Short Smarten Poems

Seeing an immature fellow acting the fool
Say it like it is, “got shoes older than you”
Smarten up me buckeroo
Your jeans are full of poop
It's been suggested you go back to school...

SO NOW we get warm summer weather!!!
Can't all the weather gods get together
Probably have a crystal ball
Think it needs an overhaul
If they don't smarten up, gonna beat 'em with some leather...

When I look in the mirror each morning
This strange dude stands there sending me a warning
Smarten up there dude
Stop acting like a boob
Or a big lump on the head you'll be adorning

Where are we headed, is a silver lining in sight
At the current pace, we'll be over the precipice before night
It's already dusk
Smarten up we must
Before a certain lunatic precipitates an extinguishing of the lights...

Bang! Bang! Thump! Thump!
Went the drums of life
down, down upon your head

Bang your dead! If you
Don’t smarten up
Huh! Huh! Sugar ain’t
What it used to be

Don’t you see, it’ll eventually
catch up and then we’ll see
What’s it gonna be?
Don’t tell me you tried

Cos that’s just no good
I’m tired of the you
should! Cos you know
What?

Bang ! Bang!...

Why with the
proliferation of nuclear arsenals
of a global scale
it seems as if
it's inevitable.
Someone eventually
has to drop
another nuclear bomb.
It appears that
it's only a
matter of time.
Why else would
there be so many
scattered around the earth?
Not to mention
all of the Wars
that continue on & on.
You would think
that human kind
would smarten up
and put an end
to all these atrocities....
