Totie Fields

The holidays would leave no room
for cutting calories.

Totie Fields,
we laughed a ton.

Not a breeze to go from two twenty
to two nineteen,

the wise guy comedienne
would surmise.

DarkSkin Baby
A beautiful baby
A regular baby just like you and I

DarkSkin Baby
An intelligent baby
All A’s cus she a real wise-guy

DarkSkin Baby
A bullied baby
No one likes her black skin

DarkSkin Baby
An oppressed baby
But she has much love from within

Hey You Tableau

Hey you! tableau 

            Over here, quick zoom
            Film me, not the moon 
             Ignore that, barn owl
            Wise guy, big eyed fowl
              Shut up, crater head
           I just snapped, then fled

In a Fix

we may be somewhat immune
to the seeming randomness of fate
but near and dear ones opine otherwise
so do their emotes cause our heart to agitate

if we remain nonchalant which in truth we are
indifferent is deemed to be our attitude
whilst if we pretend to collaborate
it’s but an insincere platitude

such are unsolvable dilemmas we face every day
who’s the wise guy who said earth life is mere play

The Foreign Student

The Foreign Student

By Elton Camp

Ahamed’s command of English wasn’t so good
But to make a fine impression, he did all he could

He walked up to one of his professors in the hall
It was the South, so he nicely said, “Howdy y’all.”

“To be a member of your class is a great delight.
I overheard some students praise you last night.”

“They said you’re so smart, you don’t have to try.
It just comes naturally for you to be a wise guy.”

Captcha Character Preview Slurs

-------*To be read in true Italian Mafia voice....--------

I wanna meet the wise guy.
You know, the pai·san gettin' cute with the Soup!

Cuz' the CAPTCHA preview characters keep throwin' me insults
like GOOF,
DOOF,
and POOP!

At foiwst', no offense was really taken...
'till the vulgarities became evident to me;
and this schmuck starts slappin' insults at me
like: PMSR,
 VAGP, 
and U 8  ET
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*(all characters are based upon actual characters given to me on the soup)

I Just Don'T Get English

It is pointless to write with dull pencils
When a pen keeps the sheep safe at night.

And water can flow from a hole in the ground
As long as the spring’s not too tight.

Cargo is sent from a shipyard
But a shipment can go out by car.

A wise man is often superior
But a wise guy is usually subpar

Tonight I will drive down the parkway,
Yet park in the driveway at home.

No wonder I can’t speak this language
It only makes sense in a poem!
