When People Ask Why I Keep Writing

One day, organized crime

Will decide that now is the time

To launder some money

Through low art that is funny

And also just happens to rhyme.

D&D Players Know This Well

There once was a wizard of fire

Who was wont to displays of great ire

That involved fireballs

Amidst narrow walls

And this made his companions retire

One’m Really Sorry Guys…

Who got stabbed by a harpoon.

The medic said, “He

“Really needs an IV.”

The Roman said, “It’s a four, you buffoon!”

Who cut the wire on my post from two days ago and now it’s done…

Tomorrow looks at the news

And see what collectionspeedyae66825e51 did choose,

But for now I’m going to collectionspeedyae66825e5 RUN!

Netflix Adaptations Claim Another Beloved IP

There once was fish that was blue

And instead of just one there were two

And another was black.

Red you say? That sounds wack!

And also the fish were gay too.

Tails, You Lose

Mermaids tried to lure my friend Seth

To his untimely maritime death.

They were lithe and coquettish

But Seth has a foot fetish

And has yet to draw his final breath.

Origins Of Chess

There once was a man with a horse

That would not walk straight without force.

Inspired by this thought

The horse was soon shot

And the man made a board game instead.

When They Won’t Sing The Last Song Until Dean What’s-His-Face Reiterates For The Fourth Time What An Honor And privilege It Is To Congratulate His Colleague On A Career That Has Been Rewarding In So Many Innumerable Ways, Among Which Are…

There once was a director of the choir

Who, after 50 years, decided to retire.

His boss gave a speech

Of such momentous reach

That I had no choice but to open fire.

Limerick vs. LinkedIn

There once was a guy named Bob

Who’d never had a job.

He lived on his own

Died all alone,

Decomposed into an unrecognizable blob.

OR

Writing to share the memory of my beloved colleague and life coach, Robert.

He was a man of unparalleled entrepreneurial vision,

A self-made man and independent thinker

Who lived life on his own terms.

His passing inspires us all to further our ownership,

Reflect on our humility,

And scale our amorphous impacts toward the next incarnation of progress.
