Not A Peppy Pepsi Poem

I wanted to write something witty

About coaxing cans of Coke

Somehow involving slang cocaine

But then my noggin broke.

Now I’m writing a poem

About how my dreams aren’t coming true.

Sounds like 2017

To me. How ’bout to you?

An Excerpt From Baltimore’s “Most Popular Baby Names”

I really don’t think I shoulda

Named my child Barracuda.

At first I thought I’d go with Sid,”

And now I wish did,

But when I named him I was living in the hood-a.

Cletus The Storm Trooper’s Country Song

I went to the range

To learn how to shoot.

I had me a gun

For to have me a hoot.

I pulled me a trigger

And I used my head

And thanks to my prudence 

No targets ended up dead!

JurASSic Park?

I’ve debated for a while

The moral consequences

Of selling my body for money.

But when I undress

I find to my distress

That people just think it is funny.

So I hired somebody

Who looks a bit like me

To portray me in screenwritten sex.

He’s an older man

With a history in movies

Named Tyrannosaurus Rexxx.

A Commoner Poem

If I were cast in Game of Thrones

I think I’d be a peasant

‘Cause I’m a lousy actor

And my death would be more pleasant.

I Stole These Jokes And Made Them Rhyme… You’re Welcome

A Mexican magician

Was the epitome of grace.

He would count “uno, dos,”

Then disappear without a tres.

He did this trick in Europe.

When he reappeared he said “mama mia!”

Then he asked “can you see me now?”

And the crowd said: “Yes, oui, si, ja.”

What We Really Mean

Happy birthday Facebook friend!

This past year your life didn’t end.

You didn’t factor much into my life.

We’re only friends ’cause of my wife.

Why Not “Sally?”

Everyone compares me to Godzilla,

Which is weird because she’s ugly and I’m cute.

She’s a monster, but I’m an ordinary teenager.

Guess that’s what happens when your name is “Satanewt.”

This Weeks Hot Fantasy Football Tip Brought To You Hurricane Irma

So I hear there’s a hurricane

Headed for Florida.

Under most circumstances

That’s a thing I’d abhor-ida

But it’s postponed the game

‘Tween the Dolphins and Rays

So my fantasy matchup is easier

Which deserves a few “yays.”

Dreams and Wheel-ality

Sometimes I feel

Like part of a wheel,

Like one of the spokes so to speak.

That’s how you know’m a

Guy in a coma

And I haven’t woken for weeks.
