Best Couch Poems

The cute figurine I am looking at now
is one of a couple at home on a couch.

The guy, at the end of the couch, comfortably
relaxes, a pillow upon his left knee.

With her head on the pillow there at his knee,
his gal reclines sideways while they...

Just a little bit rustic, torn up and old

 bet you can imagine the stories I've told

come take you a seat

You're in for a treat

I'm still soft and comfy, but a little bit bold...

Dear Lordy, what have you done
this loony spouse given me…
he rants and TV- clicks all night
much like a  freakish banshee!

Obsessed with horror movies
remote  control is life's drug:
This model needs rebooting,
It's time for urgent de-bug.

Couch Potato

You are sitting on my couch, now. 
You are watching TV with my kid. 
Yes, she is old enough to sit there. 
She is technically, All Grown Up!
That is not the issue. 

Be careful, 
You are ever being…
watched. 

For what? 

The way you are;
What...

I pissed my dog off today
He wouldn't listen to what I had to say
He didn't have to be such a grouch
I just wanted him off my couch

Why is he so mad, I didn't even holler 
I just pulled on his collar
He was being such a...

Sitting on the sofa
Munching on some chips
Not a care in the world
Of calories on the hips.

Slouched down on the cushion
The tv glued to his face
You ask him a question
But he's out in outer space.

You call him to the table
He won't leave his favorite chair
The sports...

How frantic my antics when I'm in a panic-
my thoughts alone could sink the Titanic!
Hassled, frazzled-  razz-madazzled
when I feel so well and Manic!

Taken for granted, a Life enchanted,
and gifts of Art, by God implanted.
Confuses the Muses with makeshift excuses-
my trembling Mind, thus reprimanded!

For sloth,...

A beautiful couch, dusted entirely; five gentle hearts insist. Just kids, learning, moving, now 
overturning pillows-- quite riot, so teriffic--undaunting: Victory will expand young's zodiac....

I AM A COUCH POTATO
By Roy Merritt

I am a couch potato, but not russet, red or white
I’m the kind of potato that sits up late at night
And I watch the TV shows the shows I really dig
And sit there in my chair and eat just...

May I please say before we start
that I am PERFECT for this part?
It's in my SOUL.

You might as well go lock the door,
cuz right here's what you're looking for.
I AM this role!

But why take chances? Just in case,
I've put plans B and C in place.
(So...

I wanna wake up and be blinded be your grin 
You spent all your time in my tent 
We even ride behind tint just to hide from your friends 
But I'm not ashamed of you 
I'm focused on changing you 
Unchaining you until your heart...

The Potato expanded to fit the Couch,
Bathing in the light of the God of Radiation,
A many hued attack on whatever senses remained.

Froth overflowing from his beer and his brain
Machinegun-like channels blasting and caressing
He sank back, understanding but not grasping
At all the dangers, all the time...

Ladies marry the man of their dreams in a church
Eventually... she end up married to a couch that burps
Happens the world over
From Brisbane to Dover
Could've been an axe murderer and things would've been worse...

I visited his grave, but the grave was gone!
What? I know spirits travel but this just seems wrong.
There's a big hole where the grave used to be.
I think someone is playing a big prank on me.

On second thought, this is just what he would do
to...
