World Design 101

You ask me if there is a god

And I say that I hope not

For I have traveled o’er the world

And many treasures sought

Yet behind every waterfall

I found just rocky flat.

Who would wish a god exists

Who makes a world like that?

The Cardinals Uniform Designer, Apparently

What if we made shirts

Out of used toilet paper

And called it a day?

Choice of the FedEx Driver

I could park my truck

And walk up to the house

And place a package on the door

Or hand it to a spouse.

I also have the option

To relive my high school ways

And chuck a 40-yard touchdown

With whatever peasants buy these days…

Hark! I, The Bard, Doth Telleth Of Some Happenings That Art Off The Hook, Yo!

“Once upon a time…”

Is the ye olde way to say

“Get a load of this…”

U OK, UK?

Everyone’s welcome in dear old England

Regardless of color or race

But if you think memes are amusing

It’s best that you don’t show your face.

Kids These Days…

My parents were trees;

I’m a cone that you step on

To make crackle sounds.

Secretary Of War

At the Battle of Thermopylae

480 BC

299 Spartans

Marched to meet Xerxes.

Meanwhile, Jeffichus the imprecise

Was tasked with taking the minutes

Instead of marching into war

‘Cause it’s close enough to 300, innit?

Line. Breaks. Matter.

As I drive down the highway

I see dozens of signs:

Slower

Traffic

Keep

Right

Right

Lane

Ends

Adopt a

Highway

Litter

Control

And I think to myself

“These sign writers are overdoing the enjambment.”

Health Class Paid Off

Body builder said

“Feel my upper back”, but I

Knew it was a trap.

Sincerely, Men

Women talk about

Other women talking ‘bout

Other women. Why?
