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…

You’re Probably Just Racist

Why do people always think

That I’m a creepy guy

Just ’cause I eat other humans?

Oh why, oh why, oh why?

Why can’t they come to love me

As a human, not a specter?

Heck, they made a TV show

All about Hannibal Lecter!

Why can I not find true love?

Why are all hearts filled with doubt?

I thought that lots of people

Liked to be romantically eaten out!

I’m entirely worthy of your trust

From my toes to my chin’s cleft!

And don’t mind the BBQ sauce shower…

It’s just something the old owners left.

Martyrdumb: Saint Drogo’s Story?

Somewhere someone is dying,

Nobly becoming a martyr.

Somewhere someone is getting

Less than what for they did barter.

Somewhere someone deemed saintworthy

As “Patron of Muffin Tops” is anointed.

But here I’m alive and unrecognized

And somehow I’m not disappointed.

My Ex, Why Z?

She’s a glass doll made of plastic,

A silent symphony,

A baby butterfly

But not a caterpillar, see. 

She’s the sense of satisfaction

Men don’t get from buying shoes.

She’s a pomegranate seed,

But just the part without the juice.

She’s nonfat butter ice cream.

She’s that feeling of “just woke up.”

She’s everything and nothing

Which is probably why we broke up.

I Like The Tender Types

I flipped a coin. It landed heads.

I flipped again. It landed tails.

One or the other every time-

It is a trick that never fails.

I asked eight girls “wanna do it?”

Four of the girls thought it was funny

The others got a guy to dent my skull.

This is why people are attracted to money.

Why I’m Waiting To Write That Essay

Mighty is the sword

And mighty is the pen:

If both of these are true

It’s safe to conclude then

The mightiest tool of all

Is the one and only Swordpen.

It writes with the blood

Of those it slays.

It’s Swordpenned many novels

And poems and plays.

It’s the only writing implement

With a crossguard I know.

It’s good with the ladies.

It’s middle name is “Bro.”

I wish I had a Swordpen.

It would be a cool thing to own.

Alas, the only swordpen

Is stuck in a Pencilstone.
