Buck Shot, But Not Well

Sometimes when it’s peaceful

In the evening by the stream

I like to lie beside the bank

And oh-so-gently dream

That as the humans hunt the deer

The deer hunt us the same,

But humans never notice this

‘Cause deer have lousy aim.

At Least I Commit To Finishing Acrostics Though

I is for the intimacy we have yet to share

M is for the the many ways I show you I care

N is for how no one can compare

E is for “except that girl who has the pretty hair.”

V is for how very sorry I will claim to be

E is for that exceptional hair I never will unsee…

R is for I’m really sorry this time. Forgive me?

G is for the gift I’ll buy to say that I’m sorry

E is for how every day you give me another chance.

T is for the tightness you inspire in my pants

T is for your temperance, which totally rhymes with “dance”

I is for how I hope to rekindle our romance

N is for how nuts it is I ogle other girls

G is for “good thing I’m not into hair with sexy curls.”

L is for how light catches her hair as it unfurls…

A is for “Alright, alright! I’ll buy you some new pearls.”

I is for I really wish I were a better dude

D is for “Doggone it, if you weren’t such a prude…”

A is for apologizing for how I am lewd

G is for the golden curls falling upon the nude…

A is for “At least I didn’t finish the previous line.”

I is for the infinite ways you, my dear, are fine.

N is the never being bad again if you’ll remain as mine.

! is the punctuation after you vehemently decline.

Ode To J

What if there were a letter

That was pronounced like a Y,

But sometimes like DSH or an H

But it looked like a lowercase i?

The letter G would sounds like it

And it would be a name and a bird

And it would be madly exciting

But only if you are a nerd…

And I, For One, Think It’s Great*

There once was a fascist ideal

That stirred up political zeal.

It showed only news

Which supported its views

Then mandated we see its appeal.

*They have my family… help!

How To Make My Crush Fall Madly In Love With You

Roses are red,

Violets are blue,

Chocolate’s half price now

And I wonder… are you?

It Began As A Sleepy Soliloquy… It Ended As A Halftime Show

It’s past the time I need to go

To sleep, but here am I

Writing rhymes that rhyme sometimes

As many times I try

And why I try, I cannot lie,

Is just to try my luck

‘Cause I have no skill, but possibly still

I’ll be famous if I say white people suck.

A Romantic Holiday Indeed

Today’s a day we celebrate

The people with whom we mate

Buy buying chocolates that are nice

Because they cost double the price.

Then we go to crowded rooms

Filled with too many perfumes

And tip the waitresses a lot

‘Cause we know they’re single and also hot

And then we go back to our homes

And read our lovely ladies poems,

We do this, or else we fear

That we won’t get laid again this year.

Super Bowl LVI

There once were some sheep from LA

And a tiger got in their way.

In most cases, the cat

Would go “chomp” and that’s that

But alas, that did not work today.

The New Allied Forces?

I was looking at the stats today

For readers of my stuff;

India, Finland, and Singapore

Apparently love my fluff!

While those three all have “IN”

Somewhere within their name

They otherwise appear to have

Very little that is the same.

So to the folks in India,

Finland, and Singapore

Please accept my gratitude

And if there is a war

Know you have unlikely allies

Bonded by your hearts

That share appreciation

For the mediocre arts.

Ever Have That Dream That Happens Over and Over? Yeah…

So today my poem

Is autobiographical,

But that doesn’t mean it’s boring

Nor that it is bull…

I got up at 6:00 AM

And worked for 9 long hours,

After which I got undressed

For three back-to-back showers.

During shower number three

My brain turned on a sec

And instead of thinking, “Ooh, warm water”

It thought “Oh shoot! Oh heck!

“I was supposed to take a test

“That’s due at 5:00 PM!”

It thus proceeded to haw

And also, a bit, to hem.

Well, I expect to get a C

In the class who test I missed,

But instead of being angry, angsty,

Nervous, sad, or pissed

I decided to look on

The sunny side of life:

I know my dreams can come true now!

Now who’s that with my wife…?
