Plane And Simple

While early birds may get the worm

Another truth may make you squirm:

Early birds often get

Sucked into a jet

And thus, to sleep late, I affirm.

Seriously Though!

Instead of advertisements

That interrupt your day

I think we should have achievements

That say to you “Hooray!

“You did a thing that worked

“And your team from [insert brand]

“Reminds you that you’re awesome

“And we’re giving you a hand!”

If a business did this

I would probably buy their stuff.

Instead, we’re scared or guilted

Into brands by a digital bluff.

So if you are a corporation

(‘Cause corporations are people too)

And you read this far, I hope that

You’ll do what you need to do.

Socializing in 2024

I’m at a party.

My phone is at nine percent…

My life is over!

You’ve Identified The Problem… What’s Your Solution?

If you call out “Woe is me”

Be assured that you are right,

For only you can cause the grief

Of thinking through the night,

Of worrying from dawn to dusk

Of things you’ve yet to do.

But if you choose to not be woe

You’re wise among the few.

Still Better Than Status Quo

What if, instead of an election,

We had a Mr. Beast style event

Where we rented a hall full of obstacles

And made every potential president

Stay in the room with the challenge

To be the first one to tell us the truth.

I think that’s an alternate system

That would better engage with the youth.

Debate Limerick, 2024

There once was a were roses were blue

Or they were red, but they can be that too

And they went oh gone by the thing

And the… he’s a bad flower and I’m king

And we beat medicare and covid is a jew.

Yes, I’m Typing This In My Underwear At 10:52… Why Do You Ask? (No Really Though… That’s A Weirdly Specific Question…)

I was lying in my bed

With a pillow for my head

And that covered-flat-other-bit for my feet.

But my somnambulant reflections

Gave my mind well-times reflections

And I didn’t forget a poem today. Neat!

Still Better Than Poetry

I applied for a new job today

With better benefits and pay.

It’s that eel that pops out

From a rock, looks about,

And goes back inside 10,000 times a day.

Am I Sexy And Dangerous Now?

Roses are red.

Vegans are pale.

When they read my blog in 10 years

They’ll probably put me in jail.

Vegans Rejoice!

If you advertise a place

For a Weight Watchers meet and greet

But it’s not an officially-branded event

Is that an imitation pork meet?
