts them in a room with radius pi

“What demographic becomes felons?”

Now we have word problems

Like “You have a one-dollar bill.

“How many dollars do you have

“If you do nothing and stand still?”

Despite the simplification

Of out mathematical riddles

We have fewer correct answers

And more restless thumb twiddles.

(In case you’re feeling curious

The answers are “transeuntes”

And, thanks to hyperinflation,

Somewhere around sixty-eight cents)

But We’re All Focused On Laser Guns Instead…

The whole Harry Potter idea

Where everyone owns an owl

Might not be super practical

But it would wipe away my scowl.

Humanism 101

Trading life for cash

Is a virtue unless you

Have wealthy parents.

The Best Possible Outcome

So we’re down three to one

With half an hour to play.

Let’s kick the ball to each other

And do nothing, okay?

Wait, you think we should try

To score after all?

With that attitude

Just give Belgium the ball!

Oh wait, you complied

And the score’s four to one?

Well done team! Now America

Can watch sports that are fun!
