Abusement Park: Ken Nesbitt
We went to an amusement park,
my family and I.
We rode on rides so scary,
I expected I would die.
We rode a roller coaster
called The Homicidal Comet.
It had so many loop-de-loops
it nearly made us vomit.
We rode The Crazed Tornado,
and it jerked us hard and quick.
If it were any longer,
we would certainly be sick.
We rode The Psycho Octopus,
which packed a nasty punch.
I think we’re pretty lucky
that we didn’t lose our lunch.
And last we rode repeatedly
The Flailing Tilt-a-Whirl.
It shook us all so sharply,
I’m surprised we didn’t hurl.
I haven’t felt that nauseous
since I can’t remember when.
I’m really looking forward
to the day we go again.
How Many Doofuses Does It Take to Screw In a Lightbulb? Ken Nesbitt
http://www.gigglepoetry.com/poem.aspx?PoemID=34&CategoryID=2
One to bring the hammer,
One to start the drill,
One to haul the ladder,
One to hold it still.
One to buy a light bulb,
One to drop and break it,
One to buy another,
One to stop and shake it.
One to say: "It’s good!"
One to say: "It’s not!"
One to stop the argument.
One to mark the spot.
One to call the neighbor,
One to lend the wrench,
One to wash the ceiling,
One to move the bench.
One to build a scaffold,
One to test its strength,
One to measure height,
One to measure length.
One to bring the iodine,
One to call the doc,
One to flick the switch—
And one to take the shock.
I'm a girl born in the wrong decade. I belong in the 1960s or the 1970s in my opinion. I bleed tie dye, my theme music is anything 1960s rock or 1970s rock or metal. I'm a hippie through and through. But also a hippie who loves old metal music. I believe that violence never solves anything, so why resort to it to solve problems? With all the wars the world has seen, there should be a clue somewhere in there!
