Trigger Warning

The tired old man wishes he was dead,

And tried to put a bullet through his head.

He missed, but before you begin to gloat,

That .454 went straight through his throat.

Tiny Tragedy

A kitten leapt upon my bed,

That kitten landed on my head.

Tiny claws carved furrows in my brow,

I cried out, “Why?” and Sammy said “Mao?”

Standing Alone

This Life is hard and I’m so weary,

Don’t want to play this game any more.

Darkness will likely win this battle,

And I am very close to losing the war.

Got my tuna,

Got my spoon-a.

Sammy says, “Get out,

You big baboon-a!

The Seven Seas

Sammy became the Pirate King,

Sailing to ports near and far.

Sailors trembled when they spotted her ship,

And heard her mighty “Meearrrgh.”

Tonight we simply could not agree,

Me for dogs, Sammy for tuna.

But thanks to pretzels and kitty snacks,

We won’t be starving very soona.

September?

Sammy and I love fall weather,

Chilly evenings, fuzzy sweaters and naps.

So why is the temperature over 80 degrees?

Is the weather playing us for saps?

Sorry, Jed

There are lots of things I get to say,

Scientific theories, poems about froggies.

But there has been a severe shortage of times,

When I can sit back and go, “Woo doggies!”

Trade-Off

Ditching all my chores for now,

Today is just for Sammy and me.

Knowing I’ll work twice as hard tomorrow,

For the moment, I’m feeling so free.

In a Recliner

Crossing the room, like a kaiju stomping Tokyo,

Watching all the city folk flee,

I know it’s silly, but I still wonder,

Does Godzilla ever pretend to be me?
