Best Huh Poems
Feeble, a word not often used
in this hi-def, mega bite world,
where almost anything can be done
with the tap of a fingertip,
the aged still feel feeble.
This crackled feeling runs along the rims
of brittle nails
and gray-white strands of hair.
The once svelte figures of maid or man,
now chose more often to crunch and snap,
as ligaments roll unpleasantly over joint heads.
The witty repartee of youth is replaced by a dazed look.
Yes, at this moment,
après gym and post nap
and pre chair massage a wobbling frailness
surrounds me in a weak chicken broth
of feebleness.
fingerless mits
cover bloodless palms –
weak spring sun
emotion: feeble

Lol she replied to my joke that went over well
I paused in reflection thoughts of what the hell
LOl? Really lol instead of a giggle or laugh
My inner a--hole surfaced on English’s behalf
Why would you say that in a conversation I said
You’re killing English which is almost already dead
Um.. I really don’t know I guess it’s like a laugh she said with slight hesitation
No. not the slightest bit at all with an obvious frustration
OMG are you mad at me for an expression I used
OMG? Not another one and I’m upset with you for a language you abused
And by the way what’s OMG stand for
Oh my God, it’s another one we use, I’ve got more
No please don’t continue, heck omg who woulda knew
Well now you know so they can be used by you
Yeah I guess your right I’ll give it a try F.U.
When I was just a baby
Many years ago
I was so agile I could even suck my toe
Now I have trouble lifting up a cup
Oh how I hate growing up!.
When you'r a child everyone smiles at you
And say's ''awe, aren't you cute''
Bur now your an adult
Your as cute and popular
As an old worn out boot.
When your a kid
and lose a tooth
You put it under your pillow
And in the morning you find a quid
But now it's something you cannot do
Because you have to put your teeth into chew.
I suppose being an adult has it's advantages
You don't get ring worm nits and puppy fat
But why did I have to grow up
It wasn't in my plan
It just happened
And now I'm a man
Damn!!.

Scampi in a basket Plastic palm trees
A 70#s night club in Rotherham
They called Tiffany's.
Ever Friday night me and my mates would hit town
Go on a pub crawl and then later
Boogie on down.
I recall how the girls would dance around their handbags
Like it was some kind of fertility dance
And we were out to pull a bird
For some romance.
We'd stand at the side of the dance floor
Eyeing them up Trying to summon up some courage
To go dance and chat them up
But we needed more beer to sup.
As the music blared and the lights flashed
We soon emptied our pockets of cash
The girls looked so pretty dancing just a few feet a way
But to me at least
It seemed that they were out of my league
And it was as though they were a million miles away.
Should I risk it and take a chance to go and dance
Think I'll just have another drink first.
Five drinks later and I still hadn't drunk enough
To go and chat them up
And off I'd stumble to the toilets for the twentieth time
While all my friends were dancing
And having such a great time.
Suddenly I was drunk as a skunk and thought I was superman
I'd stumble back onto the dance floor
Trying to look cool like Bryan Ferry
But tripping over the girls handbags
An d looking such a fool
As the room spun around and around
But off to the toilet I'd have to again go
Another drink on the way back and I was ready
To chat someone up at last
Bit the music had stopped
And it was too late
The dance floor was empty
And most of the clubbers
Had gone home
And I was stood there swaying and falling about
On my own.
So Me and my mates would take a taxi home
I'd be sick all over the taxi drivers back
Always the same on the way back.
When I got home the room began to spin
The loud music still ringing in my ears
I'd be so drunk I'd just fall into bed
And wake up the next morning with a huge headache
And rocks in my head.
Never again I'd think to myself.
I was sick my pockets were empty
And had the biggest headache
Didn't get a girl or get a date
I might as well thrown my money down the toilet
And hit myself over the head with a very large fish
But we did the same thing every week
And I couldn't wait.

