So not funny

No so funny, man,
Feeding me spam,
Morbidly yours, all right,
More verbs, how blight,
Don't waste your words,
You're beyond absurd,
Negative chaff and chatter,
Really does not matter,
Get over yourself, 
Get off that shelf,
Go get a life,
Signed, your only wife!
No one believes your spam,
Morbidly yours, now scram!


Premium MemberSomething Oddly Familiar About This Nonsense

“Abe, easy Dee, effigy, eight chives, Jake, ale, Em, 
any hope, peak you, arrest a ewe, feed other ewe”
                                                            ex-wife said

     she certainly SPELT it out!
     he then went on to reCOUNT

“When, too, furry forks, fave socks sieving, eat known tin”

     and there was something oddly familiar about it all
     when ex-husband and ex-wife spoke their nonsense

Premium MemberDon't Shoot the Messenger

Pardon me I have a message

You may think that it's a joke

But the bank has sent this letter

To inform you that you're broke

I can tell by your expression

None of this is very funny

But your wife and her lawyer

Just ran off with all your money 

I know this comes as quite a shock

But Mister Man I'm begging you

Please don't shoot the messenger

I've got another job to do

You can't divorce a good joke

She said she could never imagine me being married.
This stung.
We laughed.
I am the comic--
not the romantic.
Pain is pettier
felt without witness;
better yet, with punchlines.

Those who weep and wail are...
Genuine?
Authentic?
Deserving of more
labors of love?

We mustn't blame ourselves
for this.
We are pathetic souls,
and I am
fine with it.

After all, my spouse is already my sense of humor.

Your Heart I Want It Back, By Davieo, David Rothchild

Your Heart I want it back, By Davieo, David Rothchild

Your Heart
I want it back
It was always my fervent passionate art
To draw out your laughter, smiles, track

Your feelings, whims, delights, moods
Awesome emotional baked goods
They have a solid place in my heart
Yours in mine so, we are never apart

Your heart, its crushing
Soul building binding love rushing
Into me, so potent, in every moment
Without it life's an unbearable torment

Your golden thrusting sparkling skies
Of love, will me, fill me, thrills my whys
Sets my lightning sky joys floating higher
Fire after fire, after fire, after fire, after fire

Just your looks, your sparking electrifying touch
Rocking soothing velvet skin, means so much
Your masterful magnetic magical melting smell
A forceful winning spell which mighty armies compel

I can see wonderful heaven in your eyes
Joyous of our vaulting love all angels cries
Ascend, that this love should be a compass
For eternal loves, passions that will always last

By Davieo, David Rothchild


Premium MemberShe Named Her Husband Ruth

She named her husband Ruth. He thought it was funny at first.
Her second husband was nicknamed Thomasina.
He left before the marriage was consummated.
You have to stop doing this her mother told her.
She nicknamed her mother spoil sport Dick.
Spoil Sport Dick disowned her.

Little people, funny creatures
Once so  fragile now so strong
Little people, who are you now? 
To me no more do you belong.

I wait so fearful, apprehensive 
Who am I to be?
Was once their world, their eager faces 
Eternally turned to me.

I doubt, I fear, I do not believe
And thoroughly distrust
The bond of motherhood so strong
Find strength for them, I must.

What cannot be broken, has changed forever
A ghostly reminder it did not last
Our fortress of love soon to crumble
We are but memories , fading fast. 

So here I stand an empty vessel
Who am I to be?
Those little people, funny creatures
What do they want from me?

Train of Love

My heart's out on the train track
and the train is on it's way
When I think the whistle's blowing
and the breeze has lied to me

And I go about my business
knowing love is on the way
When the train must run me over
For the love to fell away

When its only time to tell me
That the train was running late
As it's only scheduled to me
when my moves were not that great

And my love could only fail
for my life to end this way
As it's only make-believe
that my love has come today

In a train that keeps on chugging
for an engine in dismay
Where I loved her for another
down the track past where I lay

Premium MemberThe West

The West

A gun, a holster, bullets…
A glass of whiskey and 
a ten-gallon hat.
A horse, a saddle, a bridle…
and bags to hold it all. 

