A talkative fellow who'll #jaw
About politics, science, and law,
Mostly has his facts wrong,
But starts arguments, long . . .
Which he "wins" via men made of straw.

I went shopping for something to eat.
With chicken and fish they’re replete.
They have plenty of peas,
And all manner of cheese,
But they really should beef up their meat.

Said a fellow, “Alas and alack,
My new pants are too #tight in the back
And the front of the waist.
(They were ordered in haste.)
I need someone to cut me some slack.”

An odd fellow who fell off a ledge,
Had been saved by an overgrown hedge.
"I was stoned. Tried to fly,"
Said the grateful young guy.
"Guess those drugs really are 'bleeding edge.'"

Playing poker, Neil felt like a heel.
But he gambled with passionate zeal,
Using cash that was meant
For the rent — ev’ry cent.
So his win was a very big deal.

Dear deer, you’re adorable, true.
But there’s one thing about you, I rue:
Your habit of munching
And supping and lunching
On fruit my hub’s hoping to chew.

Dearest Traitor, my problems are solved:
I have learned you are deeply #involved
In a scheme meant to screw me,
To sue and undo me.
You'll pay right on cue -- unabsolved!

Many people can NOT be persuaded
To rethink their convictions; they're jaded
By the lies they've been told
And relentlessly sold.
Unconvince them? That pipe dream's long faded.

Bad luck has befallen this snake,
Who’s upset by his jew’lry heist take!
His chagrin is immense
Cuz he called on his fence
And was told that his haul was all fake.

A young man in a needlepoint class
Took it merely to meet a cute lass.
But the gals all ignored 'im.
So suff'ring from boredom,
He needled "the teach" and passed gas.
