I'm a poet

I haven't writ
In quite a bit.
So here I'll sit
And think on it.

I thunk about it
And I doubt it.
To write's a pain
And quite inane.
Darn my brain,
I'm quite insane.
I try to write
But have the blight.
I cannot write
And so, in spite
Of what I thunk
I'll only plunk
One word or two,
(no more than two)
Then say adieu.
So here's the words:

"Sacre bleu!"

Aaron, did I spell that right?
Or should I say,
To save the day,
"Oh golly, Dang!
Misspelled again!"

  2. I tried to do my own poem inspired from yours but I didn't make it very far.... It's for Danielle concerning a conversation we had.

    It ain't no picnic
    without our cynic!

  3. And who, pray, is the curmudgeon?
    The one who bludgeoned
    Every word and every phrase
    That passed your lips in days
    Long past
    Even when you had not asked
    For criticism
    Or solipsism.
    Who corrected your grammar
    Your spelling, your . . .
    Oh heck. That's enough, already.
    Twas I.
    Oh fie!