Good guys, bad guys, 
sheriffs, and hoods. 
Shoot outs, long rides,
and even skinning hides…
just for a living. 

Heroes and villains…
Fought caught and hanged…!
Eternally glorified,
all around the world.

Cowboys of fame…
never refrain.
You are who you are… 
Spaghetti to hard sand, 
a rare, uniquely, promised land.

Deserts and high country, 
Indians and explorers…
Men of great pride!
Your word, your bond, 
Your story,
will last long. 
Forever.

Premium MemberVows

Dearly Beloved,

Do you take this member? 
Both hard and limp
Whether he’s a stud or a wimp? 

Either flaccid or erect
Honor and obey 
Your supposed to reflect

What is the reason 
You wish to get hitched?
Afraid of being rejected?
And possibly ditched?

A contract with a clause 
To help you when you pause 
Give me half 
So says our laws 

I loved you before 
But that was then 
Now that your broke 
You’re simply a has been 

I find it funny that
Your emotions 
Reflect a price 

We used to smile 
And you were nice 

But time has eroded 
Our happiness and joy 
Was your affection just a ploy?

Anyone married 
Knows the game 
I love you and need you 
But you drive me insane 

Marriage they say is an institution
But when it goes wrong 
You suffer retribution 

It’s better to be single 
And remain in peace 
Then to put your heart on a lease 

Eric (and sometimes not)

Man Named Morse

There once was a man named Morse
Who was really as strong as a horse
But when he feared a little mouse
Running madly around the house
His wife quickly filed for a divorce

12 Days of Xmas

On the first day of x-mas
My ex wife gave to me
a card from her new attorney

On the second day of x-mas
My ex wife gave to me
Two weeks to leave
and a card from her new attorney

On the third day of x-mas
my ex wife gave to me
Three poloraids
two weeks to leave
and a card from her new attorney

On the fourth day of x-mas 
my ex wife gave to me
Four hotel bills
Three polaroids
two weeks to leave
and a card from her new attorney

On the fifth day of x-mas 
my ex wife gave to me
five ....oh hell
I was gone...by this time
who am I fooling

and a card from her new attorney

Bee

I'm changing my name to bee. I'm busy as a bee. Cooking meals, paying the bills and then there's the groceries. Floors to sweep, floors to mop and the laundry too. So much to get done, always on the run. I'm busy as a bee.

I'm busy as a bee. Doctors appointments and physical therapy. Wash the car and fill up with gas. Taking out the trash. Watching the clock, no time to stop. Gotta move fast. 

I'm busy as a bee. Takes my mind off of me. Life's too short to sit in self pity, so if I'm feeling down I guess I best get up and get busy.

Premium MemberThe Little White Chapel

When my husband and I were in Las Vegas, I had a great suggestion,
To go to the Little White Chapel, and renew our vows in celebration.
I thought it would be such a lark we wouldn’t forget.
Having Elvis perform the ceremony would be the best thing yet!

However we never made it to the chapel, he refused.
To do such a silly thing did not leave him amused.
Maybe that was an indication of what was to come.
Divorce ensued, and sorrow beat its drum.

I want to go to the Little White Chapel with a new man.
We would have so much fun before our life began!
We could play a slot machine on our way out.
Then we would be man and wife with a payout!

Divorce Impossible

The spirit of divorce is in me
I want to divorce my beautiful wife
to marry a funny joyous  jest
the motives I do not know
But the more I want to divorce
the more I love her joyfully
divorce impossible, I guess
This annoys me as I chase my tail
she has tied my joyful heart to her bottom
yet her bottom is in my hateful foot
my heart is bitter, lips sweeter
but my ego is anemic and pale
cats twitter up and down my mind
monkeys gather at the door and jeer at me
the wind that blows asks me what’s up?
to all these  I cannot make sense at all
