The Day God Made Africa?

And on the twenty-second day

God said “Let 99 men moisten the grass

“And the hundredth man you shall eschew”.

Even then it was widely known

That one hundred men or more

Could never dew.

Batman

There once was a comic detective

Who had a unique bat perspective.

He had gadgets and jokes

‘Til the Hollywood folks

Said “Do more, but the fun is defective.”

I’m Too Old For Lumps Or Finger Painting, But Maybe She’ll Hang This On Her Fridge Instead?

Today is my mother’s birthday.

Her birth did occur on this date.

In honor of her I caused this poem to occur

And published it moderately late.

Some heroes wear capes;

Some villains wear capes too;

This is effectively the same poem as

“Roses are red, violets are blue.”

I found a fun video game

That simulates many ways to die.

The designers overlooked the simple fact

That survival means I’d have to try.

Double-O One Through Six

There was a fantabulous spy

Who was put in a death trap to die.

His life then did cease

And the world knew no peace.

If you’ve never heard of him, that’s why.

How To Be Popular

If I had breath like Godzilla

And my sneeze were a nuclear blast

I still wouldn’t like playing kickball

But at least I’d get picked before last.

“Noble”

There once was a noble chihuahua

Whose owner was trapped in the shower.

He flew like an ace

To bite her on the face

Then barked nonstop for 24 hours.

DC Smoothies: Now Made With 100% Sustainably Harvested Peasant Tears

It is a truth we find self-evident

That the people who make the laws

Are the type to drink turtle smoothies

With biodegradable straws.
