Comedian Roseanne Barr
A brash style gone far
Lived the sitcom she created
censorship is overrated
For Contest: Clerihew
I missed the toilet in the dark,
I'm always deadly as a shark,
I miscalculated -
math is overrated...
think basketball: Shoot with an arc.
It's not your looks, I
like but what you are INSIDE
*talking to my fridge*
Sometimes I pretend
that I’m dying to see if
my cat would save me.
Cousin’s math overly concentrated.
Using numbers that were overrated.
But how can that be?
Is three not still three?
She got angry, her math not well graded.
Geometry's so complicated
It is somewhat overrated.
Parallelograms amuse,
Trapeziums confuse,
But if you dangle
This triangle,
I bet you’ll
get the
point
!
N...Noose
E...Especially overrated
C...Choker with pendulum
K...Known nuisance to many men
T...Tolerated by status quo
I...It spells discomfort
E...Evil symbol

Grocery prices are now so inflated
I eat dried yams 'till my hunger's abated
Everything cost a mint
My billfold grows lint
Then again, food is so overrated!

Truth is overrated
with the flow of anger
everyone has a cursed soul
in which they can't lie
or sugar-coat the truth
So the truth is out there
Can You Handle The Truth!
You will find structure is overrated
Producing humdrum routine most hated
Better to seek fun and love
And spirit rising above
Don’t let those local mores keep you weighted
There are times when Spring seems overrated.
Lack of sunshine leaves me so frustrated!
It's not a good sign
when "the sun don't shine".
More rain coming? I'm so nauseated!
Perfection
It is NOT a perfect world
and perfection is overrated
Embrace your 'natural'
individuality
and be loved!

i need someone who’ll show me how it’s done:
how you take a heart and stay in love.
i need someone who won’t reap my soul and run;
a shakespeare who rather have a raven than a dove.
Love is overrated,
no doubt it's unneeded.
All you get from it is fight, hatred, and hurt.
It may be all fun and games in the beginning,
but in the end,
no one wins, and hearts are broken.
The sweet smart warmth of the sun
cannot be overstated.
Photosynthesis happily demonstrated
Wonderful vitamin D source
Never overrated.
God's love beaming down,
carefully orchestrated
Mountain of sorrow
Pile of manure
It is all a question
Of perception
Organic liquid
What of it
Companionship matters
More than anything
Beyond a certain age
Anything else is
Overrated.
The welcome on my doormat has faded
And it is your shoes that have worn it
I think my door is locked forever
But I hold out for someone to break through my window
Using the front door is so overrated
Form:
Searching for a buried treasure in my dresser
Looking for undies that ain't fresh, just fresher
Chances of fresh
No hope, my guess
It's overrated, but keep small animals at bay, however
A kiss is overrated and may bring about much pain
For once you have a nice one you’ll hunger more again
Hence please refrain from kissing me so I shall never be beat
From missing any kisses, I regard as sweet.
Imperfection is beauty, flaws are art,
Purity is overrated, failing is understated,
Strange is innovative,
Battle scars make a soldier,
Perfect makes the heart colder,
Make mistakes, miss a shot,
Dare to fall, dare to try.

Love is overrated
Coined by this heart accelerated
Today exhilarated, tomorrow sorrow filtered
Emotions exuberant
Loneliness exonerated
Time extinguished
Togetherness envisioned
Oh what splendor
This love dreamed
Form:
Bought
comfort
in a brand
of green flip-flops
from this blond cashier
who wore pure thoughtlessness
as his new philosophy
while imposing absurd notions
on the youthful minds of persuasion
that inner beauty is overrated
Sleep overrated
Exhaustion at a new high
Deadlines to meet
Lost in the clarity of the sky
Torment of procedure
Ones unknown to my peers
Unknown to me
Alas!!! An opportunity to snooze
I'll take it... yes
an hour maybe two... how about three
I got lost in a swarm of people
who knew other people
who thought politics were overrated,
who were constantly for equal rights
for every damn thing,
and then there was me
who was trying to look for you,
despite the cacophony of
human sounds.
An exceptional young man from the Old Dominion
Was in love with his most overrated opinion
He spouted the verse and chapter
But collapsed shortly thereafter
Because he met up with a savvy West Virginian.

I still have my own teeth,
My hearing's mostly unaided,
I still dream about girls
In white dresses with sashes,
But sometimes I feel
Out of sync and frustrated
When I wake up alone
And the fantasy crashes.
I didn't mind growing up,
But growing old's overrated.
