We’re Living In A Fairy Tale

Once, there were some evil kings

Who did a lot of evil things.

As times go, it was not pleasant.

Unfortunately, that time’s the present.

Experiment Successful

Seven people liked my Checkers poem.

Five liked my poem about Chess.

Does this prove something about my readers?

Read the title, then hazard a guess.

Checkers

Checkers is like Chess

If you like thinking less.

Chess

Chess is a game played on a board

Where you use wit and not a sword

To slay a king opposing yours

Instead of doing your daily chores.

The queen and rooks and pawns and knights

All run around and get in fights

To prove, once and for all, just who

Has nothing else better to do

Than read a hundred books about

Which piece is best to first move out

Or what series of moves will make concrete

The other colored king’s defeat.

It’s not a skill you learn in school.

It’s not a skill to make you cool

And yet Chess will outlive us all

So grab a board and have a ball!

You Can Pose For The Brochure Though!

Need a scholarship?

Are you brown or female?

Still no, but congrats.

Prove Me Wrong

The Seahawks win!

The Mariners too!

In Washington they shout “woohoo!”

The Jaguars lost.

The Blue Jays fell.

They have no fans, so all is well.

When The Island Is Closed

This year for halloween

I want to be a political elite

By staying out of the public eye

And putting a roundabout on your street.

Oktoberfest

We’ve entered the month

Where people dress up

And act like they’re German

And fill a big cup

With beer, eat a pretzel,

And fry up a brat.

Tonight you like polka:

Tomorrow, you’ll not.

Equity

Instead of arguing white vs. black,

Men vs. women, straights vs. gays,

Let’s just accept that we’re all kinda dumb

And move on with our kinda dumb days.
