Why Won’t He Wife Me?

Everybody tells me that he’s poison

And is blood is made of boiling gasoline.

He’s never loved anybody more than himself

And he’s a barrel-chested killing machine.

He eats a baby bunny for his breakfast.

He’s got Bambi’s mommy mounted on the wall.

He’s a runner and a gunner and a scoundrel

And like OMG, I hope he’s six feet tall!

This Is One Instance Where A Live Stream Would Be Helpful

Can I write a poem

In exactly ten hours?

I could were I not so aloof.

See, it would be brilliant

But I’m insufficiently resilient

To answer your query: “Where’s the proof?”

Your Tax Dollars At Work #7,419

Before every movie you watch

There’s an FBI warning and on it

Is a message that vows either prison or fines

If you copy the movie and pawn it.

Meanwhile, in 38 states

Shoplifting a movie is legal.

I think it’s time the the FBI bird

Was replaced by a drunk cross-eyed seagull.

Classical Music

You’re here to see a concert

And the first piece we will play

Is the thanking of the sponsors,

For although you had to pay

A decent sum of money

To come see our group perform

Without our corporate overlords

We’d not be able to form.

Thank you to the money guys

Who like this older stuff.

Now please prepare to give a hand

For another half an hour of fluff…

I Almost Published This Without A Title (And In A Way, I Still Did?)

I want to skip my poem today.

The thought went through my head

And yet I wrote a poem…

Maybe I’ll skip leg day instead!

Rainy Parking Lot

Little drops of ocean sky

Fall upon my Honda’s hood.

I am warm and dry inside,

Content and sleepy. Life is good.

The raindrops play their glassy drum;

None of them would e’er predict

The mayhem that my wiper blades

Will, on their zen, so soon inflict.

Woe Is Me (Millennial Edition)

“I need to write a poem”

Isa thing I say many a night.

That’s usually followed by a poem like this.

Thus is the artist’s plight.

And a fair dose of “yay”.

Selected poems on love.

When You’re Under Orders To Neglect Your Duty

When your nation makes it illegal

To enforce our most basic of laws

It signals that our compliance

Must end, or at least go on pause.
