Frodo’s Notes In The Margin

“Bring the ring to Mordor, kid”

Gandalf told me and so I did.

It caused me scars that forever linger,

Mostly that I can’t give Gandalf the finger.

Thanks, Millennials

If you’d like a hamburger

It only costs a dollar.

If you want cheese on it

It’ll cost you dollars two.

Want to add some bacon?

That’s two dollars fifty.

Want some avacado?

Your firstborn kid will do.

Or Did The Fact They Never Heated Up Mean The Prophecy Came True After All?

Somebody said to the NFL

“You gotta cool your jets”.

Alas, the Jets were never cool

Not unlike marionettes.

They Were Viva-ing La Vida Alright…

There once was a CEO

Who went to a Coldplay show.

The HR-H.O.E.

Said, “Kiss cam? OMG!”

And now the whole world’s in the know.

Notting Hill

There once was a good-looking chap

Who spilled juice on a movie star’s lap.

They would, then they wouldn’t,

They could but they couldn’t,

And, my goodness, their acting was crap.

Go big or go home?

Suffice to say I am not

Fond of going big.

Location Is Everything

Shelly sells seashells at the seashore.

Nobody quite knows what she does this for.

No one buys the shells she sells, so I am pondering

If Shelly’s shells are a shell business for money laundering.
