Socializing in 2024

I’m at a party.

My phone is at nine percent…

My life is over!

You’ve Identified The Problem… What’s Your Solution?

If you call out “Woe is me”

Be assured that you are right,

For only you can cause the grief

Of thinking through the night,

Of worrying from dawn to dusk

Of things you’ve yet to do.

But if you choose to not be woe

You’re wise among the few.

Still Better Than Status Quo

What if, instead of an election,

We had a Mr. Beast style event

Where we rented a hall full of obstacles

And made every potential president

Stay in the room with the challenge

To be the first one to tell us the truth.

I think that’s an alternate system

That would better engage with the youth.

Debate Limerick, 2024

There once was a were roses were blue

Or they were red, but they can be that too

And they went oh gone by the thing

And the… he’s a bad flower and I’m king

And we beat medicare and covid is a jew.

Yes, I’m Typing This In My Underwear At 10:52… Why Do You Ask? (No Really Though… That’s A Weirdly Specific Question…)

I was lying in my bed

With a pillow for my head

And that covered-flat-other-bit for my feet.

But my somnambulant reflections

Gave my mind well-times reflections

And I didn’t forget a poem today. Neat!

Still Better Than Poetry

I applied for a new job today

With better benefits and pay.

It’s that eel that pops out

From a rock, looks about,

And goes back inside 10,000 times a day.

Am I Sexy And Dangerous Now?

Roses are red.

Vegans are pale.

When they read my blog in 10 years

They’ll probably put me in jail.

Vegans Rejoice!

If you advertise a place

For a Weight Watchers meet and greet

But it’s not an officially-branded event

Is that an imitation pork meet?

What Do You Mean We Have Weird Books In Our School Libraries?

Meet Vlad.

Vlad is sad.

Vlad thinks climate change is bad.

Vlad cannot cite sources? Woah!

But xe’s doing xir best though.

Vlad knows that to stop the pain

Of having marginally less rain

Because of heat that cow fart brings

Means having to do some painful things.

Vlad helps Earth by blocking cars

And hanging flyers up at bars.

Xe spray paints slogans over art

And lives out of a shopping cart.

Xe knows capitalism is bad.

And so is having a present dad.

Be like Vlad and we’ll show you lenience:

The climate depends on your inconvenience.

This Poem Is Sponsored By Thulium… Because Atomic Number 420 Doesn’t Exist Yet

I hope we never discover

Another element for the periodic table

‘Cause you know they’d name it “Deeznutzium”

Or something like that if they’re able.
