The One That Got Away

She was a lovely Venomoth

With 409 CP.

Although I gave her many Razz

She would not stay with me.

She ripped off all my Pokeballs

And left me pale with pallor.

I hope that she finds happiness

With someone from team Valor.

That Second Line’s Syllable Dilemna Though…

It’s 8:53.

I’m too tired to write good poems.

Damn, I’m getting old.

Based On A True Story

Sometimes I get tired of writing crap

So I write something lovely instead.

Tonight is not one of those times.

Now I’m done and I’m going to bed.

My Excuse, Courtesy of Stupidheads

My email got hacked today.

I don’t know who did it.

When I found out it happened

I sort of lost my… Ya know.

I’m going to change my password now

But if you see a post

That’s a poem you disapprove of,

It wasn’t me. It was a ghost.

Real Life With Travis T.

I watched a football game today,

Played a concert with my friends,

And changed the oil in my truck,

And with that this poem ends.

The Cat In The Lap

‘Twas a quiet day in the house

And a good day to be a mouse

For as the sly poet tried to come up with crap

The cat on the floor flew onto his lap.

“Hello there kitty,” the poet did shout

As the cat proceeded to let its hair all fall out.

The poet spoke more and stroked it’s blonde fur,

And the cat licked itself and mumbled a purr.

Then the poet’s appointment, confirmed as it was,

Took precedence over the self-licking fuzz. 

And so he departed, and the cat in the lap

Lay down in his sheddings for his apathy nap.

Canada

I had to walk ten city blocks

To find Café Joie.

That’s ten times the length in Washington

To find some plain coffee.

I paid a polite barista

With a blue, 20-loony bill.

The traffic lights are flashing green,

And I can buy a prescription pill.

I can calculate distances

By moving a decimal place,

And I can drive 100

Without being in a race.

It’s a different place than the USA.

Yes, Canada’s where I’ve been.

Now I publish this, just hoping

The “yanks” will let me come back in.

Taking Comfort Where You Can

On a day like today

You’re looking for a sign

That despite the past disasters

Everything will be fine.

Well as I sat, considering

My poem for today

I saw a candy cane, uneaten.

That makes me think I’ll be okay.

Identity Crisis

I woke up at 5:00.

Went for a two mile run.

What is wrong with me?

My Mind: Behind the Scenes

I have to go to the bathroom,
But I don’t want to leave my bed,
And so I will do neither
And write this poem instead.
