Tick Tock? Wait… That’s Not Right…

I had an hour this evening

So I watched Youtube for ten minutes.

Now it’s Saturday morning.

Funny how life goes, innit?

Technology? Up! Art? Ummmm… I’m Probably Not Qualified To Judge, But…

A lot of people are amazed

How in one hundred years

We went from riding horses

To the moon and diet beers.

What I find less impressive

Is that in that same epoch

We went from the Statue of David

To “Is this bedazzled pineapple a joke?”

Is It Too Late To Enlist?

I wished to be a poet. I thought that would be fine

But I had to be a sailor; I could only write two lines

And a gee and a hey and doodle dawdle yah!

Oh my English class was easy, that much is very true,

But I’d only write twelve syllables and not a whole haiku

And a gee and a hey and doodle dawdle yah!

But if you have no talent for stayin’ ‘round a while

They told me that the Navy would snap me up and smile

And a gee and a hey and doodle dawdle yah!

Turns out in the Navy there’s a whole entire job

For writing two line songs to sing while cleanin’ with a swab

And a gee and a hey and doodle dawdle yah!

My captain has a button that can nuke our enemies

But I can make him tap his foot across the seven seas

And a gee and a hey and doodle dawdle yah!

And a gee!

And a hey!

And doodle

Dawdle

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Ready To Change The World?

If you’re thinking of a career change

One job has quite low stress:

Suicide bombers will always retire

Right after their greatest success.

My Evening

Fourth and seven Bills:

Kincaid almost got the catch…

Well #*$&… Go Eagles!

Pay The Bills, Or Pay The Refs?

In this divisive political era

We all have the power to choose

If we will sit idly and watch life happen

Or to fight back and help evil lose.

That’s why I ask you to kneel and pray

For the fateful occasion tomorrow

And ask whatever divine you believe in

To cause the Chiefs justice and sorrow.

So, SO Ber

I am the guy who doesn’t drink

But you would never know.

I order fancy cocktails like

A coke and H2O,

A margarita with just the rocks,

A daiquiri sans gin,

A Moscow Mule without the lime

And hold the liquid sin.

These lines and others have done me right

And now I’m proud to be

Watching some Youtube on Friday night

Just I, Myself, and Me!

That Guy In Front Of You’s Philosophy

Red light? Stop!

Green light? Go!

Yellow light? Apparently

That one means “drive real slow”.

Shoulda Sat?

Lonely toilet, late at night.

I don’t need no stinkin’ light.

Wait? Why don’t I hear a splash?

Oops! Guess that bowl was the trash.

Pets

A dog can be bouncy, beautiful, brash,

A lover of children, a chewer of trash,

A pooper, a woofer, a good boy or girl,

Who can sit, stay, roll over, shake hands, even twirl.

A dog is a friend, a companion, a pillow,

With fur short like mown grass or long like a willow.

A dog will be loyal. Meanwhile, a cat

Will be catty, get fatty, and thus that is that.
