For love, take a chance
Take two, even three
Throw caution to the wind, for love
Not to do so seems absurd
Independence-
Hypnotic illusion, absurd intoxication
The more I enjoy the more I feel subjugated!

I feel for ya' cooking Queen
Dramatic measures over a few words
Their actions seem far more absurd.
First the cornbread now the turkey
his movements seemed herky-jerky
stuff a bird
think absurd
sounds to me a bit quirky
‘Circling the wagons’
is an absurd cliché
‘Cos even stations-wagons
are out-of-fashion today
We walk
And talk
In words
Absurd.
Words flow
With no
Pretense
Of sense
But sound
Profound.
A dog by the side of the road
Whelped out her cute little load
A copper who saw
Reeled off the law
Cited for littering I’m told
Two monkeys sat in a tree
Laughing and pointing at me
It was so absurd
I flipped them the bird
Now the zoo is a place I can’t be
The news has become quite absurd
Mocking the journalistic word
Often appealing
Never revealing
Just dishing out mountains of turd
the deeper thought behind mere words,
the wey is cast out with the kurd,
in spirit another way absurd,
but all of it ok!!!...
Don
Ogden Nash
New York poet Ogden Nash
with rhyme made quite a splash
His topics aesthetically absurd
so popular though when heard
Around my desk I chase the words
Some ridiculous, some absurd.
Petootsie flashes me with her bum
Multiplication demands a little sum
Life of Absurd Politician
could be too confused
absurd and always abused
mishandled and misused
Jim Horn
Does that sound fair?
The Pelican, the Pelican
Can he catch fish
Yeah, hell he can
For a silly bird
Who looks absurd
It’s surprising
Just how well he can
Once was robin-bird
Acted quite absurd
Bombed friend once; did it twice
Gall to even mark her thrice!
Don't care to explain what heard!
Actions speak louder than words
A saying I thought was absurd
Till Mom showed the way
If I don’t obey
The paddle tells things went unheard
Frankfurter is an obsolete word
Then again beanie weanie sounds absurd
the term wienerwurst is another way
to indicate a hotdog on game day
what is one to think
what is left to say
when one is awestruck by the
absurd absurdity of the absurd

Listen to poem:
sound it out
let it be heard
to mute is so absurd
let's hear it out
not drawl on written word
mouthed in silent blurb
to no one who called out
The king, with a taste quite frail,
Met his end munching on a snail.
It may sound absurd,
But that's what I heard,
A slow demise for a royal tale.
Volatile beauties,
our fleeting lives...
What absurd wonders,
our joyful sad fates...
eternal lives,
while they last... !
While here I can write undeterred
This work will at times seem absurd
When this kills my high
It's just time to try
Finding joy solving a crossword
She was called the Lyin’ Tamer.
Absurdity would enflame her.
She could spot a line
way back from foot nine.
She’d decline and who could blame her?
An owl is a curious bird
Whose hooting you've probably heard.
It's deemed to be wise
Has perfect disguise
And eyes of a size quite absurd.

Ego -- to folks today a dirty word
a notion our Creator finds absurd
Without our egos, we're all the same
~ Was Adam created with that aim
