Being Human

A golden made tank but with a small leak
among one’s nature’s crew, mistakes still speak
speed of perfection is slow
on morals, will always owe
on a board so white a faint ink can sneak.

Human Life

Were an anomaly that amazes 
Our life and all of its phases
Wonderful creator, 
I guess I'll meet him later.
When up my spirit raises.

start the bidding

While D.T.'s old image was bold
His weird rants seem hoary and cold
If campaign funds fade
The next asset trade
Is having Melania sold

Why would he throw away caution?
Seems like he’s got brain exhaustion
While human slave trade  
Appears retrograde
This artifice needs an auction

Laughter In School

When laughter was heard in the hall,
The principle thought it was gall.
When down fell his britches,
The class burst in stitches.
The principle burst through the wall.


Refer to Twain's statement: The human race has but one really affective weapon, and that is laughter.

Bath Salts

There once was a guy who was crazy
Took bath salts to make him not lazy
Bad trip to say the least
Human flesh was a feast
Dead carcass was pushin' up daises

Face It!

The forces of nature are odd
So is that why we invent god? 
Our deity’s norm
Seems to be human form
And reflects this silly facade

Techno Take-Over

TECHNO TAKE-OVER

Technology says we’re on the brink
of human assistance being extinct
our jobs robots will do
fake people serving you
freakishly knowing each thought we think

Man Vs. Nature

Man versus Nature, who will win?

Almighty nature or man with his sin

Which one will want it more?

Who will settle the score?

Let the colossal battle begin!

God's Redemption

We saw in the garden the seed
Planted by man’s first evil deed
God sent his own son
To be the right one
To absorb sin so man be freed

Inane and Insane - Or Is It the Other Way Around

A sub human waste dump named Pence
Has thoughts that defy common sense 
And who wants this chump?
The assinine Trump
Who thinks with his rump so immense

What is something uproarious?
Her plan to be victorious
Who must to us speak
Since democracy’s Greek?
Hilarious Clintorius!

Laugh At First Sight

There was a guy who itched for a fight
Wanting to beat the first man in sight
But let his guard down
As he faced a clown
And then laughed for the rest of the night


The human race has but one really effective weapon, and that is laughter

What Choice??

You insist that I only choose one
Finite human or god in the sun
Man has long pondered this
But as to my wish
I'll face death and have ALL the fun!!

The Malarial Sporozoite

My mom and dad met in the gut of an insect!  	
As a kid, I was packed in a sac not so perfect;	
When I am mature,	
I make myself sure	
To infect a human when the insect does inject

Don Johnson

Don Johnson pens from his far south berth 
insightful poems tinctured with mirth 
Of human foibles, plights 
and Aussie nights he writes; 
all while dangling down under the earth.

My Wife Laura Bunks Down On the Floor

My wife Laura bunks down on the floor
"Sorry you have no sexual spore"
She says, her eight legs up
"You're a mere human pup"
"I  know sure some troubles are in store"

Hi-Five Hug

Written by Gail DeBole on
March 10, 2020

An elephant in Zimbabwe
Hi-fived with a soft trunky sway.
Then wanting to play
She continued her day
With a hug for the human who waved.

Limerick: Once Professors of Philosophy

Limerick: Once Professors of Philosophy

Once Professors of Philosophy
Came together to solve human folly
Each defended his birth
In his school of thought’s worth
So with fisticuffs they split hairs to flee!
