Kitty Says…

I brought them a gift.

It flew off and bit their kid.

I’m the goodest boy.

No Fire Breath Required

Soon the dragons will come returning

And watch our nations burn and fall

And say, “My goodness, look at them go!

“Guess they didn’t need us after all.”

Listening Is Hard

“What do you want for your birthday?”

So many have asked this of me,

Yet I still have zero doomsday devices

And seventy-two graphic tees…

Marriage Means Always Discovering New Things

Today I discovered

That farting into the air purifier

Makes the lights go red

And the fans go brrrrrrr.

Today my wife discovered

That she made a terrible mistake

By not saving her farts

Until she was closer to the air purifier.

#Love

How The Mighty Have Fallen

Remember when Pixar had a lamp

That hopped up and down on the “I”?

Now it just asks the “I” for its pronouns

Before movies that don’t make me cry.

“Signature Required… Eventually”

FedEx guy in California

Has a job that’s really tough:

He sits inside a warehouse

That contains my purchased stuff.

The tracking number tells him

It needs to ship today

But he’s busy playing Solitaire

So my stuff will have to stay.

Just Do Something!

I have started many a poem

Upon this empty screen

And deleted many an opening line

Never again to be seen,

Censored preemptively many a thought

And pitilessly pruned prose

And yet still end up with something like this,

Illustrating how much writing goes.

We Returned It Twice, But He Keeps Insisting…

Big fat fluffy cat

Thinks our Amazon wish list

Includes a dead bird

Win-Win

If we throw the politicians

Into the holy volcano of K’raxx’iss

We’ll either ensure a bountiful harvest

Or pay a lot less in taxes.

Share This With Anyone Who Disses Your Business Idea

Styrofoam peanuts

Plus some sugar and orange paint:

Still in business how?
