Disney and the Unintended Consequences of Fantasy

When I was a younger child

I couldn’t help but feel

That, in my life, dalmatians

Would be a significantly bigger deal.

This Poem Has An Unsatisfying Finish, Just Like GoFundMe

Today we gather to commemorate

A platform that we grew to hate,

Whose motto is “Give us a buck

“And we’ll distribute it to whoever the”

‘Cause Chicks Love Poetry

When my friends ask me

“Why are you still single?”

I tell them my hobby

Is sitting, staring at my phone, trying to think of a satisfying rhyme for single

So I can finish my poem

That I write on my blog-ingle.

Neverland Envy

It’s fun listening to kids complain:

“I don’t want to make my bed!

“I don’t want to eat dinner!

“No! I only like red!”

It’s fun to see them cry about

Their multitude of misery

Because I can imagine how great

It would feel if that were me!

Model U.N.

Somebody somewhere decided one day

That most of the countries on earth

Should send representatives to talk about

Things that have slim to no worth.

Then somebody somewhere looked at that group

And said, “Hey all my scholastic friends,

“What if we did that make-believe peace thing

“But for us it will just be pretend?”

Chatting With The “Mirror Selfie” Girls…

Sometimes I look in the mirror

And see myself staring at me,

And when I clean the glass it gets clearer

And I know it’s my face that I see

And I look at myself and think “Wow!

“That’s expected, and not very shocking!”

And that, my dear lady, is what I perceive

And thus space out when you start talking.

This Is A Lazy Poem Unless You Work At A Stuffed Animal Factory

Today I was busy

And did lots of stuff

So I went back home

And pumped out this fluff.

Sophie’s Choice

Sophie was an average girl

With fairly average likes;

Fond of wine and dogs and soap

And mental health and hikes.

One day she was kidnapped

By a disembodied voice

Who told her she would surely die

Unless she made the choice:

Would she rather kiss someone

Who smelled liked a catcher’s mitt

That had been soaked in sour milk

And armadillo spit

While treading water in a pool

Of acid, hot as Hades

And listening to Kenny G

Play highlights of the eighties

While the Devil lit a match

And burned off all her hair…

Or, when asked where she’d like to eat

To not say “I don’t care.”

Your Daily Self-Esteem Boost

You haven’t hit much;

Your life is all misses

But you can still write a poem

That’s better than this is.

Your Vocabulary Word Of The Day Is…

Sometimes it can be tough

To deal with all of your stuff,

And so the path that seems easiest

Is to be an eccedentesiast.
