Goodbye Gene Hackman
It's sad when I say that Gene Hackman and his wife have died.
Gene starred in three Superman movies and Bonnie and Clyde.
In addition to Gene and his wife perishing, their dog died as well.
I don't know if it was foul play, only time will tell.
Gene starred in many movies, he was born to act.
When I

Limericks
A scientist said to his mate
“We came from the line of primate!”
Said one of the men,
While waving his pen,
“Refer to yourself, not us, mate.”
An ape heard the scientist say
That men share the same gene as they.
The ape proudly said,
“You’d wish you were dead--
Insult us no more or you’ll pay.”
Among 1st Place
A new funny or bawdy

The Mean Gene
“The mean gene”
The act of treating all living creatures like sh*t
Is it a learnt behaviour
Or ….. are you born with it?

Husky Gene
My Missy girl has got a quirk;
when it gets cold, she goes berserk.
Then she becomes the sled dog queen;
I think it is her Husky gene.
Iditerods now, we complete;
she tries to pull me off my feet.
She drags me up and down the trail,
and all the time, just wags her tail.
To cold, she seems impervious,
and also to

Peter William Johnson – X
Really loved the joys of sex
First experienced at seventeen
Not the youngest there’s ever been
But by the time he was twenty one
Peter William was dead and gone
Just a poor bloody infantryman
Who gave his life in Afghanistan
Friendly Fire the report said
Whichever way he was dead
Not much of a body was really found
Dispersed by

A Scene To Be Not Seen
What on earth made the teen
Go ahead to create a scene
That should not have been seen:
That I watched and was lean;
Ungovernable feathers happily preen?
Only yesterday did Mum him wean;
Who had nothing thought but his well being
An off and on “Where have you been”
And to his mum “What do you mean”
Always for

An Oversized Giggle Gene
Where does one find humour?
Everywhere one looks... at least I do
Others may not see it like me
But maybe I'm just built differently
I was blessed with an oversized giggle gene
It's certainly not a bad thing I guess
Could have turned out to be a serial killer
Often thought I may have missed my calling
But I guess I'm a

Women must have a special gene
Not like us jocks they wear tight jeans
My eyeballs bug out
At times twist and shout
Might even call it a scream extreme

Duet
Sonnet: Duet (II)
by Michael R. Burch
If love is just an impulse meant to bring
two tiny hearts together, skittering
like hamsters from their Quonsets late at night
in search of lust’s productive exercise . . .
If love is the mutation of some gene
made radiant—an accident of bliss
played out by two small actors on a screen
of

I’m an Eskimo
From the North Pole
Being cooled by my gene

Not harm them me

Being cooled set by my gene
