Like springtime peaches
Or December pears
Her disposition was sour.
Her malcontent
Left ripening
For well over an hour.
She left me not
A tip that night
Since the service was so slow.
I’m not the kind
To ruin food
But brake lines… Yes or no?

If we ever know world peace
We’d have all the luck,
But all of the to-be-released
“Call of Duty” games would suck.

The human-style animals
Are the happiest animals on four legs.
Look around and you will see it’s true.
Yet the casual observer
May see a change in disposition
In those humanoids who walk around on two.
I do not idolize
Celebrities who sing,
Who make emotions at a camera
Or hold a bat and swing.
I don’t talk about religion,
Politics or TV,
Or the theory of evolution
(Unless it’s in the context of eevee).
You might think me quiet,
And most often you’re spot on,
But bring up something interesting
And I’ll go on and on.
So if you want to know what’s new,
Do not ask me “how are you?”

Three short poems in a row
May feel a bit like cheating
Today’s this poet’s birthday
And I’m much too busy eating.

I’ve fallen in love, which traps me
Between a hard place and a rock
‘Cause she’s a sandals type of girl
And I… Well, I’m a sock.

Beige fields of wheat
As far as the eye can see.
In Kansas again.

Strong as an ant
And fat as a pig,
I’m always in awe
Of Hubert the Big.
He works as a bouncer
And lives at the gym,
His hair oft askew
Like he got a bad trim.
Hugh pays for luxuries
On his Wednesday nights
In a DIY octagon
Hosting amateur fights.
I thought he was gruff,
Vulgar, manly, and dumb
‘Til he invited me over
And I met his Mum…

I don’t want to learn French,
Russian, Greek, or Spanish
‘Cause when Esperanto hits the news
Those languages will vanish
And everyone will be at peace
And speak identically,
And when they do, I’m telling you,
It’ll be a sound to see.

I’m the guy who has a lot;
The guy who wants for nothing
Except a rhyme for a poor setup.
Now look at me. I’m bluthing!
