Short Announcer Poems

Twenty thousand people watch him, the announcer says, " all eyes on him."
The crowd's so silent you can hear a pin drop.
Better yet two beyblades from fifty yards away.
What's his next move?

Nobody knows what goes on in his head....

so rich
to be
poorly
spelled

Aaron
as Aron
has me
to tell

that at
a local
talent
show

when the
announcer
proclaims
herrrrrrre's
Elvis

an impersonator
doesn't say he
isn't Andy
Kaufman

may they 
both enjoy 
the disbelief
of what is death...

I sat by the television today. Bored out of my mind I must say. I appreciate that I have senior status not as if it really matters. But when the television announcer place me as and old person. How time flies. I was just appreciating being a senior. Oh well tempus fugit....

The radio announcer lady on 91.9 FM
sounds about thirty-five years old. I wonder
how many hearts she’s broken in her time
and, for that matter, how about you?
Try to count them all up,
Two? Twenty? Two hundred thousand?, then 
give yourself forty lashes,
because it’s all the same....

Heard black the announcer on the Bernie-Hillary debate at Ohio 
State say the Broke is broke is broke.

Broke is broke is broke
Which will never be a joke;
So sad to be spoke.

Many hearts wearily this surely seems to sing;
Which one with you would you want to bring:
Either broke or being sad.

Korean Winter Blues


Korean Winter Blues

Korean winters 
Are shorter than before
Impact of climate change

Can get very cold
As Siberian winds
Blow in from Russia

Putting the whole country
Under a deep freeze
Polar vortex 

It does not snow
Too much
Except in the mountains 
The coldest day
I ever experienced
Was in Korea 
Back in 1979

The AFKN radio announcer
Said it was minus 70
That morning.

Tom dug deep in dell
had been on the way to hell
would sit for short spell

Brady we could tell
in love all the women fell
head started to swell

who would take Tom's place
down new candidate will chase
between ears short space

be big bar bouncer
a super sports announcer
some event sponsor

was Tom Brady
many deals may be shady
loved by each lady 

Mobility Ability Full of Senility

need ability
to have much mobility
also agility...

There they go!
Flying through the air!
Hundreds of them!
In different colors! Everywhere!
Red ship, blue ship, three ship four!
Who will win? When will it end?
I can't bear to look anymore!

Into the bunker we'll jump.
Darkness for weeks
Sitting rump-to-rump.

'Till the damned Zydeco music stops blarin'
And the five-headed announcer stops caring.

No one's watching the alien race, anyway.
What a horrible host planet 
For the Grand Prix Milky Way....
