Finding Humanity

Don’t make assumptions and have a real talk

About anything at all, and only walk

If politics comes up, yes whisk away

Since that is the talk we have every day.

You might discover, as this writer did

That people are nice with politics rid.

It’s Complicated

So here are two pieces, make you wonder…

Of course the world is going asunder.

On this hand don’t be passive aggressive

On that it’s nice folks who are impressive.

So how do you balance between the two?

Criticize nicely and make sure it’s true.

And That’s If You’re Lucky

Oh it goes fast, that much is for certain

And there is no mystery behind the curtain.

Death and taxes, that’s what all the folks say

Are the two things that just don’t go away.

And death, for sure, that’s what the facts is…

But loads of people don’t pay their taxes!

Harsh Comedown

Okay, the guy was in a coma, see

Having overdosed on some Ecstasy

So he must have been feeling pretty swell

The last he remembered, under that spell.

Then coming down what a bummer to find

That some of your organs are being mined…!

Come Mister Tally Man

With all the media madness these days

Those politics and the election craze

Sometimes the real news is never revealed

And life’s critical issues stay concealed.

I mean, who knew about this game changer?

Our BANANA supply was in danger!

Um… Tequila?

So the government wants more babies born

And comes up with plans that are really forlorn.

Minivans and diapers? Yeah, THAT sets the mood!

Makes everyone want to get instantly nude…

If they want a policy people will use,

They should distribute a whole ton of booze.

And I’ve Always Had A Job

It’s a question that always makes me squirm
As if by asking they want to affirm
Your place in the world and yes your status
On that complicated social lattice.
It’s just so lazy, a boring dude’s ploy…
Much better to ask what do you enjoy?

Do It for the Plot

For those of you blessed with a teenage kid

It’s good fun to put on a flat brim lid

And bust out some words you heard on TikTok

Sending that kid into mortified shock.

Flash your dope rizz and act like a baller…

You’re not skibidi or some old crawler!

Let Sleeping Dodos Lie

I think once a species has gone extinct
You probably do not want to be linked
To any effort for its revival.
I mean, let’s talk about survival…
If you have ever seen Jurassic Park
You know that cloning can get pretty dark.

Living Legends

When it comes to agents helping those in distress
You don’t normally think of the IRS.
But this guy’s a legend, goes above and beyond
And has created a really special bond
That goes past the audits, numbers and zeros
Making him one of America’s heroes.
