Short Abbott Poems

Abbott and Costello
knew a baseball fellow
didn't know his name
so they played a game
Who's on First?
quenched our thirst...

How many times have they rehearsed 
Abbott and Costello- "Who's on First" 
Most all the players- they've talked about 
Except for me, because I played...left, out...

Does anyone remember Abbott and Costello
Goofy as they were, my memories are mellow
Their antics were silly
A bit willy nilly
Bud and Lou were hilarious fellows...

John Abbott was thrown from his mount
Right in front of a girl who might count
Cuss words ran from his lips
As his pants ran in rips
To mask it John sat down in a fount

Abbott and Costello's “Who's On First” was a hoot
Their timing was incredible especially Lou's
A high scoring team
Lou came apart at the seams
Frustrated and bamboozled nearly pooped in his suit...

My uncle died today
I don't know what to say
He was my fave.

Full of vim and vigor
Didn't need gun and a trigger
To have his say.

Slightly misogynist
But ain't the best of us
Flawed in some way?

I'll miss Abbott.
Has been my habit
To love him every single day....

Batman had Robin,
Abbott had his Lou,
Harvey had his rabbit,
Just as I have you

Like milk and cookies
Naturals together since times of yore
And our President Bill Clinton
Had his friend Al Gore

Like Peace and War
Tolstoy's famous book
And magazines so alike
Like "Life" had it's "Look"

I walk in nirvana
Unsure if this is true
And you can count on
A love forever for you...

Day of mourning
for the music world
the red bearded god is slain
upon the stage his blood was spilt
metal will never be the same
a guitar genius
the best there was
his brother Vinnie
sick with loss
no-one else can fill his shoes
he played it all
from rock to blues
Dimebag Darrell
rest in peace
a blacktooth i drink for you
the Hendrix of our generation
live forever like all legends do...
