Portrait of the Fuehrer as a Young Man

“Look, a bird!”
The banker said
As he pointed high
Above my head.

There was no bird;
It was a ruse.
That’s probably why
I hate the Jews.

Fluffy, White

Have you ever looked up at a cloud
And spoken of its looks aloud?
“That one looks like Canada.”
“I thought it looked like a pelican. Huh.”

It’s a childish game, I guarantee
But play it once to help you see
That a childish game just once a day
Makes fluffy and white what once was gray.

The Path Less Trav’l’d

Perhaps people purposefully
Alienate alliteration,
Prob’ly ’cause they tried it once before.

Then they found abbreviation
Which is sup’r fun and simpl’
And they switch’d allegiances forev’r mor’.

The Day I Was Smote

I go to church
Once every year
Just to make sure
Of Hell I’m clear.

As I was sitting
On the pew
I suffered pain
And yelled “ow-oo!”

Good sir, you have a hymnia,
A very painful affliction.
It’s very like a hernia
But with better tone and diction.

Who Plays My Robot?

If someone made a robot
That represented me
I wonder who would play it
In my film biography.

I’m leaning towards C-3PO
For the golden-boy appeal,
But It’d probably be a roomba
‘Cause that’s a cheaper deal.

I guess we’ll have our answer
Come 2069,
And as long as I’m not Gort
I’m sure it will be fine.

Flightless Bird Seeking Same

A young ostrich nun
Walked into a bar
And met a young emu
With two dozen eggs.
She had been looking
For young souls to teach,
And he for a chick with long legs.

So she squawked and he flirted
And showed her his cartons
And she buried her habited
Head in the sand.
And both of them left,
Neither one satisfied.
Neither one left a tip for the band.

The very next day
The ostrich logged in
To FlightlessBirdsMingle.com
Where she sought others
With broods to be won.
The emu just hired a madame.

Another 6:00 P.M Poem

I have posted poems
271 days straight,
So you’d think by now I’d have one
Before the clock hits 8:00.

Well here it is, as promised
Though it clearly lacks a point.
By night fall my creative brain
And rhyming brains are spent.

A Poignant Thought

If we ever know world peace
We’d have all the luck,
But all of the to-be-released
“Call of Duty” games would suck.

A Poet Has Needs

I’m the guy who has a lot;
The guy who wants for nothing
Except a rhyme for a poor setup.
Now look at me. I’m bluthing!

If you say “I’d save it,” you’re lying.

If I had a million bucks

I might buy a million ducks

Who would have a million ducklings

And I could watch them grow.

 

If I had a million bucks

I’d load them in a million trucks

And bring them around the country

To find their perfect doe.

 

If I had a million bucks

I’d wear a pair of diamond chucks

And a platinum pillow

For when I need to snore.

 

If I had a million bucks

In cash or deer or even ducks

I wouldn’t spend it prudently.

Perhaps that’s why I’m poor.
