A Nonsensical Tale
Exceptionally average
on every known scale
My life story’s such
a nonsensical tale

Striving for apathy
with passionate zeal
all of my flaws
I boldly conceal

I loudly proclaim
my feelings to none
and when there is trouble
bravely I run

No coward am I
unless there’s a need
and quickly I set forth
to slowly proceed

My virtues are many
just...

Wrong is right and right is wrong.
Long is short and short is long.
Black is white and white is black.
Toilet paper we may lack.

All is zero. Zero’s all.
There’s no writing on the wall.
Down is up and up is down.
The scientist is now a clown.

Toes need hands...

Football, Volleyball, Baseball --- a Nonsensical Poem
Football, volleyball, baseball, softball, 
Racquetball, handball, basketball, hardball. . . . 
There're lots of sports in the world you play with a ball, 
And you can't play any of them if you're an oddball. 

If you want to be good at any such sport, 
You've...

Hating One Another --- An Almost Nonsensical But Pessimistic Poem
We hate one another. 
We can't get together. 
We know it's better to be friends, 
But we just don't even bother. 
Our turmoil is so intense.
It's at the end of our tether. 
All the King's Horses 
And all the King's Men 
Couldn't get us together....

An Absolutely Nonsensical Pseudo Poem That Fails To Pass For a Fairy Tale
When poet Tennyson was very young,
He was a handsome tiny son, 
Who loved playing tennis under the sun.

When in his teens,
Tennyson excelled at his studies 
So much so that he won the admiration of 
Adorable girls who numbered ten.

As an adult Tennyson the tiny son...

Comp Sci and Sci-Fi --- a Nonsensical Poem

A Nonsensical Scribble
A Nonsensical Scribble



Vivid colours,
straining, yearning,
closeted between hues,

weaving tapestries,
flowing through shades,
dissolving my swirling blues.



Rainbows merge,
singing plaintive dirges,
etched on dusty rough sleeves

urgent scribbles,
humming notes of woe,
hurriedly embossed on fallen leaves.



Melodies quicken,
words entombed in mouths,
fading, trapped in emerald green,

seizing dreamscapes,
blurring glimpses of truth,
slipping between visions unseen.



My heartbeat gallops,
committing...

Look Up Into the Milky Way --- a Nonsensical Poem
Look up into the Milky Way 
Streaming down the sky to the bay 
Connected by sea to Skara Brae. 
Do those ruins contain some clay? 
On that faraway land, are there any dogs stray? 
If I go there, will a beautiful girl be coming, 
Serving...

Nonsensical Antidote
Some say that black is white
Others say that sadness is delight
Some say that right is wrong
Others say that short is long

I need a nonsensical antidote
Where is the first aid kit?

Some say that light is heavy
Others say that huge is tiny
Some say that evil is good
Others...

Miserably one bright sunny morning
I was happy to see rain was pouring
That day I went to a zoo in the sky
Saw elephants fly, and hyenas cry.

Zebras looked awesome, red, amber and green
That was their stripes, the best I’ve ever seen
The monkeys thrilled, swinging from star...

Mint, Peppermint, Cool Mint --- a Nonsensical Pseudo-Poem
Mint, peppermint, Cool Mint, badminton. . . . 
But that's not what I meant. 
You still don't know what I meant? 
Then I'll give you a hint. 
There's a famous guy named Clint. 
Yes, his family name is Eastwood. 
As an actor, he's sharp as...

When I ate the orange
On the plate did arrange
This was one more challenge
He grabbed a slice, I cringe
At his rudeness, though derange
Somehow I will avenge
Oh! But I can change
I'll just ride the range
Eating my orange
On the very fringe...

Back and Forth Nonsensical
Dennis sinned
My gym
Did I? I did.
Do geese see God?
God saw I was dog
Don't nod don’t nod
Ah, Satan sees Natasha
Art, name no tub time. Emit but one mantra.
Rats live on no evil star
Too bad I hid a boot
Madam, in Eden I'm Adam
Oozy rat in a sanitary...
