Scotty the Skunk was sitting in class,
when his English teacher gave her students,
a poetry task. 
      Write a poem for me, on the subject
of who you would rather be.
      Scotty wasn't the best writer in...

An icy chill descends on 13 Beaver Veil Cottage as sisters Ester and Ellie walk gingerly up the steps on this wet and windy night.
This once charming pied-a-terre was now in a final phase denouement.
The trees surrounding this house creak ominously overhead as tangled electric...

He can't stop rhyming.
His mind races in cadence and timing.
Writing muses from within,
In both darkness and light, they begin.

Put to paper, in one pen stroke,
No force edits, and none of the hoke.
Modernists may very well blaspheme,
Believing they write, in deeper theme.

Cluttered words, and punctuation on...

He didn't mind other people laughing at him,
made it that much easier to poke fun at them
Talk about how they look,
imitate how they talk
Zing the nerds carrying their school books,
tease the girls about their Lolita walk
He was the class clown,
no doubt about it ... hands...

Her heart felt like it had been ripped out of her chest,
By a giant bear paw.
She had suspected for a few months that her twin flame was leaving.
They did not talk any more,
Did not eat at the same time.
Did not eat the same foods.
In January...

My child came home from school today
Unlike every other day, she didn't want to play
She looked deep in thought and sat quiet for a while
I asked "what's wrong? Where's your pretty smile?"
She started with "well mommy I don't know what to do"
"the best part of...

The Keystone Cops were funny,
Chaplain, Keaton, Lloyd, and Fields too.
Laurel and Hardy, and Will Rodgers,
Were just some of the names we knew.


Who can forget the Stooges, 
Or all the pies we saw them throw?
Who didn't laugh at the Brothers Marx,
Or Abbot and Costello?


Berle, Caesar, Skelton,...

An “Angel of the Odd” curiosity provokes
The Angel of Death is more welcome than he
Wine bottles in a keg?  What is it this angel smokes?
“The narrator’s house,” says Poe with wicked glee

Things are never as they seem in Poe’s fantasy
Much as in life, we...

Blame the parents
for rising their kids
with a foul language...
sins have a wage!

Only respect and morality 
make good citizens of society,
but many like to poke fun
at anyone who can't run.


By looking at them one realizes
they came from unstable families:
their mother was a drunker,
and their father an...

The Doctor Sobbed…..By Peter Onyancha

My doctor read
This letter to the letter
Shocked, Sobbed

Dear Doctor, I did –   

No ham, doc, No harm

I stuck to the steak too long
Now I go to the prairie
To pick an apple
And stick to it

I have let life to thrive
I...

Granpa wakes early needing to pee,
then sits at the table sipping his tea.
Ahh remember the time he could sleep through the night,
but now he holds on with all of his might.

Pop longs for the time when he finally retires,
He hopes it comes round before he...

Okay I am going to write some funny poems
Did you see the road ahead?
Why there are some road kills?
Talk about believing
I believe for some rain
Now it rains everyday
Not that kind of rain!
Lol.  Munch it.
I see some birds making nest on my tree
What? This is...

Well I know it's been forever and you didn't know what to do
Fear no more your philosopher is back with his clerihew
Who will be now name victim of this wonderfully silly form
Probably himself and anyone else is his norm

Yes Wayland wires these very quick
Rhyming and...
