Guess What I Did This Afternoon!

When arguing online you do

Your foe may fail to convince you,

May reject logic, spew rhetoric,

And end up looking pathetic,

May cite false studies, make up a fact,

Surrender any façade of tact,

May display no virtue and every sin,

But alas, my friend, you still won’t win.

Advice Is Appreciated

Don’t want to marry just some girl.

I’m looking for a wholesome girl.

A girl whose lack of cleavage

Warms my big platonic heart.

A girl who thinks that working’s

Not synonymous with twerking.

A girl who skips the bar

Because she wants to look at art.

I want to find a happy lass

Who doesn’t want to shake her ass,

Who goes to church on Sundays

And buys ice cream from a truck,

Who’s pure and chaste and sweet

And, instead of “lit,” says “neat.”

But I also want Beyonce,

So I’m feeling kinda stuck…

A New Rainbow Awakens

I’m feeling kinda down

Like a king without a crown.

I’m cowardly, as yellow as they come.

I’ve read like half a million books

By a bunch of chefs and cooks

But about sustainability I’m still dumb.

I thought maybe I’d fit in

If I changed my skin

But this spray-tan makes me look like that guy on the news.

You put it all together

In the rain or sunny weather…

I’ve got the well-read, not-green, yellow, orangey-white guy blues.

The Sentiment Is True Of Most Art, Actually

Poetry

Is like a knee;

It certainly has it’s place

But we’ll agree

Whether poem or knee

It’s better off not in your face.

Reel Me In Baby

When I’m with you

The sun shines brighter,

The water’s warmer,

My body’s lighter.

When I’m with you

I am flavorful, raw.

I just wish you’d get rid of

This hook in my jaw!

Why Poems Make Bad Horror Movie Adaptations

Imagine a street,

Dark and quiet.

Something moves

But you can’t quite spy it…

Dissonant soundtrack

Fades to naught

And from the dark…

GIANT SATANIC CLOWN ROBOT!!! 

Yeah… jump scare loses something…

*Snaps Fingers* Quit Ignoring Me!

Some days you’re “E” as in Excellent,

Some days you’re “A” as in Awesome,

Some days we’re together, just “U” and “I,”

But this morning I’m “O” for Opossum.

Maybe That Someone Spoke Truthfully After All

Someone called me “Nincompoop”

Which didn’t seem fair to me.

Alas, that someone only laughed

When I called him “Nincompee.”

My Worst Pun Ever… Turn Your Sound Up

If you’re brazen as a basilisk,

Audacious as a drake,

Cocky as a colossus,

Saucy as a snake,

If a wyvern wouldn’t scare you

And a wyrm won’t give you palsy

Then my compliments to you dear friend

‘Cause you are this.

Seeing Me For Me

To have a snazzy nickname

Like Ultra, Swabs, or Fish:

That was my desire,

My one and only wish

‘Til today I walked down broadway

And someone yelled “hey, herpes guy!”

Somehow I’m not happy

Though my wish is satisfied…
