Cause and Effect

Birthday cake is good.

Every day someone is born.

Ergo: I am fat.

Trump’s on Epstein’s list.

My Favorite Superhero

We’ve got people addicted to drugs,

Alcohol, porn, and their phones

Yet my cat hears someone say “pspspspsps”

And just feels content deep in his bones.

A Practical Alternative to Thoughts and Prayers

I think we need a reverse Make-a-Wish

Where kids with cancer go see

Some self-absorbed millionaire bozos

Who’re all caught up in “poor me”,

And little bald Kaleb can smile

And give Mr. Rich a high five.

If we do this enough they might donate stuff

And the cancer kids might stay alive.

Amusing Musings In A World Without Muses Blues

Today I got up early

Around 5:00 AM or so. Um,

I spent my morning working

But not writing a poem.

I ate my lunch and read a book

With my mind never immersed

In considering a meter

Nor its counterpart of verse.

This evening after dinner

I took a shower hot

And massaged my wife’s posterior

Without a single thought

Regarding writing poetry,

Yet presently I’m writing it

So if you’d beat your writer’s block

Perhaps you should stop fighting it.

The YouTuber’s Origin Story

One camera.

Two fools.

Three hours of editing.

Zero rules.

Nine minutes

About a cruise.

Two hours later

Seven views.

Upsides

The nice thing about AI ads

Is that they’re poorly done

So I’ve no need to buy their stuff

And so declare we won.

Another proof of victory

Is that the CEOs shelled out

A lot of money for this tech

And thus without a doubt

Will double down on ineffective

Tools for advertising.

AI will bring a golden age

Of happily not buying!

The Introvert’s Decision

Go big or go home?

Suffice to say I am not

Fond of going big.

The Internet Is On Life Support

So you’re telling me your business

Uses AI to write reviews

To improve my website traffic

And increase my daily views?

Then you show your website

And your 4.9 on Yelp

And expect me to believe you?

No, I do not need your help.

Indian Fireworks Vs. The Legal Crap

Fireworks and fireworks!

Kazam! Kazee! Badoo!

One flies up and lights the sky;

It makes me think of you.

Fireworks and fireworks

Far as the eye can see!

One flies up and fizzles;

It makes you think of me.
