Honest Resolutions

This year was wild and crazy

And I was indulgent and lazy.

This year I’ll endeavor

To sleep more than ever

And get rich like Martin Scorsese.

I Don’t Need Proof Through The Night That Our Flag Was Still There

There are two days of the year

Where fireworks and beer

Are acceptable for neighbors to abuse

And yet some neighbors (ours)

Must be from Venus instead of Mars

Because tonight’s the night they picked to light the fuse…

We’ll Start Next Year

Two days left to go

Of this wild and crazy year…

Peaceful at the gym

Fun Ideas For Improving The World #682

I think we need a theme park

Called IQ Test Land

Where every ride is deadly

(Intentionally planned)

And a prize will be given

To the one lucky guest

Who survives on the rides

Longer than all the rest.

It’s not a solution

Without any flaws

And may be against

International laws

But in the week that its open

The world will be cleared

Of many a person

Who think seat belts are weird.

That’s Why They Have You Beet…

There once were some people with torches

Who sat upon their front porches

And cried “People with pitchforks

“Are evil and rich dorks”

While the real evil people ate bortsch.

My Reincarnation Of Choice

One person’s trash is another man’s treasure

Which is why every single raccoon

Is living the life with their hot raccoon wife

As a billionaire garbage tycoon.

The Santa/Netflix Dichotomy

When people say that Santa Claus

Is, and has always been, white

I agree with them in principle

But ask if it’s alright

That going down a million chimneys

Every Christmas night

Would make him look like blackface

‘Cause I like to start a fight.

What I Want For Christmas

‘Twas the night before Christmas

And in every shop

The employees were praying

For the music to stop.

Then over the speakers

There came a great roar

Of earsplitting guitar,

Bass, and four on the floor.

The singer was screaming

About who-on-Earth-knows

And the customers shopping

For last minute clothes

Stood still in the aisles

And heard the hard rock

And were grateful to that guy

Who turned off the schlock.

An employee was fired

For changing the playlist

But the customers rallied

And described him as “A-list”

And as he departed

And the carols returned

The shoppers revolted…

Firing overturned!

So the metal resumed

And the shoppers came back

And they purchased roast beef

And sang “Back In Black”.

Unlock Next Year’s Poem For $99.99/Month (50% Off)?

I had a lovely afternoon

About which you’ll never hear

Because I’m saving the clever poems

For probably sometime next year.

Legitimate Question For The Floridians (Sending Love From Washington State)

So in the warm parts of the world

Where the snow never falls in December

Do they still play the same Christmas carols

Or some songs Northerners don’t remember

Like “I want a gator for Christmas”

Or “Chestnuts roasting in a forest fire”

Or my particular favorite:

“There’s no snow to shovel when I retire”?
