Get It… Terrific?

I’ve heard people say leftists are happy

With Trump’s economics. A specific

Comment I heard is that they are feeling

A really strong feeling of tariff-ick.

The Marital Bed

There once was a bed with a pillow

Then a wife did enter the room

And thus my one-pillow system

Began to sense its doom.

First came two big long pillows

That stretched across the bed

And did everything a pillow should

Except help rest your head.

Then came two fluffy square ones

That aren’t the same color or size

Because apparently symmetry

Is not good for a female’s eyes.

Then came that little round novelty

With a pic of my mother-in-law

And now I don’t sleep with a pillow at all,

Put my head on mattress all raw.

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.

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.

Not To Mention Big Feet…

Some people believe in fantasy creatures

Like mermaids and centaurs and such.

Most people come to conclude those beliefs

Are, politely, “a little bit much.”

Some people believe in fantasy creatures

But I think we should give them a pass;

Sure, I’ve never known a fish-tailed woman

But I’ve known plenty with a horse’s ass.

Modern Literature

Irritating, aggravating,

Enervating, asinine,

Childish, boorish, makes-me-snore-ish,

Meaningless but mostly fine,

Stupid, senseless, mauve, relentless,

Bleaker than “Old Yeller”,

And somehow amidst these reviews

A New York Times Bestseller…

Je ne peux pas me marier parce qu’il y a un dinosaure dans l’église

Duolingo says I’m wrong

When I type “La buste” instead of “Le buste”

But it also told me it couldn’t get married because there was a dinosaur in the church

So I’m not really sure who to trust.

What Effect Was That Again?

With all the hurricanes and fires

And political unrest

I think it’s time we kill the butterflies.

Take heart. It’s for the best!

Look At The Bright Side… Or Don’t… Do Whatever You Want

I asked my wife for a random word

To inspire my poem tonight.

Here eyes went wide, her gaze went blank,

And she went towards the light.

Now alone and uninspired

I type this tepid verse

But at least it’s quiet in the house

So I guess it could be worse.

The Worst Place That Everyone Wants To Be?

Anerica is an evil place

Led by terrible rapists and thieves

And yet people say it violates their rights

If anyone asks them to leave?
