Best Bah Poems
Love? Bah!All these insipid poems of Love
Love Lost….
Love Found….
What is this emotion that makes UP? Down?
All this frantic fretting
nail biting and bed-wetting.
What is this profound poetic notion?
What is the source of this commotion??
All these romantic, rabid, ramblings, of Love
Love Lost..
Love Found…
What is this emotion that makes...

Bah HumbugBah! Humbug! It’s that time of year;
I can’t understand the reason
why everyone is so full of cheer
just because it’s the Christmas season.
The traffic on the street is horrendous,
like a snail, moving at a slow crawl;
the shopping crowds tremendous,
no parking spaces at the mall.
The weather...

Male Stripper BahThey said it was time to go on.
The audience claps had begun.
I strolled on the stage
in my thong that was beige.
The spotlight now on me was thrown.
I started to twist and to turn.
My face was so red it did...

Rah Rah Rah Sis Boom BahRah! Rah! Rah! and a Sis Boom Bah!
Everyone stand up and cheer
A more upbeat poem you'll never find
Pay attention and listen here!
Funny how moods go up and down
Like a proverbial yo-yo
Maintaining a balance is a full time job
Life's like a bucking bronco
Survival of the fittest...

Bah, HumbugAh, the glorious damned winter
and the inviting
gray chill in the air.
I meander
ever
so
slowly
past lawns
strewn
with a cluttered array
of pagan snow zombies -
staring blankly,
as I obliterate pint-sized
snow angels
failing to don halos
that could have easily been
brush stroked with
da Vinci's golden teardrops.
(Impoverished...

Bah HumbugA Grinch in a hamlet of Whovilles
Stole credit cards, ringing up big bills
Without checking price tags
He murmured, “Bah, Scumbags”
For this is how grinches get their thrills!

Self Driving Cars - BahThe car must become a freethinker
Case someone it might greatly injure
It clearly must steer
And brake and change gear
And give other bad drivers the finger...

Artificial Intelligence - BahAI is worthy - but is it a pity?
Nothing's been done on synthetic stupidity
Smart may be good, but dumb gullibility
Will grow without limit and tend to infinity
Clever and cunning is not very hard
But it takes a brainbox to program a dullard
So why not SS instead...

Bah-HumbugAh yes, the joys of Christmas
Excuse me if, I seem a little listless
Just thinking about, all of the work
Turns my smile into a smirk
Carrying boxes, moving things around
That fake tree weighs a hundred pounds
Untangling lights, that came unwound
The headache caused is quite profound
Assemble the tree....

Hoo-Ya, Hoo-Ya, Ziss Boom BahHoo-ya, hoo-ya, ziss boom bah!
My doctor has given me a thumbs up
I'm good to go for another year
Let's see, how should I celebrate?
Perhaps I'll try going a day without my walker
Just kidding! I don't use a walker
Hoo-ya, hoo-ya, ziss boom bah!
Maybe I'll try dressing myself...

The Bah Humbug RockMy father was beloved by all of us
But as the years passed, a bit of a scrooge
He soon became weary of all the fuss…
As children he would decorate a tree
And sing along with us in the church choir
Watch all of us open our gifts with...

Bah! Humbuggery!Jingle jangle, jingle jangle, jingle all the way!
Merchants gleefully fill their tills sellin' stuff for Christmas Day!
I can barely hear the joyful Yuletide carols that I hold so dear,
For the ka-ching, ka-ching of lucre that keeps ringin' in my ear!
My spouse scurries about spendin' like...

Grand Poo-Bah
She struts out of the golden elevator
like the Grand Marshall of Macy’s Thanksgiving parade
Crystal high-heels rhythmically clicking
on the gleaming marble floor
Pompadour bouffant hair
that’s styled so platinum electric
Purple Persian silk dress
accentuated by a
diamond studded heart-shaped necklace
Sashay walking with such sexy flair ...
her haughty, ice-chiseled chin held...
