Road Trip

I’m a hundred miles from home

And I’m all topped off on gas.

I’ve got four all-weather tires

To propel me past the pass.

I’ve got all my tunes on CD-rom

And 12 donuts ready to bite.

Full of soul and thought

And edited the verbiage

And started the next line.

Inspiration comes and goes

And that, my friends, is fine.

With Trump’s economics. A specific

Let Freedom Ring!

Imagine a world where all is at peace,

A world without hunger or toil,

And ponder how easy a thing it would be

To go bomb them and take all their oil.

Were squabbling comedically when

The audience got bored

So they pulled out a seord

And everyone dies in the end.

P. Diddy? More Like R. Chaic! (Gregorian Ba Dum Tss)

I suspect between 476-1450 AD

The pedophiles cried and raged

Because even the youngest of children

Were all still middle aged.

Felines Don’t Count Syllables

Tonight I’m a cat.

Why don’t you write me a poem?

Also, feed me peasant.

The 30-Second Poetry Special

A poet once went on a break

Which turned out to be a mistake

‘Cause he hurried to finish

His limerick, diminish

Ing his perfect lyrical break.

Really? No Takers?

If you’re not in a haste

To reduce government waste

I invite you to pay

Extra taxes today
