Oh, You’d Prefer To Hear About How He Ran Fast Instead? Typical…

This is Spot.

Spot is a dog.

Spot spots his “spot spot”

(Where spot peed on a log).

Spot spotted Spot’s “spot” spot

In Spot’s “spot spot” spot

But Spot’s spotter, Miss Potter,

Alas spotted not.

Since Miss Potter missed Spot’s spot,

In an act of good will

Spot pointed Miss Potter

But she spotted-not still.

Spot spotted Miss Potter

(His Spotter) her pay

And Spot spotted his “spot spot”

And sped on his way.

“Award Winning” Vs. “Best Selling”

For those who want to differentiate

Between “Fiction” and “Literature”

Here’s a handy-dandy little guide:

It’s fiction if the story

Has a point and ends in glory.

Literature ends when boring people die.

An Introvert’s Afternoon (Or Why I Don’t Read As Much As I Used To)

You look so comfy on the couch

Quietly reading your book.

Why don’t we turn on the TV

And then leave you alone in your nook

And if you attempt to turn off the show

We’re not watching, we’ll come back and say

“Turn that back on”, then proceed to tell you

All the bad stuff we thought of today.

Subtitles Wa, Kawaii Desu

I watched American cartoons

All day every day.

My dad said I should read more

So now I watch anime.

I Like An Easy Read

I’ve discovered I’m a psychic.

It’s really pretty slick!

If found out when my lover

Thought “I hope he’s not psychic.”

Well that relationship

Ended on an ironic note

When I shouted “ha ha, I am!”

And that was all she wrote…

Being a psychic in the dating pool

Is fun, to say the least.

I know which gal’s have hearts of gold

And which have infected yeast.

Now the mind of every man

Is a delightfully simple thing,

Like Indiana Jones

And the temple of “do I buy a ring?”

A woman’s mind is more complex

Like the tale of War and Peace

But from an eagle’s point of view

And written in Taiwanese.

I’ve gotten used to psychic life

And find a girl I may,

But when it comes to reading minds

I think I’m kinda gay.
