Premium MemberNever Say Never

life can be funny or sad depending on how it goes I have had girlfriends say they would never love again they invited me to their big wedding day I feel that never is a very long time why put the word never onto anything I said for many years not to say never never is not in my vocabulary.


Premium MemberGrave Funny Oxymorons


A silent scream spreads through the night, 
A bittersweet joy in the darkness, 
In a world of sour sweetness, 
Joyful sadness waltzes bright. 

A deafening whisper calls us near, 
While noisy silence fills the day; 
Jumbo shrimp and icy flames, 
They play their little big matches. 

Living dead and peaceful strife, 
A false truth in everyday life, 
An awkward relaxed grace, a surprise, 
Truthful lies hide in plain sight. 

 With cruel kindness, we laugh as we cry, 
with open secrets that`re not hidden, 
A  false reality touches the air, 
An uncertain certainty spreads apace. 

In shameless honour, a giggle grows, 
As chaotic order settles, 
Across untimely time and space, 
Where grave funny oxymorons lie.

Premium MemberBefore the poem

Before I start this poem, I seek
To acknowledge that I sit on the land of the Wequaeesgeek
And that my laptop, at which I peer through thick glasses
drowns islands in the Pacific with greenhouse gases.

I know life has always given me the edge
Due to my Jewish Ashkenazi privilege.
And being male I'm in the patriarchy
At the top of the oppressive hierarchy.

I apologize for my pronoun being 'he'
At least it could have been 'they' or 'we'.
I apologize that all these apologies are fake
And for the real apologies that I didn't make.

Now back to my poem, it occurred at night
I can't let that idea fade, take flight
I didn't have a pen; I should have written it quick
I've lost the thread and now I feel sick.

Premium MemberIn The Aquarium

Contest: Zodiac Signs As Inspiration
Sponsor: Nette Onclaud
Date: July 6th 2026

In the aquarium here on Earth
Where Cancer, Scorpios and Pisces swim
They expand bubbles of imagination,
Making waves of inspiration. 
Here is where most empaths live
For emotions are their force.
As such, logic is trapped in a net
And dragged far, far away...
Alas! As a Pisces life now makes more sense!
With the brain of a fish I can at times be dense.

Premium MemberSleeping

I’m told I crawled before I stood,
but I really don’t remember.  Early
on I flopped a lot, before a steady
gate.  I believe it was a September?
Or maybe in a November?  
September? November? ~ I really
don’t remember.  While I do remember
never able to dream.  To this day
not a night of gleam.  Doctors claim
a screwy REM, spiritualists also
say I do but forget – I say, a curiosity,
while nothing I deeply fret.  But with
so much of my life asleep,  I wonder
why such a mysterious deep?  Yet
guardian angels I guess,  watching over 
me – would be nice if one made a peep.


Premium MemberSleepless Nights

Sleepless Nights, I have trouble at night and don't sleep very well. The doctor gave me, funny colored little pills. Life gave me, counting sheep one by one. The bible gave me, counting my blessings one by one. WOW!!! counting blessings really works.

Premium MemberDwayne ''The Rock'' Johnson



Dwayne Johnson known also as the Rock,
is a larger than life man who smiles around the clock.
His movies whether action or comedy are hits but he is humble,
wacky roles, always with humor and banter-  and action with not a stumble.

Premium MemberHARD KNOCKS-

Hard knocks, a child runs fall on the porch into the door

A Hard knock on the door, it's the police
A Hard knock on the I've been lock out
A healthy play outside, seek a d hide
A playing hard child, running wild full of fun, play and water
A hard knock on the door, cause he's got to potty

Premium MemberLove Poem To A Cat

Love Poem to a Cat

Your simplicity is Absolute.
As such, a Perfection of your kind.
Eat, Sleep, Cuddle With The Giants, Get The Pets
Repeat.
Your days a monochrome monotony
Eternal yet ephemeral
You can be a nuisance
But never trouble

     (unlike your sister, who ran off because Mom wouldn't share her ice cream)

The Outside World is not for you,
Dear Boy.
It would chew you up and spit you out;
We can't have that.

So stay in with us as we retire
Live out your hopefully longish perfect cat life
Safe in its comfortable nonexcitement

When you are gone
You shall leave
A furry little hole in my heart

So sleep well,
My dear little Bubbula.
Sleep well.

Premium MemberSuper Bowl of ages

Life challenges once I got old
Such balances as do as you’re told
Really ironic to me
How much I pee
A goal not to miss toilet bowl

Premium MemberValentino’s Past Life

He meowed once, lost his jersey “r,”
“La-guad-ee-ah,” says; so far
from normal and his, “house shoes.”
It’s “slippers,” past life breakthroughs.
The bizarre O language of love, thus far.

Premium MemberMy Funny Valentine

  My hubby dear does make me smile;
  spends lots of time in that one aisle.
  For his poet wife
  makes love come to life
  to find cards in rhythm-rhyme style!

Premium MemberAn Odd Style OCD


This man does weird things to his heart’s content,
wears odd sock pairs thinking it’s not dissent.
      Likes to live life of contrast,
      sticks to obsession steadfast,
lets strange style of mismatched socks make a dent.

Premium MemberFunny Bone Broken

Trying to write a limerick 
Not my cup of tea
Because my humor isn’t it
No funny bone in me

But I keep on trying
Like a kid riding a bike
The training wheels are off
If it takes my whole life

Premium MemberThe Give-Ups of Life

Anxiousness cause a breakout in hiccups,
When sentences sound like dainty teacups,
I cough them out, like troopers,
Catch audience jaws, droopers,
Hard look made all of them, only shut up.
