I can churn it out
with the best of them
I don't take the formulaic route
like the rest of them
I love getting paid
by a productivity rate
I don't worry at all
about the deadline date
I'm prolific
Can crank it out effortlessly
I got that ready-to-use story
in case of extreme urgency
If you need something written,
quick, flash, in a hurry
Plop the request on my desk,
and it's done lickety split, no worries
But I caution you now,
before you cruise by my office space
I'm not the tidiest person,
I tend to keep a lot of things out of place
Because I'm far too busy
to sweat the small details
The big picture is:
I write fast and I write well
I'm prolific
Can crank it out effortlessly
End of story
Is there anything else you need?

God Is Mightiest and Tidiest
Not only is God of all the mightiest
He to all of us is the always tidiest;
When He made our earth for sure
Was organized, arranged, and pure.
To good earth look at we have done;
With air pollution blocked out the sun
Also, His pure water we have polluted
For no one now will it be well-suited.
God for us only good things He meant;
Wanted earth to stay clean and decent;
Now we only love getting in our licks
On Route 66 while playing dirty politics.
Sticks and stones beat heck out of my bones
In dark or light sky all I see are drones;
All of our great plans Congress decimated;
To take their place dirty politics created.
Congress's practices are also poor as well;
Always being impractical and hard sell
And finally, in the we have lost all hope;
Worst of all they do think we are a dope.
So as I sit here my many poems writing,
Waiting for Congress to do something exciting
Of course fine friend and wouldn't you know
Can watch it live on Saturday Night Show.
