Semi-Salted
He deserved, but never served
As a squid just like his dad
Well preserved, but fragile nerved
All emotions were unclad
Anxiously, he set to sea
Needing moxy really bad
Waves of three, his soul set free
Now ever a salty lad

Honest Politician Is A Semi-Oxymoron
Honest salesman is a semi-oxymoron
Just like an honest politician
Please do not laugh, all lawyers or
Accountants are not crooks. When the door
Is wide open a mouse, a rat, a cockroach
Would me more than happy to approach
Some politicians have tried to be better
And more credible. Some are men/women of honor
However, others are pathological liars
They are professionals who

semi protests
the stubborn semi stood on his head
you cannot make me go, he said to Ed
Ed was angry now, a trucker who never swore
You are a piece of work, metal scrap and more!
the town came to see the semi and gave support
he was just protesting his wages, said Uncle Mort
He has been on his head for

Semi-Indulgent Moon Bounce
I am if not a man of routine
A glass half full is a still a big spill if it tips
I can't believe you’d let those words slip
So make like Pluto and demote yourself
That's only something you'd say
While imagining someone else
The floodgates were opened and now it's time to build

A Blind Semi Truck Driver
Grandpa and grandma formed a senior gang.
They dressed to kill with matching shirts that hang.
Logo; Old As Hell Angels.
Three heavenly archangels,
Pit stop had to make, "A Semi," they sang.

Semi Final
Twas the semi final
Coming to its end,
Three all male finalists
Bucking previous trend.
When told she was leaving
She'd stoically played her part.
Deep down she was seething
With murder in her heart.
One great yell of Banzai
One contestant dead
Felled by a heavy frying pan
Smacked across the head.
The first one down and,
With, her anger still unsated
She hid inside the grounds

Semi-Colon
A young boy stopped in the bookstore…he said, “Hello, sir. How are you? I hope you’re doing well.” On second thought I think he was a teenager…the older I get the harder it is to tell.
“I have a question he whispered.” Moving closer in on me. “I promise to be brief. Do you

Semi Divorced
She was a less-than-truckload lady
Who’d signed a contract for the long haul
With the interstate driver she married.
But that trucker kept a bogus bill of lading
And a logbook full of lot lizard flings.
So now she’s rolling down the big slab
In her hubby’s bobtail bulldog,
His gooseneck flatbed stranded in the wings.
She’d just renewed her CDL for diesel;
Her

Winning a Semi Through a Missed Penalty
When England play semi finals they tend to draw,
losing on penalties to teams who score more,
someone will miss one of that we are sure,
repeating the fate of the England before,
The tale of the shoot out we've had to endure,
in extra time last night Harry Kane didn't score,
but the rebound he did

Poetic Versus About the Semi Final Round
Four score, nothing there
Ukraine lost the Roman hosted sporting affair
Back in London Boris raises a Saturday pint
Proclaiming success on this summer’s night
Soon the red, white boys will be coming home
Right now, Wembly is dark and alone
Waiting for Tuesday’s Spanish Inquisition
Italy goalers
