MY TIME MACHINE BROKE DOWN

My time machine broke down in the late middle ages,

That was the most backward of human historical stages,

They over used the word "hath",

And, no one at all took a bath,

So, they all stunk be they kings, squires or pages.
 

THE CINNAMON BUN AND MY STAIN

I served punch in my fanciest bowl,

In the bottom the bowl had a hole,

That's where my punch would drain,

On ma's carpet, it left a big stain,

I took comfort with a cinnamon roll.

MY COLD ZONE FROSTY CONE

I had but one small frosty cone,

I saved it for a heatwave yet unknown,

Then when the temps made a big jump,

And heated up my small dump,

My cone put me in the coolest cold zone.

YOUR TRAILER, MY FAILURE, YOU LOSE

Well, I have some really bad news,

In your trailer I put in the wrong fuse,

I didn't expect all the fire,

From every electrical wire,

I'm sure the charred rubble you'll want to peruse.

THE CLOUD SWIMMER

Carrie the fish swam up in the clouds,
She swam way up there to avoid all the crowds,
For space she didn't vie,
It was quiet in the sky,
The packed ocean had a bad case of the clouds.

THE MICHIGAN OMNIVORE

In Michigan for a meal to score,
You must become an omnivore,
With finances unkind,
You eat what you find,
On the dirt, the bush or, the floor.

FAILURE TO TOOT TOOT

I had a little commute,

To the concert hall to play my toot toot,

But to my despair,

Nobody was there,

It seems the promoter had got the boot boot.

BREAKFAST POST ROAST URINE

I went to do an internet post,

While in thought I burned my toast,

It was my last slice of bread,

That was not stale, moldy dead,

My coffee tastes like a urinal roast.

I'M OFF TO THE YONDER PLACE

I'm off to the yonder place,

Where the deer and the antelope mace,

And, the bears and the cougars,

Fight turf wars with their Luger's,

It's still far better than the human race. 

 

FLOWERS FOR THE HUT

I found a flower on the back of my place,

It was so pretty looking most like white lace,

It was too pretty to cut,

To class up my crud hut,

So, dandelions dress up my home base.

EARTH DAY, BIRTHDAY AND POPCORN

It weren't even May,

When I had my Earth Day,

It was on my birthday,

So at home I did stay,

Watching movies, I had to pay,

Eating popcorn from a tray,

On the bean bag where I lay.

Kissed a boyfriend, he named Ray,

So I guess, I must be gay,

Ordered salad, I got hay,

Then went swimming in the bay.

EARTH DAY IS FOR ALIEN ACCOUNTANTS

Earth Day is when on the planet earth,
Alien accountants visit to count every resource,
To tell their home worlds what the planet is worth,
And, what type of trade rules to enforce,

The earth is then bundled and mortgaged and wrapped,
In various financial market makers,
But, someday all the earth’s resources will be taped,
By the alien world resource big takers,

But, what happens when the resources are gone,
And, the mortgage bundles loose all their wraps,
When there is nothing left to steal or to pawn,
Then there will be galactic economic collapse.

ANGEL FISH HAIKU

Angel fish, beauty,
Swim, filter, stuck, poor angel,
Angel fish, heaven.

BOOK BURNING FOR FRED

Fred went to the outhouse and Fred's books were gone,

They were collected and burned by some government spawn,

Fred felt really blue,

With nothing to do,

He fell asleep on his seat until dawn.

WHERE THE WILD THINGS LIVE (NEXT DOOR)

My neighbors went feral again,🐺🐅🐅🐶🐱🐘🐂🐗

They ate all my pigeons and kin,👩‍👩‍👧‍👧👩‍👦‍👦👩‍👧👨‍👦‍👦👩‍👩‍👧‍👧

They ate my sugar and molasses,🎂🍰

Wiped my carpet with their asses,💩💩💩💩

And gnawed holes in my meats cased by tin.🥫🥫

DRAGNET FOR MY FISHING POLE

I walked out on the dock and what did I pass?

A giant, a record, an enormous rock bass,

But, my pole was at the cabin, not out on the dock,

I took it to the cabin when I listened to Bach,

So, I ran back to the cabin to look for my pole,

I looked under the chairs and in every floor hole,

But, my fishing pole was not to be found,

I remembered I left it somewhere on the ground,

Alas, I sent the kids out in a fish pole dragnet,

And, one of them found it so expectations were met,

Then, another found my worms so; I knew I was set,

Next, I ran out on the dock to see if my bass was there yet,

Then, just as I saw that big rock bass in the bay,

He heard my running vibrations and swam fast away,

So, I fished off the dock for the rest of the day,

While, minnows tugged on my worm, trying to bait me to play. 

BEARD FULL OF BUGS LIMERICK

Jason had a beard full of  bugs,
He tried scratching and giving his hairs  tugs,
The bugs would itch and bite,
Jason could not sleep at night,
He shaved and the critters fell on the rugs

A SEPTIC TANK IN TURMOIL

When the bathtub gurgles and the septic gets perky,🛀🚽

When the sink backs up with water that's smelly and murky,💩

Then, you call for the truck,☎🚒

To get your septic tank a suck,⛲💦

Now, the drains in your home will all worky,😁

I WENT SALMON FISHING IN THE SPRING? LIMERICKS

I went salmon fishing early this spring,
I was pulled in like a real ding-a-ling,
The fish pulled me down river,
The cold gave me a shiver,
I don't know if it was a coho or king.

I went salmon fishing in the early spring,
But, salmon run in the fall and that's the thing,
I did get my wish,
I hooked a big fish,
He yanked my arm off and my gold ring.

I went salmon fishing in the spring,
I hooked onto a big log or some other big thing,
I had very bad luck,
My bait would not come unstuck,
My line broke and made a loud ping.

IT RAINED ON MY SNOWMAN ARMY PARADE

Down the rain kept coming and washed my snowman army all away,

I was going to invade the neighbor's rhubarb patch on the first full day of May,

With winter labors I made 

My snowmen on parade,

Now, I'll have to start over with clay.
