I've gone and shaved my head today
But allowed the monstrous beard to stay
I don't look like Jesus anymore,
I should get a job at a Harley store.

Yesterday's
Yesterday's poem is a bit late, but here it is- sent to a buddy of mine via text.
Jesse, now he's quite a runner
He actually finds nothing funner
Than pounding out miles
While remaining all smiles
Only stopping, for him, is a bummer.

Cliff Dreams
I've been watching the rock climbers,
those lizards on YouTube,
slinking up cliffs
as fast as I'd slide down lubed.
My soda-straw arms
just need a little work
so give me a few months-
I'll be a cliff-monkey too.

In Washington
Pushing for power
On our growing tabs and
Living like kings, they're
Inventing new problems
To fix to their credit.
Instead of just
Culling the waste
In the system, they're
All about finding a
New way to
Spread it.

You're Fired
In case you haven't heard
Lay off the scotch McChrystal,
Do you have no common sense?
Rolling Stone's around your neck
And you're in the river, friend!
He may not have experience-
I know I've got a beef-
But if I worked for Barack Hussein
I wouldn't bad-mouth the Chief!

Tired
I know it's short
but please don't weep
I really need
to get some sleep.

Not Again!
I'm getting so tired of the limerick
They're all over this site, it's just sick
But they're simple to write
So I think I just might
Turn this verse into somewhat of a trick.

Grill Day
Sunday's been grill day
Or "cook meat for the week day"
Over hot charcoal

Late Night Coffee
What in the world was I thinking
Going to Dunkin' and drinking
Iced coffee so late
To help the blueberry cake
Reach it's tomb by tastefully sinking?

Short Psalm
Sometimes I like to harp on things
But get so tangled in the strings.

Ashley and Woody
The ash-heap said to the woodpile
"I used to look just like you,
"But folks in the winters
"Made powder from splinters
"Buddy, I'm gray as a goose!"
The woodpile replied to the ash-heap
With just what he wisely discerned,
"You were had by a flame-
"My friend, it's a shame,
"But face it, you've really been burned!"

The Push-Reel Mower
In an effort to be green
(Or maybe just save some)
I got an old fashioned mower
Its a workout, and then some
No motor, no gas,
No emission of smog
But I cut off the leg
Of an innocent frog!
So much for curbing
My carbon emission
PETA now hates me
Like a beef-eating vegan.

Cheap Diet
I have a neighbor who works in his yard
With no shirt and he shows off his lard
If I get fat and want food
I'll just stare at the dude
Cause the sight will make eating quite hard.

Seats
Solid as a rock
Hard as one too, but comfy
Adirondack chairs

Temps
The weather up north
Has been eerily freak
With 40's and 90's
Within the same week.

Plugged in Again
He came and went, the cable guy,
And now our geeky spirits fly
The oasis of the internet
Is at our fingertips again
I cruise on through the carpal tunnel
Splashing through the data puddles
Scroll, scroll, scroll- click, click, click
Google's brain is being picked.

Busy
Too many hobbies
There must be a sacrifice
But that will take time

Still Web-less
Time Warner, here's some advice
If your service is to be worth the price
Show up when you say
And stop the week-long delays
Your customers will find it quite nice.

Harmony and Irony
Lines that don't rhyme
Are never a crime
But it sure makes them
More fun to read

Gettin' Hitched
My rhyme-a-day has gone astray
But there's no need to fret
Tomorrow morning the cable guy
Will hitch us up to internet.
