Nobel Prize?

Jump-starting my brain to make an advance,

Reading Dirac, Weinberg, and Witten.

I was going to be studying all weekend long,

But wound up just brushing the kitten…

Set Me Free

I’d like to be working in my lab,

Or on a beach with an outdoor bar.

I’d like to be most anywhere,

Than in this legal seminar…

And Sammy Helped

As a younger man, I learned one way.

Efficient, simple and that was that.

Although, now I have come to understand,

One can’t fold laundry without a cat.

Back to Nature

Again we worry about nuclear war,

Killer robots, mass murder, insanity!

Shut out all the noise to join me,

Canoodling underneath this tree.

What Matter Wounds!

People were staring, car horns blaring,

Dogs barked with rising alarm.

Stopped to look around and saw,

Fresh blood streaming down my arm!

Expiration Date

10 – 12 hours each day at my job,

Just trying to stay inspired.

Hopefully, I’ll publish several more poems,

Before I am finally expired…

Sammy and I are not quite the same,

I am a human, she es el gato.

The thing however, we both love,

Is a tasty tuna taco!

With Sprinkles!

Mired in depression and corporate life,

All they want from me is to take, take, take.

My day did get a little brighter though,

Someone brought me a fresh cupcake!

Which Was?

He wrote those silly poems,

And made a few folks laugh.

The last thing that he ever wrote

Made a fitting epitaph.

Grow Up?

When I grow up, what should I be?

Fireman, doctor, scientist?

In all that time I never thought

That poet would be on my list.
