Best Shazam Poems
Thirsty? I
wonder,
well I’ll
pop my
top. I’ll
hiss and
you’ll sigh
the fun just
won’t stop. I’d
like to teach the
world to sing, really
it’s no joke. For I’m the
pause that refreshes, yup
Coca-Cola is Coke! Good to
the last drop, you know it’s
true. The best combination
Is Red, White and You! Coke
adds to life wherever you are.
Just have a Coke and shazam,
you’re a star. I am as pure as
sunlight for all folks see; your
passport to refreshment; so
just what will it be. Let me
share a wee secret there’s
no need to be coy. Just
open a Coke, then sit
back and ENJOY. I’m
the favorite drink for all
sorts of folks. You just can’t
deny it, things go better with
Coke. And you can’t beat the
feeling; so don’t throw a fit.
When you’re feeling Thirsty,
Look to me, COKE IS IT!

Thanks for the average dinner last night
It wasn't exactly a culinary delight
It wasn't that nice but it wasn't that vile
That it made me so sick or bring up some bile
It just lacked flavour, finesse or shazam
The chops were bland, I think they were lamb
The mash was lumpy with minimal seasoning
Now please stop crying, with you there's no reasoning
I've told you before now I'll tell you again
I am the judge of all women and men

Superman Confesses
By Elton Camp
At last the truth has come out
What Superman was really about
Pressure he was under was severe
To be the very best superhero here
Captain Marvel had help of Shazam
“My power’s enhanced & here I am”
Batman had help of riches galore
To be more than he was before
Spiderman had science to his aid
With that help, he had it made
So poor Superman just had to hedge
Use something that gave him an edge
Performance-enhancing drugs he found
Let him be the strongest hero around
A mixture of every type he did try
Until he found that it let him fly
Such drug use he tried to deny
Until Lois Lane gave it the lie
The facts he decided he’d confess
So to the good Oprah did address
“I’m sorry that I did such wrong
I had to do it to be that strong”

The Cafe
In my favourite café, the one
where nobody asks my name,
or who I am, or try to sell me
their postcards, or the latest
shazam!
I sit quiet, and write and make
believe, and sometimes watch
the flies, being, the flies on the wall,
and wonder what it’s like to be
that small, with compound eyes
and a long proboscis…
I’ll never know.
But today outside, lies my muse,
a rusty old motorbike, a step through,
from the old days, red with a tin, cream
trim.
Pigs on the back today? Maybe steel?
Whatever pays the best; maybe a calf
tomorrow?
But it’s not mine…no; it’s the little
guy’s, who lives across from me, in
the house with the dogs and the
parrot, and the green tin shutters.
And the bird; the parrot, mimics and
swears at passersby, who; turning,
scowl, then walk on.
And with the dogs, the parrot, the
flies and the guy, who by the way is
quite thin, I focus on the red and
cream tin motorbike, and try and
write therein.

Homework, friends, no time to spend,
watching TV or being lazy.
Assigned to work, no choses for you,
but TOUGH cookies all the pressures on you know who!
Tests, quizes, and exams, the teachers say 'SHAZAM!'
Think they know how hard it can be, on one who is always busy?!
NO!
5 pages of notes to copy down 'it'll take two minutes, no sweat' they say!
HELLO!! we are DIEING overhere anyway!
5 pages of notetaking,
an essay you must write,
and don't forget about all that homework for tonight!
The powerpoint that must be 56 slides, is due today, but I forgot to do that anyway!
That song you must compose that has to be meant for the sapranos, happens to be in your
desk, along with the rest on your info. for the test!(it happens to be open notes!)
For Spanish you find out you grabbed the wrong book, and you must look at the example
that's in YOUR BOOK!
Then comes the hardest part of your day, returning home to hear your mother say.....
"Hi honey, how was YOUR day? Got a little bit of homework?"
You just sigh and say forget it anyway!

MAKE A WISH
A wish for all the wishes that I wish
remove them from the murky field of doubt
make them come true with magic wands quick swish
awaken to the fairies sunrise shout
“SHAZAM! Now that’s what I’m talking about!!”

