My Comparison Poem Which

My Comparison Poem Which
(Really has become beyond compare.)

When to they subject I was more nearer
What I was seeing became more clearer
And if a telescope were fixed to my eye
Object became bigger as it did magnify.

Outside darker undoubtedly it will be
Subject searched for was difficult to see
If consistent things became to my eyes
That is when things would optimize.

Catcher caught third strike with no doubt
That is when umpire shouted YOU'RE OUT
At times, food was over-cooked and hot
Food started to burn my tongue a lot.

My poems were totally, really rotten
Were never read and forever forgotten
And after they drove President insane
In White House no longer wanted to remain.

Poor child was not properly potty trained
By urine on clothes they became stained
And when smoking too much you did try
Body was damaged and were bound to die.

How are those for some incredulous comparisons?
