Is This How Pokemon Started?

Tiger tiger, burning bright

In the zoo, so late at night.

Alas, it seems those corporate jerks

Failed to show how the extinguisher works.

Are You There God? It’s Me, Fluffles

I am a fearsome hunter

And have killed a hundred men

And yet I sleep in peace, filled with

Tranquility and zen

Because someday I hope I may

Catch some deity’s eye.

They’ll think I’m cute and house me

In their mansion in the sky,

They’ll feed me all I can consume

And rub my belly while

Saying “Who’s a good warrior?”

With a goofy voice and smile,

And let me come and go all day

Through a small transparent flap

Instead of being human

And putting up with all this crap.

The Science Of Attraction

If you say something sweet to a glacier

And it melts their icy heart

They quietly whisper, “thawwwwwww”

And that’s how global warming starts.

Buffy Is Moving To Europe

Do vampires get uncomfortable

When writing a lowercase “t”?

When they order at a restaurant

Do they request their water unholy?

Do they avoid places that eat lots of garlic

And even avoid such a smell?

Because my conclusions lead me to believe

Italy is just vampire hell.

How Wars Start

Iran said to America, “You da bomb.”

America said, “No, you da bomb.”

And everything would have been ok

Except Israel ran and told their mom.

The Things I Do For My Wife

Today I ran a 5K race

With dribbling rain upon my face.

I paid thirty dollars to

Earn a free donut to share with you.

Now I’m soggy, tired, and sore

And I weigh at least a donut more,

But I see a smile in your eyes

And that is why I exercise.

I’ve Solved Crime!

Instead of putting folks in jail

Then releasing them later

What if we dressed criminals

So they looked like Darth Vader,

Make them wear black armor

And fill rooms with smoke

And whenever they breath

Make it sound like a choke?

That way when you’re walking

Down a poorly-lit street

You’d know if that stranger

You happened to meet

Is an innocent traveler

Who needs help with a tire

Or a half-robot mugger

Who’s also a liar.

They Weren’t Laughing… But There Were Other Signs

If anyone here is deaf

I have an important question:

Do I start jokes with “Have you heard the one about…”

Or do you have a better suggestion?

Follow For More Post-Apocalyptic Recipes

The sky has fallen

The sea has boiled

The Earth has shaken

The contingency’s foiled

The zombies prowl

But I’m okay:

Whipped cream goes “psshhhh”

And they can’t take that away
