The Lightbulb Gets An Idea

How many does it take to change me

The humans like to ask

To amuse themselves at my expense

While in my light they bask.

They love me not for what I am

But only what I do

And so I ask: Need I be changed

Or should the change be you?

Meet Unemployed Singles Today!

I quit my job at Burger Giant

And now I’m beating down the door

Of Indeed, Monster, and Jobs.com,

Along with several more.

Then something in me realized

That this process I was hating

Could learn a valuable lesson

From the world of online dating.

I would happily seek employment

On MatchMySkills.com,

Or how ’bout J-Job, FatGuysWork,

Or EmployMySingleMom?

If you want to outsource labor

There’s always AsianJobs to try,

For part time jobs: It’s Just ‘Til Lunch.

For waiting tables: Grown Men Don’t Fry.

I understand that on these

The industry won’t pounce,

But as Grandma always said

It’s the thought that counts.

Seriously, Why Not?

Dolphins are smart and playful,
But incapable of talking.
Why hasn’t someone hooked them up
To speak like Stephen Hawking?

Not even hollywood has thought
To contemplate that scenario
Instead the make “Sharknado 3.”
It must be they just don’t care-io.

Comparison

My quest to write one poem a day
Can really be looked at in this way:
Once per day I really need
One good idea as a seed,

And yet I crank out poems like this,
And some will hit while others miss.
Then I look at Hollywood
And my ideas seem pretty good.
