Set for wake up tomorrow

Thus, it’s haiku night!

Flying tuna can

Crammed with average human beings.

Twice delayed so far.

AARP ASMR

If you use YouTube

To watch people building things

Just retire now.

Read That Last Word With Four Syllables To Make Me Seem Smarter

When you are a poetic bard

Having a social life is hard

Because you may be out at night

But need to do a daily write.

Hypothetical as this may sound

This is where I, this night, am found.

When you read other brief poems by me

Know that I’m healthy socially.

Preamble to a Night on the Couch

I’m not lying. I’m just saying

That you appear as if you’re weighing

More than your real weight suggests…

Ok, you do look fat in that dress.

Another Inconvenient Truth

If you’re struggling in your career

Give Hollywood a call

Because there’s no script for a 67 movie yet

And they’ll take anything at all.

Book Review: A Dark And Horny Knight

It’s about this guy who’s a demon

With virile and plentiful… oh lord.

I tried dear, I swear

But I really don’t dare

To review the books that have you screamin’.

Adventures in Undead Education

Little Dracula was a fool.

Little Dracula didn’t go to school.

His one weakness he could not surmount:

Little Dracula could not count.

K-5 Education

If you could just close your mouths

And let your feet be still

Your mind would find a sense of peace

And overflow with skill.

If you could keep your eyes on me

And your hands to yourself

You’d find your time so much more free

And your talent upper shelf.

If you could focus for a blink

And persevere a while

You’d all be smarter than you think

And make a teacher smile.

And yet as you deny these things

I’m please to end a day

When you can do a two-plus-two

And know that biting’s not ok.
