Best Fired Poems

She had one job, just one job.
No bugs in the house, ditto with mouse.
But there it goes across the floor,
eight legs scrambling towards the door.

The cat is snoring, obviously tired.
She had one job, so now she's fired.

Damn spider is hiding, who knows where.
Cat is sleeping,...

SHOW TIME - Mr. MUELLER, YOU'RE FIRED
Come life and death of it you blessed rhapsody
you've played for long enough and now it's time to go
there's not a better time than now to let it be
insanity's its own and best reward you know

deep in the night...

God never existed don't you
know?
Only fools think it so!
We who write on parchment really 
think...
We, are the gods and goddesses
who created it all, with polls of
glistening ebony, primordial ink!

Oh,how we weep over man's idiotic 
actions.
We squirm like a paramecium
and have visceral reactions.
Some gods we are,...

IN THE FIRED FURNACE OF CALI
     (APROPOS THE ANNUAL RUNNING OF FIRE AND MUD)

Roaring radiant raging waves of heat,
the charging beast, glowing red hot with anger,
devours all within its path; left over sable statutes
send streams of spiraling smoke sketching
grayish designs upon...

Below is my original post from 2 weeks ago, President Obama has 
announced that VA Secretary Shinseki has resigned "voluntarily" from
his position, but let's face the fact the President fired him behind closed doors
so that Shinseki could save face and save Obama from more embarrassment.
Yet,...

You're a person who we shouldn't have hired.
You were the mail lady but now you're fired!
You are a moron, you don't have a lick of sense.
You've been reading people's mail, that's a federal offense.
You read a married man's letter to his lover who is pregnant...

No disrespect to my American friends,
Trump is your president, that’s totally whack.
But ‘Leader of the Free World’ that madness ends.
Such arrogance puts a target on your back.
Democracy’s nose like news media bends
North Korea’s a fraud, Gepetto’s a hack.
Bombastic tweets, is this the new politics?
Turn off...

gunshots, gunshots, gunshots
shots fired anonymously into the night

Why are so many shots fired in vain anonymously in the night
governed by unknown purposes on behalf of opposing ideals
engaged in conflict from behind a mask of camouflouged intents 
through the eyes of unforgivable hate by innocent hands...

This man held a prestigious position in our nation.
He was director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
A sudden decision caused him some grief.
He had been relieved of duties by our Commander-In-Chief.
The man was someone the President could do without.
With the director's ability, there was some...

Fired Up

Suddenly slow, then frozen up…My heart began to pound.
My computer means so much to me. It’s my touch to the outside world.
Then my knight came in the door… determined my dragon to slay. 
And let me tell you… as dragons go… he can slay...

Just your passing look,
	a flashing smile;
My life isn't the same, 
	no, not once. 
You're lovely, my Love--
	disarming; 
Cuddling me, fresh rose 
        in its bloom; 
Carrying me through storm 
	under sail.
Your love, summer sun, 
	glows like flame; 
Setting...

O’ my dearest love,  
I gather the world’s rarest petals for you—  
Ghost Orchid fragrance lingers  
in the marsh’s quiet air  

look, love, it fades  
then rises in  
the curve of my hands  
on the curve of your...

When a department wants to get rid of a worker, 
The processes used can be slow,
Transferring to a place where they will be moot, 
Ignoring everything that they know,

Where they exist, day by day, in an office of work, 
Where their job is not even...

ME, MY MUSE AND ME!

ME
What I am about to say and do,
Would be inconceivable by more 
Than a few,
How could I dare,
Its isn’t fair,
For it is Christmas season,
Do I have a valid reason
I hear you say,
Please hear me out I pray!
My muse has been cheating,
Spying...
