Short Touting Poems

Mike Huckabee,
a presidential wanna be.
Former governor and preacher man,
is touting his "Fair Tax" plan.

When James Bond had Pussy Galore
Moneypenny slammed shut the door
MI's telephones
Broadcast Pussy's moans
Touting British esprit de corps!...

There was a young math whiz named Egbert
Who fancied himself a tax expert
Touting tax tips he tried
Till terribly tongue-tied
Never more will he overexert...

Timothy Tolliver Tines
Taught tax topics twenty times
Touting tax tips he tried
Till terribly tongue-tied
Twisted tongue tending to twine

A scoundrel slithering all about.
Touting your own horn.
Immoral eccentricity.
Through prisms of false bravado.
A shallow soul.
Skeletons with no depth.
Humanitarian rights violations.
A skirmish of power.
Strong arming the weak.
Wrecked souls landing on the beach....

Grace is the right balance
of humor, tact, and wit.

Touting propriety
couth and civility.

Innocence with a tinge
of righteous arrogance. 

Genteel fluidity
in dress and decorum.

It’s the epitome
of femininity.

Autumn flaunts

splendiferous

colors

rich earthy tones

gilded in gold leaf.

Scarlets and
 
yellows

form Nature's

finest

works of art

as Autumn

weaves a tapestry

of orange and crimson

leaves

touting fall’s beauty.

Brush strokes paint angst:
Ink running out;
Tell on dry banks,
Touting vain shouts;
End game in sight,
Restless woes sling.
Dead to the light,
Ideas miss spring;
Alarm bells scream,
Leap out of dread;
Opt then sour cream,
Glance at the dead;
Urgent our woes,
Etch overflow!

Tony the tiger you are sassy and loud
You make us happy with Kellogg, completely proud
You dance your way into the hearts of children galore.
Making their mothers take them to the cereal store.

Tony the tiger, you have been around for some time.
You like taking dollars from people who used to buy with a dime.
You have been touting corn flakes since 1954.
Isn’t it time for a respite for the tiger next door?...

There once was an old geezer named bob
who loved to munch on corn on the cob
but since he wore false teeth
kernels got underneath
and so he'd turn them down with a sob.


Sitting on the can he read an add
touting a brand new fancy doodad 
so he pulled up his pants
got some dental implants
and chomps more corn than he ever had.

Pelosi showed she's totally unfit

   And cares about common folk not one whit

      When touting Obama Care,

         Said with her usual flair:

            "Ya gotta read it to see what's in it!"
