The Future Of Marriage

I love myself. I’m awesome.

I do, myself, amaze.

I really am incredible

In oh so many ways.

That’s why I decided

To buy myself a ring

And propose to myself romantically

While the doves of morning sing.

Alas, I’m so amazing

That I’m too good for me

So I turned down the proposal

And sobbed and said “Hehe.”

I am all distraught, and yet

I’m strong of will and mettle

Knowing that I’m great enough

To never, ever settle.

Preview of the State of the Union, 2023

Socks suck!

That’s an absolute fact.

They make your feet sweaty

And fail to attract.

They’re itchy and tubular,

Brown, black, and white

But if paired with some sandals

I guess they’re alright…

The Racist Test

Asians are little.

White people are bigger.

The next largest up

Would have to be the magnitude of panic in your eyes when I start reading this poem on the streets of any major city at night.

Two Jobs That Make Six Figures But Nobody Respects

I heard a job ad this afternoon:

“Need a change in career?

“Get a class A CDL

“And drive a big rig here.”

The company that advertised

Was “Johnson’s Gas and Lubricant Shipping”

And I figured it was close enough

To my current job of stripping…

After all, I already know

How to handle giant hardware,

How to move lube on the night shift,

And stopping traffic isn’t rare.

I load cargo in the backdoor

And handle massive logs

And I’ve known my share of pigs

(As well as cows and dogs).

I’ve made a living dancing

But now I just can’t wait

To sit all day upon my butt

‘Cause I know my butt is great!

She’s Lived 90 Years Already, And The Guard Rail Needs to Be Tested Now And Again

I am stuck behind a car

Who doesn’t know quite where they are

And so decide to navigate

By traveling at 28.

I am stuck behind this guy

And starting to examine why

They made a law to punish those

Who ram the guys who hog the roads.

But Oh That Tan…

The heat is getting hot in here

And the sun is really sunny,

Unlike when it rained so hard

It was damp and unfunny.

I like it when it’s hot sometimes

Unlike my colleague, Heather

Who thinks she’s good-looking enough

To talk about the weather.

…Play Dead… Yeah, That’s The Whole Joke

If I were a possum

And also a poet

I’d write while I’m scared

And the writing would show it;

I’d start a stanza

But when filled with dread

I’d

It’s The Thought That Counts?

I wrote this poem earlier

But published it tonight.

I hope you find that tactic

Is both fair and alright.

I did it ‘cause when I am tired

And weary from the day

My poems are bland and meaningless,

But so’s this one, so hey!

When Thy Quarry Escapeth And Thy Counterpart Is Not Amusethed

The itsy-bitsy spider

Was sitting on the floor,

Having a rest

Beneath the cabinet door.

I came to smash him

And end his worthless life

But he crawled away to safety…

Now I have to face the wife.

A Meal To Die For

I was in Transylvania

On a foolish holiday

When a vampire decided

To make me not ok.

I saw that he was hungry

But I sought to understand

What filled this monster’s heart

In this spooky far-off land.

He said when he was mortal

He had owned a ranch,

And the finest heads of cattle

Came from his European branch.

He longed for the days of yore

When cooking was an art,

So I cooked him up a ribeye.

It was a steak through his heart.
