Rebellious nonestablishmentarian Pennsylvania Yankee

Rebellious nonestablishmentarian Pennsylvania Yankee...
honored at freedom fête
of course in my dreams
where Tony the Tiger
roars Matthew Scott Harris 
ranks as one hip cat gr-r-eat
showcasing adroitness
with ability to turn a phrase
evident if we could arrange a tête-à-tête
where immortality doth  wait.

Pacifist bard of Perkiomen Valley
regaled at Alpine Fellowship conclave
regarding erosion of Democratic rights grave
alarming usurpation of power

Yankee Go Home!!

Greenland will be our posh winterland plaza
Blueprints unfold for a Riviera Gaza
Just hot air baloneyism
Or old-fashioned colonialism?
Panamanians shout leave! Viva la Raza!

Can you read me?
Y2K
The year 2000's on the way
The new millennium's almost here
To write January 1, 2000 will be weird
Star Trek's beam me up Scottie was
A far out idea
But now the space shuttle goes up
Several times a year
The crew of seven went up that day
(don't look up to watch it burn)
they had no fear, now

Yankee Doodle

    Rensselaer New York, penned the nursery rhyme Yankee Doodle. This was used to mock

Yankee Doodle In King Joe B's Court

Feathered hat, fife and drum
    Doodle's entrance a smash
  Though in the air, all around him
    float sweet marijuana and hash

  'Young lady,' begins Doodle - O, the naivete!
    'I'm a he not a she,' the young thing announces
  'Are you non-binary, (you)

Yankee Poodle

Yankee Doodle bought a poodle
But it was a donkey
Went back to the pet shop
And said this ’ere dog is wonky 

    Fetch the donkey from my car
    Get a poodle handy
    That’s no poodle in my car
    You’ve had too much Brandy

A Yankee Doodle Senior

I'm a Yankee Drooling Senior
Trousers pulled up nipple high
Food stains on my shirt and in my hair
Happy but I don't know why

Got to see my family doctor
Really painful when I pee
All you people hear me farting
Better hide the children
Cause I am about to let one fly



(To the tune of Yankee Doodle Dandy.
Apologies to George M.

Yankee Doodle Dandy

Yankee Doodle Dandy

It’s where I’ve fallen and where I lay.
Ashes to ashes, cradle to grave,
Where drums roll and the fife is played.

Where the bell tolls, it tolls for me.
Dust to dust, pray tell, “It’s Liberty!—
It’s Yankee Doodle Dandy.”

It’s where I lie and where I’ll be
When they come to bury me.
Cover me, and let me rest

Yankee Doodle Detonated

Brave young men, missions of laughter

          Returnees ~ wounded ever after

Yankee Doodle Returns To Town

Yankee Doodle
had a poodle,
and its name was Tony.
He fed this dog on fish and chips
and lots of macaroni.

Yankee Doodle
lacks a poodle.
Now he has a terrier.
Every day it learns new tricks.
The more it learns, the merrier.

Yankee Doodle One-Upped

A rich couple went to see two pedigree French poodles

   Sorry, no poodles for sale -- they're busy playing canoodle

(Alternately titled always look on the bright side of life)

Armageddon would be morbidly amazing,
   concluding (reign of *****Sapiens)
   fascinating albeit simultaneously catastrophic boon
dog gull to accompany

   foolish faux rabbit, yup you reddit

The Yankee Game

I watched the Yankee game until
I couldn't stay awake
(Though flipping back to C.S.I.,
A habit I can't break).

So when I heard that they had won
It wasn't a surprise,
'Cause they were in the lead around
The time I closed my eyes.

I felt for all the Cleveland fans
Who witnessed their team lose.
It's hard to swallow that defeat 
At home,

At Yankee Stadium

I stared at all the jerseys
Worn by Yogi, Mickey, Lou,
The Babe and Derek Jeter,
Thurman Munson, Roger, too…

And I realized all these Yankees,
Those alive and those who’ve died,
Wore those uniforms, no matter when,
With dignity and pride.

For so many baseball players,
Playing ball was all they knew.
They were lucky that success rewarded
What they loved to do.
