I DID BRAIN SURGERY, ON MY DAYS OFF

I became a kid doctor, like Doogie Hauser, but I did not train,

I decided to start at the top, by operating on the brain,

For just a couple of buck,

I'd do a quick nip and tuck,

I now run my own brain center in Maine.

HOW I WIDEN MY HIPS

Outside it was lightning and rainy,

And I didn't feel like being brainy,

So I got out some chips,

To widen my big hips,

Watched Housewives, while eyeballs got strainy.

DRINKING WITH MONSTERS WITH RUNT

There was a bloody, forest beast, who lived behind my chicken shack,

And, every one of my neighbors, swears he did them, an attack,

So, the beast I had to hunt,

Took my hunting dog, named Runt,

We tracked the beast to the pub, he bought a round, so we kicked back.

THE FRAMING OF THE SHREW

I painted a picture of a little tiny shrew,

I did not have a frame, so that day I had to rue,

So, I built a frame myself,

Used the wood from an old shelf,

I still couldn't hang the picture, because I had no screw.

LOOK AT WHAT THE OLD WITCH DID

There was an old witch who lived up on the hill,

Every fall, all the pretty flowers they'd kill,

Then when the plants were all bare,

Cold came in the air,

And, blankets of snow were laid down everywhere.

WHEN PETER DID PINE FOR WINE

Mr. Peter got angry, alcoholic piney,

When the bar cut him off from his red winey,

So, he went home to his loft,

Put on music, real soft

Then guzzled wine from his two-quart, beer steiny.

OH CRAP, ANOTHER TOURIST TRAP

I went on a paid safari to see lions, tigers and more,

All I saw were just house cats, barn cats, and a small bore,

I just saw kitties, and walking bacon,

For ten bucks, I felt very taken,

But instead of getting a refund, I was tossed out the front door.

Benny was not warm,

When it started to storm,

He was not home at dorm

And, Benny failed to inform,

His RA named Norm.

BUGS AND TEARS

I thought the bugs were lying there dead but they were only sleeping,

When in the morn the room started to warm, the bugs began a creeping,

They crept up my cloths,

And into my nose,

Then tears full of bugs I was weeping.

THE PIZZA DEAD FISH POEM

I WENT TO MARS WITHOUT A SPACECRAFT OR LIPS

My spaceship disassembled, but I kept traveling into space,

A disaster it resembled, as I gnawed my lips from my face,

My trajectory took me toward the stars,

All that stopped me was planet mars,

Soon I was making friends, among the Martian race.

AI REPLACED ME

I went to answer the front door, and it was AI,

It claimed my job and my home, and told me "bye, bye",

It claimed my spouse and my kids,

On my dog, it took bids,

I now eat tadpoles from a ditch, while thinking peach pie.

The delivery service made a drop,

The packages were leaking,

A refund I was seeking,

Online AI put my request on stop.

PEANUT BUTTER, JAM AND JELLY

IS YOUR AI RIGHT IN THE HEAD?

I gave money to my favorite, charity cause,

It is for AI's who often freeze up, and brain pause,

When an AI suffers great stress,

It answers queries with a guess,

Then has a brain freeze, or breaks privacy laws.

SAD ANDY'S CHICKEN DINNER, AND CALL

So, Andy gives me this call,

I guess he was lonely, that's all,

He said he was sitting all alone,

Eating chicken off the bone,

Then he whimpered, and started to ball.

BREAKFAST IS SO HARD

I wanted a breakfast sandwich, but did not have any ham,

I had no eggs or bacon; all I had was goat cheese and jam,

I called my sweetie, dearest mother,

To see if she had peanut butter,

But all she said she had to eat, was some rancid juice of clam.

A GOAT STORY

He chews gravel out next to the curb,

Other roughage he avoids,

Because of hemorrhoids,

Which gravel doesn't seem to disturb.

Although, I ain't found one yet,

That doesn't poop in my suits.

I EAT OUT, IN MY CAR

Eating beans and rice, instead of tofu and kale.

MY MEALS ARE UNMEMORABLE

Mr. Bunny eats sweet apple fritters,

Mr. Bear eats apex, meaty critters,

My food is such a bore,

It's from the liquor store,

It's always the same, gin and bitters.

THE GOOD EARTH IS FLAT?

If our planet is flat like a board,

One could reap a substantial reward,

For a vacation that's cheap,

One just digs extra deep,

It beats driving all day in mom's Ford.

Some say Santa went to a barber, and had his bug beard sheared.

I GOT MY LICENCE, SO I'M NOT ON THE BOTTOM

In jail I'd be a boohoo sad, dude.

PSYCHOPATH RUINED MY LIFE

SNAKES MIGHT SQUIRM, BUT THEY AIN'T NO WORM

At the hospital, I got a toe tag I.D. card.

DANGEROUS JOURNEYS

Although I got electrocuted when I gave them just a touch,

I didn't deserve stranding,

I was picked up by a stranger, and got Edgar Allen Poed.

I pickup plastic for nickels, to eat canned corn off the cob.

THE BRAIN SCIENTIST OUTSMARTED ME

A famous brain scientist showed up, just outside of my front door,

I couldn't afford one with an engine, should have sold my brains for more.

I AM A CRIMINAL INVESTIGATIVE REPORTER

Like the two bears in the woods,

Who ate Ridding Hoods,

I exposed them with the bones, I found in their poop.

THE AI OCCUPATION

The artificial intelligence took away my cup of green tea,

The artificial intelligence said the tea hurt my efficiency,

Then it played a marching song,

Insisted I march along,

And, because the AI sensed defiance, it took away all my TP.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IS A VERY REAL JERK

The AI kicked me off the internet, and made me eat purple potatoes,

I was only allowed to eat tubular food, and not the sauce of tomatoes,

AI was asserting control,

Without an obvious end game goal,

The thing that I am developing real fast, is a a case of the AI hateos.

MY HAUNTED HOUSE

No life forms live in my house,

Not a fly or rat or mouse,

All fear the host,

For it is a ghost,

With a demon spirit for a spouse.

MY FOOD IS COMPLICATED

My peppermint plant wilted and died,

It sat in the sun, I guess it's vitals got fried,

My cabbage got the worms, 

With that I've come to terms,

But, my rhubarb ran to the forest to hide.