Some freezing rain is predicted today
Gonna stay put, the prognosticators I'll obey
Consider my life precious
Love eating lettuce
With gobs of coleslaw dressing, delicious that way
Huh???
He makes me do such silly things,
Terror and trouble he surely brings.
Gum in hair, and sticks in wheels,
No care for how everyone feels.
Mud pies thrown through the sky,
Embarassed my sister in front of that guy.
Things i did i will not soon forget,
Uh-huh. the devil made me do it.
Sugar in salt, and salt in sugar,
Made my brother eat that booger.
Sorry is a word unsaid,
Hand in cup equals pee in bed.
I cannot say that i hold any regret,
The devil surely made me do it.
speak it as it was to be
something for a world of
people to love and admire.
delicious and special.
she wanted something that was flavored naturally.
we determined that a sweet fruity flavor would
be best. because she was cooking chicken
and felt it was best to have as much chicken as vegetables
she decided to make it easier on herself by using
something large to marinate the birds in.
she was cooking twenty game hens, and wanted a mixture of flavor
to marinate the birds in.

5 sprigs of rosemary
4 sprigs of thyme
2 gingerootz (chopped)
5 small chilis (halved)
1 cup of cilantro
roast for about one hour( to extract the pungent aromas)
you only want the juices that are extracted from the mixture
drain by using a colander, and a fine screen.
allow to cool.
in a blender add

1/4 cup of salt
2 green peppers
1 large red onion

Once upon a time,
In a land so far away,
The boy who thought this rhyme,
had nothing left to say!
I think I will write funny poems from now on
You can get my preaching in between when you get it
Whenever
Why does the hen get so mad at the rooster?
Why not? Gee
How come you don't know what is good for you?
You never know anything anyway
Why do I have to eat this big meal?
Gut
Lol
Great
Get ready for this Polar Vortex
From hot to cold in one second flash
Sounds like someone you know?
Huh?
By the way, who is coming to your Thanksgiving dinner?
Make sure the One who should be there has the first place
Okay, I am done
Unless I feel like it in a few minutes
Haha
The timpani of rushing winds
In constant echoes in his ears
Higher notes of static ether
distorting interference as he sat
Waiting for that moment when
His thoughts could wander back to then
Without a conscious thread to use
his mind could rest from such abuse
And freely soar alone
To answer all those frantic thoughts
So fraught with tangled weaving
A ship at sail without a port
He felt his aura leaving
dont you really hate when someone keep saying huh
asking that same damn question as if they are dumb
and you repeat yourself the best you can
still they say huh as if they dont understand
make you wonder if you are just talking to yourself
or is that person just slightly deaf
huh is like the worst thing ive ever heard
matter of fact is it even a word
i think it's something we made up
to keep from answering a question or to get out of a rut
i dont care who you are or where you been
there has never been a conversation where huh didnt fit in
screwed.then i woke up
glued.by the pill you used too
what to do?open
I need to ask a question
Does anybody know
Who made up these crazy sayings
Like walking to and fro
They say it sales like hotcakes
Do hotcakes really sell
They call a skunk a polecat
Is that something to do with smell
Stick it where the sun don't shine
What's that supposed to mean
Or a great Idea is always heard
But very seldom seen
A penny saved is a penny earned
Well, how are you gonna eat
Or I've never met a person
I didn't wanna meet
So, if you know this answer
Somebody let me know
Until then, I'll be waiting
Just walking to and fro
Law school huh? Why?
Because I want to make money.
Because you love the law?
NO!
Because you adore reading?
Double L, no!
Because you want to be a lawyer?
Is that what happens?
It is supposed to.
Oh, well.
Maybe I’ll be a pharmacist.
They make a bunch of money.
They stand on their feet all day.
WHAT?
They count pills all day.
No way!
Why are they paid so much?
Like lawyers, they get rewarded for being bored daily.
Maybe I’ll be a social worker.
Honey, what is the goal here?
To make some REAL MONEY.
Snicker. Laugh.
Snicker Snicker. Laugh. Laugh.
Snicker. Snicker. Snicker. Laugh. Laugh. Laugh.
I can barely talk now.
He is sixteen and thinks he knows everything?
Yes, working in any helping profession
Makes you an instant millionaire, I agree.
