Seriously Seattle?

There once was a Seattle bird team

Who fought a sports battle upstream.

Alas, the sheep rallied

While the birds dilly-dallied

And now they’re an NFL meme.

Now THAT Is A Great Value

This ten minute break

Isn’t long enough to write

More than a Haiku.

But I’m not an ass!

I’ll reward you with not one

Haiku, but with two!

Take That, Nukes!

One upside of weak, nerdy young people

Is that they’ll probably invent Mjolnir

But because they’re so weak, they can’t lift it

And thus we have nothing to fear.

It’s Not About Doing It Right… It’s About Adapting!

There once was a criminal crew

Who knew precisely what to do.

They went on a heist

And their planning sufficed

And the film got an awful review.

What, You Expected A Point?

If a “house plant” is a thing

A “home tree” should be too,

As should a “duplex flower”

And “skyscraper bamboo.”

But perhaps my favorite combo

(The others are still great though)

Is either “Airbnb broccoli”

Or else “hovel tomato”.

On “Inciting Incidents”(Bonus Points If It Involves A Historical Artifact)

It doesn’t require much talent to be famous.

There really is near nothing to it

As long as you don’t care what they name us

And don’t care if you need to live through it.

Gotta Bring Back The Traditions!

A month has past since wedded bliss

And yet again it comes to this:

It’s long past my correct bed time

So I give you a four line poem and a rhyme.

An Odd Relationship

Wicked kitty cat…

You bite me and make me bleed!

Wanna snuggle now?

When Your Wife Meets The Minotaur And Has To Give Birth In An Echoey Cave

Mary had a little lamb

Little lamb

Little lamb…

Mary had a little lamb

And the obstetrician fainted

Fainted

Fainted…

On Nursing And Duty

Roses are red

My fiancée is achey

So I have an excuse

If this poem seems flakey.
