Long Achoo Poems

Galore of buzzfeeding, needling and scamming female hustlers...

with a scheming, loving, and enticing guise

The Humpback
by Michael R. Burch

The humpback is a gullet
equipped with snarky fins.
It has a winning smile:
and when it SMILES, it wins
as miles and miles of herring
excite its fearsome grins.
So beware,...

kill him kill him they laughed
nobody wanted to miss the show

The facts of life, O birds and bees,
how getting aroused, can trigger a sneeze,

Living my life was such a threat

Berenice! Berenice! 
Where are your teeth?
And where did I leave my soul?

why do they call it a sneeze
when it's clearly achoo
or call you a nut

Spring's not all about feeling chirpy good, 
Boom of blooms causes pollen allergies, 
Scour and scrub the house of dirt, that I should!

A thousand drummers playing drums
within my head, 
like firecrackers bursting, 
Rivers of (whatever) oozing out, 
Trickling eyes, prickling nose, 
Snee..achoo!..zing...and sneezing...and sneezing! 
Every muscle aches, 
Feeling fatigued and flushed, 
Puffy eyes, stuffy nose, 
Bouts of...

He was struggling with the dreaded bird flu
He loved to dance and sing
And a crowd it would bring
Until he " achoo-ed", his fans then flew

Soon one and all will welcome the unique
Pleasantness of spring. Sun’s
Rays and showers will fulfill their
Intended purpose, engendering

and all day, too, with farmer Byron’s crew
of sheep, that is, that wander underneath

The trees unfurl their buds and blossoms cheer.
Howdy-do Spring…achoo…grab a tissue.
Grass grows Godiva-strong. It’s as I fear -

The sun is harsh…it’s heart...

With tons and tons of...
