Flawless Logic

Victory is sweet.

Sweet things aren’t good for your health.

“Loser” means “healthy”.

Secrets From Da Biz

Play a little bit wrong

With a lottle bit of style

And the people gonna clap

And the judges gonna smile.

But if you play it perfectly

And accurately articulate

I hoping you enjoy standing

By the phone, where you’ll forever wait.

Untitled Goose Poem

You’re always here.

You’re always loud.

“I am a goose”

You shriek, so proud.

You’ll never leave.

Your song won’t cease.

For certainty

I thank you, geese.

Hey Boss, Today I’ve Prepared This 8-Hour Video For You Showing How Your Employee Spends A Typical Workday. It Will Be Graded

When a teacher is sick

They call in a sub

Who may or may not know the material.

I think all jobs

Should have similar deals

When they contract something bacterial.

If you get a cough

Or an ache or a wheeze

Your workplace will fet on a call

With some guy named “Jake”

Who comes to your desk

And proceeds to do no work at all.

I don’t want this deal

Because I slack off

Or because it will help anyone;

I want this because

If I could have any job

“Substitute you” would be pretty fun.

Manly Thoughts

We’ve marketed bottles water

And, in some places, fresh air.

I think next we should bottle sleep

(If the marketing people care).

Just twist the child-proof yellow cap

And chug an hour of rest.

Sure, we have caffeine for that

But caffeine’s not the best.

Instead, just but some shuteye

Or even forty winks

And feel refreshed much quicker

And save your bed for kinks.

I’m not sure how you’d do it

But I’m quite sure that we should.

But now I’ll sleep for free again

And pray for morning wood.

Innocence Dies First, Closely Followed By Spontaneity

Being an adult

Means you schedule things like sex

And video games

I Write While Sleepy On The Couch Before I Go To My Bed To Not Fall Asleep For Half An Hour

It’s bedtime again.

Tomorrow I go to work.

Life is Groundhog Day.

Wishing You A Fungus-Free New Year

I’m starting out the new year

By achieving my daily goals

Like writing my daily poetry

And avoiding benzimidazoles.

And yes, my new goals do include

Some oddly specific stuff

But that’s the sacrifice we make

Because rhyming is tough.

The Daily Mistake

Every day I write some rhymes

But in these most uncertain times

I find some days I have forgot:

I meant to write, but I did not.

Yesterday was an instance such

Where my discipline did lose its touch.

But now I’m back! Fear not my friend!

These cringeworthy verses have yet to end!

Modern Detox

If you’re in need of a business idea

I have a suggestion for you:

An apartment complex for people who want

To live like 1992.

The rent will be $500 a month

And the internet’s 10 sites or so,

Your neighbors are friendly, their kids play outside,

And Roseanne’s your favorite show.

A black Friday toaster is 25 cents

And so is a Big Mac with fries

And you can get Cracker Jack from Cracker Barrel

And it comes with an actual prize!

Phones have a wire, movies are physical

And they need to be rewound.

Nostalgia is hot. Spending money is not.

Does not this idea seem sound?
