Gun Control Logic Be Like…

There once was a gal in a chair

Who got stabbed while she sat there.

We then rightly deduced

Murders can be reduced

By banning all sitting. Sound fair?

TL;DR — Game of Thrones

There once was a powerhouse show

About dragons and some dude called Snow.

It ran for eight seasons

But for several reasons

We don’t talk about it no mo’.

They Were Viva-ing La Vida Alright…

There once was a CEO

Who went to a Coldplay show.

The HR-H.O.E.

Said, “Kiss cam? OMG!”

And now the whole world’s in the know.

Notting Hill

There once was a good-looking chap

Who spilled juice on a movie star’s lap.

They would, then they wouldn’t,

They could but they couldn’t,

And, my goodness, their acting was crap.

Wait… Did The French Just Surrender To Tourists?

So the Louvre closed its doors today

Which is how Mona Lisa would say

“Je ne t’aime pas

“Alors au revoir.”

(And yes, those do rhyme by the way)

Challenge Accepted

And so I lounged on a borrowed couch

Devoid of inspiration

And instead of making the difficult choice

To use my imagination

I went onto my phone to search

The internet for an answer

And I recalled why random prompts

Are worse, perhaps, than cancer.

But undeterred, despite misgivings

I shall now attempt

To write what poetrypromptgenerator.com

Gave me without contempt:

There once was a sanctimonious hand-wringer

Whose neurotic pedantry gave a metaphorical finger

To those who deign to carouse

With those of osseous brows.

Some compare me to him as a visual dead ringer.

Pride Month Makes Saving Money Easier

So today I went out to eat

And a rainbow was on my receipt.

Inspired, I resolved

To not get involved

Buying anything ‘til I feel July’s heat.

Meaning? Maybe. Rhymes? Absolutely!

There once was a dame with no name

Who spent days playing a lame game.

Her tame claim to fame came

When her aim to blame the same game

Overcame her shame of being no-name.

The Hero’s Journey

There was a reluctant young hero

Whose number of close friends was zero.

An old mentor said “Hey,

“Want to come save the day?”

Kid agreed, and the whole world did cheer-o.

Good… You’re Finally Awake!

There once was a dragonborn chap

Who fell into an Imperial trap.

But in an odd twist

He was not on the list

And then down a dragon did flap…
