When You Live In The USA (Instead Of China, Turkey, Israel, Chile, Chad, or Georgia, FYI)

So there’s a country named for plates

And one for Thanksgiving birds.

One country claims it is real

But misspelled the last two thirds.

One is hot peppers. One’s just a name.

One is a Southeastern state.

And we’re just three stupid letters

With no puns attached. This I hate.

Pronunciation Matters

The church tells us

That prejudice is bad.

On the other hand, pre-Judas

Were the best years Jesus had.

It’s A Product And A Profession (Not Cannibals… The Other Bit)

Cannibals be like:

“Poultry farmers over there!“

“Chicken tenders! Yum!”

Innocence Dies First, Closely Followed By Spontaneity

Being an adult

Means you schedule things like sex

And video games

Crossover Opportunity?

Have you ever had a character

In your favorite game or show

That you either would like to be

Or wish would forever go?

Well now you can fulfill your dream

Thanks to Fortnite! It’s a game

Where every IP of all time

Gets shot in the face the same.

Sign on and join a universe

Of people 13+

Who unironically use terms

Like “Sigma”, “Bussin”, and “Sus”.

There you can play any game

While dressed as anyone

And after your kid tells you how to play

You might even have fun!

Only one can win each round

Out of a hundred players

But if you’re bad, don’t be so sad!

Play again and avoid your slayers.

Claim victory or somehow blow it

Until you see someone

Dressed as a certain terrible poet

Chasing you with a gun.

Glad I Minored In Minion Studies

I want to be a comic sidekick

Who is dorky but also inspiring.

I’ve no fears, I jerk tears, and bring laughter

But nobody seems to be hiring.

At least I can bring home some bacon

And dress in ridiculous ways

Right here at Volcanic Hideaways Inc.

Until evil brings about better days.

I Write While Sleepy On The Couch Before I Go To My Bed To Not Fall Asleep For Half An Hour

It’s bedtime again.

Tomorrow I go to work.

Life is Groundhog Day.

I Humbly Present…

Whoever decided “Present”

Should mean both “gift” and “now”

As well as “here” like “I am here”

And “here” like “take this cow”

Should be presented with a present

If they’re present in the present

‘Cause their presence in the past

Makes the present present as unpleasant.

Task Failed Successfully

They said I couldn’t write a poem

Without using the letter “E”.

They were right, and yet somehow

I’m happy as can be.

On occasion you may find

Satisfaction without complying.

Also, I don’t know how to cut out

My first stanza… not lying!

An Honorificabilitudinitatibus Love

I called her pulchritudinous.

She called me eellogofusciouhipoppokunurious.

Both of those are compliments

In case I made you curious.