Bedazzled
that's how it hits you
all important WHAP SLAP look at that
coloured lights bling
and place your faith in
fixation on yet another political criminal
Bedazzled
shazam
sham or scam
will save you as you walk through
the plagiarized passages of doubt
yep
for sure
there is a way out
and a place to place your faith
in a tangle ball of wool
the felonious cats have played with
Chew yourself on that dry hairy fur ball
Claws of rhetoric
BAM WAP WOW
dazzles sycophantic
tells you every-think you think you want to hear
and put all your trust here, there, everywhere
and chomp on the placebo
of yet another political criminal
Different face
same photo-fit voice
burbling, fur-balling, the same old words
your introduction into their criminal world
KAPOW KABANG
bedazzled
and you're falling for it all over again
the collusive world
destroying the lives of every single human
Chew yourself on that dry hairy fur ball

Jim Nabors always said "Shazam", that was his catchphrase.
Because of his contributions to television, he deserves praise.
It was hard for him to watch the opening credits of Gomer Pyle because many of those Marines died in Vietnam.
We always know that he's on Gomer Pyle or the Andy Griffith Show when we hear him say "Shazam".
We also remember him yelling "Citizen's Arrest".
All of his fans are sad and they're also depressed.
He also starred in some movies, two of which were Cannonball Run 2 and Stroker Ace.
His friends, fans and family have to say goodbye, his death is hard for them to face.
(Dedicated to Jim Nabors who died at the of 87 on November 30, 2017.)

I've learned the error of my ways
That buying ice cream never pays
I sit and eat the whole shazam
Well what a little pig I am!
And donuts are another joy
I shouldn't have because oh boy!
I can't pass up a cream filled one
Trust me,the bellyache's no fun
Don't start me up on cheesecake dear
I can't control myself it's clear
So I will have to contemplate
The fruits and veggies I just ate
They'll keep me healthy that's for sure
But celery doesn't have the lure
Of sugar-laden fantasy
I'm stuffing chocolate-let me be!

Self quarantined misanthrope pitched into purgatory wham!
Ably cane resign eternal damnation (mine)
courtesy devil specially engraved telegram
prestidigitation found me vanishing shazam,
without a trace I disappeared in thin air voila
Earthly travails atop horns of dilemma ram
into me buttucks pitching yours truly ma'am
hoisted by my own petard sheepishly wool
ewe (red dully) bull heave human bug eyed
recalcitrant specimen (me) nonetheless lamb
basted skewered (think shish kabob) log jam
succinctly described helplessness to preserve
ultimately repurposed into green eggs and ham
harmless recluse no more valuable than flotsam.
Grant simple wish to withdraw into hermitage
coronavirus (COVID-19) just desserts we wage
us *****sapiens on trial across web world stage
severely misappropriating Earthly resources rage
understandable Gaia she pointedly reminds adage
inescapable comeuppance whereby our civilization
written off as atrocious, hellacious, malicious, page
poisonous primates essentially, dismally, yes clearly
bollixed, failed, leveraged, & tortured planet I gauge
hell in a handbasket ironic tragicomic fate wise sage
of yesteryear did prognosticate now we scurry hither
and yon, to and fro Smashing Pumpkins immortalize
metaphor likened each one of us as rat locked in cage
bajillion eons ago once upon a time our noble savage
ancestors levels playing field now new bacteriophage
relentlessly pits twenty first century civilization doles
microscopic organism (battling unseen enemy) voyage
around sun fraught tooth and nail powder milk biscuits
a Prairie Home Companion ruse buzzfeeding courage
for shy people (yours truly) communicating message,
albeit urgent to revamp paradigm to live social - nsync
with eco friendly coda allowing, enabling, & providing
liberty and justice for all living (colorful) things hostage
at mercy of self proclaimed superior beasts above average
with intelligence, yet rendering oblate spheroid garbage.
No major inconvenience incapacitates rather humdrum
bard (rarely bored), I wanna pitch headlong into scrum
no need to scream and shout, cuz I speak softly to mum
(Mother Earth) reassuring, she inevitably bests hoodlum
standing arrogant, boastful, deceitful comfortably numb
oblivious when day of reckoning delivers offal maelstrom.

Dramatic Verse
Eureka, Shazam, the moment just came,
The moment came out of the blue,
Where all that I’ve written from deep down inside,
Can finally come into view,
I can speak out each poem like a poetry slam,
Poems you’d speak to the moon,
And digitize each on the new record app,
Then distort it to make it in tune,
And to give it some funk I’d add an organ,
And drums to accompany my voice,
Yep, a poem with some instruments to support what is said,
A jazz sort of melodious noise,
Oh wait, hang on, this isn’t something new,
Poems with some symphonic jam,
It’s what I hear on the radio each day,
It’s a song that is sung by a band.

Abracadabra
Say Abracadabra, Ala kazam
Jette with Bibity Bobity Boo!
Array a wish that your heart makes
Displays Hocus-Pocus! Poof! Magic comes true!
Open wide Seasame – first star to the right –
Reopen happy thoughts for magical things
Tokens of pennies fly from wizard’s wands
Spoken Shazam - Presto Chango on wings!
