My Love

It’s not that I don’t like you,
I just love myself too much.
The thought of loving another
gets my fur all in a bunch.
I’ll love you when there’s time
and when it’s best for me
just to keep you hanging
on thoughts of what may be.
Don’t be offended
by what is simply true;
my love for me is greater
than my love for you.

$5

I sold the last of you
just today at our old school.
Some memory still remained
of the boy you once portrayed.
Was it that you changed
or was my young brain to blame?
Perhaps you were never you
and all your sides are the same.

Greeting Cards for Impeachment

There have been whispers since our current president took office. There was even a meager attempt to bring impeachment upon the commander in chief. Regardless of where you stand politically, it seems that the possibility of impeachment just won’t lay down and die. If that happens, I just don’t think the fragile ego of said president could survive. Here are some ideas for helpful cards to send President Trump should he fall from his self-made pedestal.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bought

You tell me to go to the window,
but no cat would obey a command.
So, even if it’s the best view
with a total lay of the land,
I’ll stay right where I am
and let that window rot
because I answer to no one,
but for a fish, I can be bought.

Most Wonderful Time

Christmas tunes play
over the tinny mall speakers;
oh, the most wonderful time
of the year is here.

Look at the cheer
as some get trampled
to buy for those so dear
that they haven’t seen one another
in over a year.

Shop, shop, shop,
until you are sure to drop
and don’t forget to protect
the sanctity
of a pagan customs
shrouded in religion.
