Lots Of Variety, At Least

I’ve got a great idea

For an online dating site

Wherein critical care patients

Can be Mister or Miss Right.

Those not long for this world

From Tennessee to Guam

Can find a short-term love

At ExpirationDate.com

Dilemmas Of Modern Romance… Yet Another True Story

As a person young

In age and heart

The search for love is,

In my life, a part.

But amidst all the boasting,

The flirting, the pink

There come candid answers

That force you to think:

When You Have The Heart Of A Lion But She Has The Sensibilities Of A Homo Sapien

We met online at 12:00 AM

And bonded over cats.

We bared our souls with smileys

And confirmed the predictions of anonymous stats.

We texted back and forth a bit

Before we met in real life.

You thought I was kinda cute.

I knew you’d be my wife.

But as the days and weeks went by

Our love was less smooth than I was hopin’.

You kept some of the gifts I sent you

But the boxes of dead rodents, you didn’t open!

So now I’m naked, watching Louie

On Amazon TV

Regretting how your heart did not

Know how much that cat-bonding meant to me.

Heyyyyyy Ladies

Message if you want to,
But I’ll save you some time:
I love ’90’s country music
And I don’t want a partner in crime.

If you don’t use “whom correctly”
Or distinguish “your” and “you’re”
Stay friendly with your loneliness
For I won’t be your cure.

I’m a diehard Libertarian
And I earn a poet’s wage.
I’m more honest than you’d like
And look nothing like Nick Cage.

If you’ve endured this poem
Without committing seppuku
Then here is what I will repeat:
Message if you want to.

eHarmony

Where have the real men gone, you ask,

And where have the damsels fled?

I hope the internet can tell me.

Meanwhile, I’ve got my bed.

Hey there gurrls

On the internet.

I’m the sexiest nerd

You have digitally met.

My can read my handle:

TentaclesRMyLyfe.

I don’t mind you’re 16,

You can still be my wife.

You see my profile pic

With my shirt on the floor.

I know my photoshopped abs

Will make you swipe right for sure.

If you like obscure jokes

Come and give me a shout.

I’ve got a ragout rabbit

If your cooking’s maxed out.

Can I go all night?

Well, show you I will!

I can warranty that promise

With a little white pill.

So if you’re game, sexy,

Why not give me a “like?”

We’ll ride to heaven together

On my two-seater bike.

Word Choice

I always thought I was the type of pig
Who built his house of bricks,
But on my online dating profile
I referred to women as “chicks.”

I don’t know how I’ll find true love,
After dropping such a bomb.
I guess the fire that burned my bridge
Started with a match.com
