"Okay, tell me, who's gonna be next?"
said the writer of the too-long text.
"No, please, not me," said the lean noun.
"Cut that fat verb there, two lines down."

Bunch of limericks and other funny tricks II

I hate it when a girl rolls her eyes,
because that means she's on to my lies.
And then it's harder to get her
to let me under her sweater,
and then on to the ultimate prize.

I Am My Father's Son

"Clean down the tables with wet sponges! Rouse
Yourselves! And when...

The last romantically, poetically sad excuse for an apology, epilogue
But I've already messed up the...

Liquor of Lament: My Glass Is Half Full

When It Struck 11

When it struck 11, I sighed in relief

The time kept ticking on and it wasn't brief
And I'm so… patiently shaking like a leaf
Vigorously feeling vital everyday...
Every minute...every second...come...

In the silence, I hear your voice,
A whispered reminder, of my foolish choice.

And now I'm left...

Below the Horizon - Shallow Shame

Agony be to society's demise
Labels are for fools, not for the wise
Play the familiar tune of in-unison serenity
