My Rhyming's Inane

Ho-hum, another poem Need a rhyme -- Carpe diem Some ask why...tra-la-la Ordered pizza cooked by Lisa I was a poet, but then I blew it Cursed my editor; it didn't matter 'Cos now I'm a rich, son-of-a-beach I got me a gig in the major leagues I heard a rumor that life's a bummer And that marathoners have no sense of humor My ox, a horse gored; I was super-scared But I turned the horse into horse-radish sauce Non-sequiturs? -- Who the hell cares? Smokey the Bear put out a fire here... My rhyming's inane, you've doubtless opined This objective in mind, to reach readers unseen

You've almost reached me unseen, Wolf. All I need is a bear 4 smokey. I'd ask you for sending me some, but, I'm affraid, the custom won't let such bears through) Yes, this is Russia, son-of-the-teacher. We smoke bears.

All I can remember is that Americans found it hard to 'bear' Nikita Kruschev, Anatoly Dobrynin, Kosygin, Brezhnev, et al. LOL. Russia's the 'Bear.' The Republicans are the 'Elephant.' The Democrats are the 'Donkey.' … Phooey - Chop-suey. :) gw
