*Sniff*

If, instead of using eugenics

To get a particular color of eye,

They bred for noses that never get stuffy

We’d think better of small-mustache guy.

The Middle Child (68)

I remember how my sister,

69, was always “nice”.

Then my brother, 67,

Became a meme. It happened twice!

Yet here I am, poor 68,

Unrecognized ‘til now.

I am still important though,

And let me tell you how:

I’m the atomic number for Erbium

And the number of squares in Chutes and Ladders;

Emperor Nero died in year 68

So Julio-Claudians think that matters;

I’m a trope for a generic hotel room number

And the latitude of midnight sun;

L.C. Greenwood of the Steelers

Wore my number. Super fun!

I’m two-times-two times seventeen

And a Californian highway

And still despite these awesome facts

I never get things my way…

For now I’ll stay anonymous

As seems to be my fate

But watch for me on YouTube

In 2028.

Mon Dieu!

The English marched on Agincourt

With hoards of longbowmen

To fight the army of the French.

They were terribly surprised when

They loosed a thousand arrows

And those chic Parisian dorks

Brought out the champagne bottles

And fired back with corks.

A Real Man’s Christmas Wishlist

Triumph over evil

Victory in battle

A wife and seven children

Some land to herd my cattle

A fancy leather cowboy hat

A closet full of guns

A quiet place to rest my head

And lots of silly puns.

If You’re Not Reading This, I’m No Longer Stuck On A Random Wednesday

Horror movies are just Groundhog Day

But it’s Halloween instead.

Now with that insight passed on

I’m going to go to bed.

Careful What You Wish For

If wishes were horses

What would you do?

Probably get trampled

But never run out of glue.

I May Not Have Money, But I Have A Weird Imagination

I wish I had a yttrium-plated snow globe.

A yttrium-plated globe would make me smile

Because I’d have something no billionaire has

At least for a brief and satisfying while.

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.

When School Gives You Hope

Sunday evening ends.

Glitch in time. It’s Saturday.

Yay, quantum physics!
