I’m in love with a rabbit
Whom I have named Hop.
She’s got soft auburn hair
And legs that won’t stop.
…
I’ve just been informed
That she is a “bunny.”
I guess that explains
Why she asked me for money.

The Missing Element
I enjoy the first course,
And the second course too.
They were a fine salad
And also fine stew.
But by the third course
I thought “what a waste”
To have a meal in which
I could find no distaste.
So I pulled out my hair
To put in my entree,
And complained about it
When the waiter came my way.
All in all, Chez Fancié
Stood up to its clout.
I hope next time they serve
Something to bitch about.
Ah, To Have A Memory
“You shouldn’t use your phone at night”
Is what, to me, they tell.
But this evening I must say
It turned out pretty well.

The Second Time You Hear A Joke
He said “Knock Knock.”
I said “Who’s there.”
He said “you.”
It was true,
But I still didn’t care.

Facebook Updates
I sat six hours in a car
To go and visit somewhere far.
It didn’t rain. It didn’t snow.
I just thought you ought to know.
(Not actually my dinner).

How To Jump A Car
This poem is a preview from my upcoming book of 99 “How-To” Poems. Enjoy!
Your car won’t start?
Well, lucky you!
I envy what
You’ll get to do.
You’ll need another car
And a valiant heart.
Got both? Good!
It’s time to start.
First, get in the car
With the working battery.
Turn it on (You do that
By inserting and turning the key).
Have a friend prepare two ramps,
One on either side
Of your old dead-battery car.
Make sure they’re nice and wide.
Then drive full speed onto the ramp
And let that new car fly!
Look down, if you want, onto your old car
And pray that you don’t die.
And when you land successfully
On the other ramp, well look:
You’ve just learned to jump a car.
Aren’t you glad you bought this book?

Mirror Burns
I created a monster this weekend.
I call it “Ms. Evil Head.”
It’s like a mirror, but I gaze in it
And see your face instead.
