Cup of Insane

Jerry
George
Kramer
Elaine

They're my favorite show about nothing;
my jolt of funny,
my cup of insane
They're my telly four friends,
who are the nuttiest
A distinct comedic blend
of vaudeville vamped sluttiness

I love 'em to death,
they make me laugh so hard
Insane of the hare brain
is their ensemble calling card

Jerry Seinfeld:
the ringleader, the funny man
George Constanza:
best friend with the simple plan
Kramer Cosmos:
weird and wacky, dresses oh so tacky
Elaine Benes:
best girl ever in the mold of Dennis the Menace

Jerry and George,
Kramer and Elaine

Everything you wanted to know about nothing ...
blank pictures in a cranial frame
Then come plunk your money down,
and taste this cup of cappuccino insane

The four stars are truly iconic,
but they got memorable supporting characters too:

David Puddy and Mr. Peterman,
George's parents, Frank and Estelle
Jerry's parents,  Morty and Helen,
Lloyd Braun and Jackie Chiles 
are an odd assortment of characters as well

If you've never seen it,
check out the show
Here's a few of my favorite episodes:

The Little Kicks
The Apology
The Puffy Shirt
The Serenity

Now funny is always fresh,
and funny is always good
Here's a few more episodes,
now that you're laughing like I knew you would

The Foundation
The Library
The Strong Box
The Soup Nazi

Should you let this zany crew
become a part of your must-see view
Have a blast, 
have a ball
Just be prepared
to be left in stitches and all

Jerry
George
Kramer
Elaine

They're my favorite show about nothing,
my favorite cup of insane

Paloma P Date: 11/3/2016 1:46:00 PM You're really good at these, I'll take two cups. I love the Soup Nazi! :) Login to Reply Freddie Robinson Jr. Date: 11/3/2016 6:24:00 PM Ty Paloma. I do kinda like doing the show biz chitterlin' circuit. Movies, tv shows and music. I always have some music as a backdrop to the poem in my head. So it takes on a rhythm and life of its own. That is the best way I can explain it, Paloma. Ty for the love. Much love to you. RW

White Wolf Date: 11/1/2016 7:04:00 PM Haha, the puffy shirt and the soup nazi are my favourites... Love the show too. This poem is proof that you can write about anything RW. Well done my friend. Login to Reply Freddie Robinson Jr. Date: 11/1/2016 8:24:00 PM Ty dear Rick for the gracious comment. I love that show! This is my tribute to them. Maybe I can find a way to get Mr. Seinfeld to get hold of this poem, then hit him up for free tickets every time he comes to Detroit. What do ya think? Love you, mate. RW
