Tonight I logged onto my blog
Although the hour was late
And saw that people liked my post
Just called “5688”.
Apparently my mind designed
To make my memory marred
To the degree that writing out
A title was too hard.
But mind, I am resilient!
Your trick’s a hidden blessing!
Now I know how many posts
I’ve written without guessing.
So here’s to poem 5689
And the many more to come;
The great, the late, on every date
And, most of all, the dumb.

Tonight’s the night
I forgot to write,
Though not by choice
Nor lack of voice.
So now I mock
My writer’s block
And from my bed
Thank insomnia instead.
And now my daily burden done
I await the smiling morning sun
So I can say, “Good morning,” and then
Go happily back to sleep again.

So I hear you’re watching Jeopardy
And thinking “hey, that could be me.”
Alas, the auditions passed
And it turns out you weren’t cast.
Sure it’s sad, but cheer up the though!
I’ll cast you for another show.
If you’re good at playing games,
And have trouble remembering names
You’re on the show! Congrats! Yoo hoo!
It’s called “how the heck does that guy know you?”
