Short Dirk Poems

Impossible to stifle
the firing of a 7 foot
German Rifle

the Heat couldn't stop Dirk
from putting
in work

There once was a man from Dunkirk
Who always was late for his work.
This man was so lazy,
He drove his wife crazy.
She stabbed him awake with a dirk.

just under his kilt
                 slightly hanging at a tilt
                     from the tip to hilt
           once great weapon starts to wilt
             highland dirk ~ covered in silt

In my secret heart I’ve felt
Like a blood-crazed Celt,
Scottish, Irish, either one,
Killing Britons with my gun.

Or with broadsword or with knife,
Dirk, or dagger, taking life
In an Ulster alleyway,
Or Culloden Moor that day.

Smoke and blood on heather grass,
Celtic reverie must pass,
Like a distant, dimming dream
Drowning in a dank, swift stream....

There once was a naïve Southern lassie
who believed some politicians classy.
She swallowed all of their guff
like an Emp'ror in the buff.
and soon found out there was NO guarantee.

She soon hired a civil rights GO team
who championed not one of the fine cream
They got lots of work
for ladies named Dirk,
but that was not what she wanted it seems?
