Shooting Star

A dinosaur wished upon a star:

“I wish the pain would stop!”

The star pulled out its Glock and said

“You’re lucky I’m a cop.”

When Your Circadian Rhythm Plays Jazz

As we wander, wounded,

Through the world of time and space

We can lie horizontally

With a pillow in our face

And reset the weary burdens

We have gained throughout the day,

Except whenever I try to do so

My brain wakes up to play…

I Wrote My Mom A Good Poem. This Isn’t It, You Freeloader :-)

I like to think of weird jokes

So I wrote one and hid it.

It’s not a “Yomama” joke

‘Cause then everyone would get it!

That Climax Be Like…

There was a bomb on main street

Set to blow at 5:08

I pulled up at 5:14

Because the traffic made me late.

I had only seconds left

Before the bomb blew me away

An hour later ’twas defused

And I, the hero, saved the day!

Anyway

I haven’t been touched like that for a while,

Long enough to forget the taste of a smile,

‘Cause who needs love when you’re in denial anyway?

I couldn’t tell you about my best friend,

Haven’t written letters that I want to send.

What good are people when the world is ending anyway?

Even though I know I lived through the past

I can’t remember when I forgot time last.

Why can’t the years alone go by so fast anyway?

I haven’t been touched like that for a while,

Was living in a life marching single file

‘Cause who needs love when you’re in denial anyway?

Thanks for listening even when it’s tough.

A lot of people need to say this kind of stuff.

Now I feel and I hope that I’ve said enough.

Anyway…

Perhaps?

“Maybe Baby” is an overused rhyme,

So said my love, May Bee.

But I said, “Maybe, May Bee, my baby,

“But be that as it may,

“Maybe let ‘Maybe Baby’ be as it may be.”

Math Is Hot

Circular houses are warmer

Than square houses, I’ve found;

Square houses are ninety degrees in the corners

But circles are 360 all around!

Why Poetry Is Art

If, in normal conversations,

It were assumed that one should rhyme

We’d have a better grasp of grammar

And awkward silence a lot of the time.

Thus Endeth The Renaissance

Her hobbies are dressing provocatively

Then adding a dog’s nose and ears,

Posting pictures of asses to inspire the masses

That love’s always stronger than fears.

My hobbies are murdering aliens

And playing professional ball,

Though I sometimes relax by swinging an ax

And sometimes by catching ’em all.

OI?

Someone told me

R*pe jokes aren’t funny.

I said, “You’re right, they’re knot.”

The time wasn’t ripe

To leave anyone hanging,

So I used a different * than they thought.
