Freed from its cell in the hive
T-rumposaurus comes alive
This monster is back 
And plans to attack
With project twenty twenty-five

Like Us

humans share twenty-five percent 
of our genes with rice. 
does that make us cannibals
when we call-in take-out Chinese?

Progression To Happiness

One hundred first dates, 
seventy five second dates, 
fifty retakes, 
twenty five out takes, 
all to equal, 
one mistake, 
then,
one forever keepsake.

Premium Member arithmetic melody

five's were easy
five, ten, fifteen, twenty, twenty-five, thirty
the nine’s should have been easy too
but they are not as jazzy to sing
18, 27, 36, 45
awkward melody

You

I met you
Running one day
Wish I’d withdrew.

Instead, I’d stay
For twenty-five years
While you’d betray

And cause tears
But now, phew:
Dear heart disappears!

Everytown, Usa

Children whom the schools can’t teach,
Nor the courts can’t reach—
Parents give up, too;
Children for awhile survive,
Later when they’re twenty-five,
Some wear prison blue.

Premium Member That Teenage Girl Scowl

Doris had not seen that teenage girl scowl for over twenty-five years
But here it was again,
Staring down her mother
Her daughter asked Doris, “Have you ever seen such a face?”
She could not stop laughing.

Another Day In Pa

with gas prices soaring
I’m no longer mooring

I’m becoming my parents
without twenty-five cents

where I live use to be mines
sinkholes appear with no fines

just another day in PA
no sinkholes here so I’ll play

Brother for sale twenty five cents.
Sister is in the free box. Come get her.
She comes with toys and a red balloon.

Sadie has been singing this song for fifty years.
No takers yet.
But she is buying bigger boxes.

For My Grandmother Catherine

Twenty-five years
of saying the Rosary

Twenty-five years
a promise to keep

A last dying wish
her beads in my hand

Not one day I’ve missed 
— or one restless sleep

Funnel

Twenty-two is a shitty Thing. No age left to look forward To, the slow decline steepens As your brakes quickly go out. Oh. How could I Forget? My Insurance Goes up at Twenty-five. I Cannot Wait.

Missing Touch

.

Two hours and twenty five minutes
                    my love
          your fingers to mine

           The heavens above
          the eyes which watch

                  our smiles
          ourn fingers entwined

Let

I begged you
let me
be my true fate
be twenty - sharp as a knife
be black on white
be air for a man
be twenty-five  - the pure baby cry
be half way there - light.

And you let
and there's nothing
I wouldn't bear
for your sake

The Real Deal

Vegas
betting
playing
blackjack

i've got
an ace
of spades
and a jack

of spades
but say 
actually
plead

hit me
the dealer does
and yet another
spade it is a four

i walk away
smiling
i wanted
to see

twenty-five

Premium Member Uh Oh

Subtle, a swanky sweet swan-themed restaurant in Cincinnati
Accidentally took evening reservations for a hundred and three
Unfortunately, their capacity limit is twenty-five and a half
The booking agent got fired, which reduced the staff

friends and comrades till today
when t-rump made another stupid move by...
imposing a twenty-five% tax on canadian sourced goods
and if this is how tyranasaurus-rump treats close allies then fu-k him...

There was once a man named Barnaby Lars

     Who had spent twenty-five years behind bars

          Now it ain't what you might think

                    At Clancy's Saloon smoking fine cigars
