Tarnation Poems | Examples

by me kyle walker caycay son for fun not contest

Yosemite Sam
always stumbled upon a jam.
Each time he would yell ' tarnation.'  
Altercations most have caused elation.

What in tarnation is reincarnation
Could we come back as a piece of toast?
Or do you think that death is just that
The end, it's over, adios?

Some get passionate about the subject
But nobody knows for certain
When we finally take our very last breath
Is it really the final curtain?

Here's my humble opinion on the subject
It's over when the fat lady sings
But I'm open to other ideas on the subject
I wouldn't mind another fling

Guess this old guy is much too realistic
Watching shows bout the universe on TV
Can't believe how infinitesimal we are
As insignificant as a little old flea

So now you know my thoughts on the subject
Hope we can still all be friends
Maybe one day we'll find out the answer
When we finally come to the end

Tarnation

7/27/17


Going into light and dark places
With a steady pulse or as my heart races

What in tarnation
I see so much greed and starvation

Here to change the world
Whether or not using objects that are straight or curled
I'll still give it a whirl

Maintaining composure
It's far from over
But getting closer

Similar and varying degrees
The will to succeed
Knowing I shall bleed
I won't give up so long as I can still breathe

In and out of orbit
This is no horseshit
I'm not going to forfeit
I'm all game for it
Whether or not I have to use a forklift

Guess this old guy is much too realistic
Watching the space shows on TV
Can't believe how infinitesimal we are
As insignificant as a little old flea

So now you know my thoughts on the subject
Hope we can still all be friends
Maybe one day we'll find out the answer
When we finally come to the end
