Today I drove home on a road full of cracks
Past a tent city filled with the needy
To hear how the state gave 85 billion
To terrorists, but somehow I’m greedy?

Excuses, Excuses (Published August 20th Wink wink yay time zones)
Tonight I went to Alaska
In my imagination
For a very lively
Nine-minute vacation.
The reason that I took
Was to say that it’s alright
And my daily streak’s unbroken
Thanks to an imaginary flight.

And folks said “Yay” and “Wow.”
Then someone said “Disease exists”
And folks said “Quit rolling now.”

Today I ordered Sierra Mist and a fork
For lunch at a drive-through.

So you’ll have to settle for yesterday’s rhyme

With sage, rosemary, and parsley
But alas, he didn’t take time enough.

I wonder if goats
Ever look at ghosts
And think
“If not for bad spelling
“That could have been us…”

No Problem Officer… I Handled It
There once was a spider in my room
That met a most violent doom.
Other spiders said “Yahoo!
“Let’s all go there too!”
And that’s why my shotgun went boom.

“Write A Poem With Silver And Orange… You Can’t”
All that is gold does not glitter;
All that is green does not grow;
But all that is orange and all that is silver
Will not have an easy rhyme though.
