Whimsical Poems

 Blind to the Gift Horse's Mouth       The Bridge between Us
The clam turned to talk to the trout,
Expressing what his wants are about,
I want to see you see,
I'm sick and tired of roaming the sea so free,
Without knowing…knowing where exactly I be,
It's so frustrating…frustrated obviously,
This is not…not a perfect life to lead.
Just then…

The clam got his wish,
Turned into a fish,
Swam near the shore,
But got caught by a lure,
His dream wasn't to wait,
On somebody's plate.

The bat turned to talk to the rat,
Sulking right where he sat,
Echolocation is not what it seems,
I can't see, so I'm living life oh so cheap,
So dark, my world is…it all just seems so bleak,
The ceiling just is not…not a great place to sleep,
This is not the life…the life I should keep.
Just then…

The bat turned into a cat
Devoured the rat,
Grinned ear to ear.
A devious sneer,
But choked on his head,
And then just dropped dead.

The mole turned to the worm,
To voice his concern,
If my vision blurred all times I cried,
Then I'd see a world through cataracts eye,
But alas I can not see…although often I try,
I'm tired of turning…turning a blind eye to the sky,
I am not going to lie…but I would much rather die.
Just then…

The mole opened his eyes,
And to his surprise,
Could see everyone,
So he went to see the sun,
But stared just a bit too long,
And his vision is gone.
I do not know how much of this stress I can take
Under such a great moment, I'm likely to break
I've placed my trust in you
You've placed your truss in me

Hoping to make me stronger
And build me up
But I've buckled under pressure
I've been deformed

I've been designed and tested
Tested for perfection
You said you were civil
But now I've crumbled

I've felt the weight of a world on my back
Converted to psi's
They say life has its kicks
But I am not alive, and I have felt too many kips

I've been given a signal of light
I've given you sigma for stress
I've acted as an intermediary for too long
Perhaps I was too long

You've paved my way
But I've given way
Miscalculations led me to this
Now I lay in a river, rubble of bliss

You waited in anticipation
To be paid for your creation
Perhaps you should have taken your time
When it was my time to shine
 
The Stapler     Horse Art
The stapler sat, waiting for his one chance

"You undo all my work," he said in a glance

The office lights dim, they left him alone

"Staple remover, revenge must be shown"

 

The cruel four fanged fiend hissed a snide retort

"I nip metal to let papers unsort

You on the other hand, I dare to quip

Are nothing more than a big paper clip"

 

"You make things so final," he continued

"And it is not as if I will get sued

You are a coward stapler, now go hide

Unless you think we should take this outside"

 

"No need," the stapler replied with a sneer

"I think we should settle this now, right here"

"Don't," the calculator rallied for peace

"This will get bad, someone call the police"

 

The stapler ran in, to initiate

He trained for this day, and was feeling great

He pulled back and spat a staple with force

And screamed "I will knock you off that high horse"

 

The remover swiftly dodged the attack

Charged and snagged a stapler type of snack

He sunk his teeth in, and would not let go

The stapler just smirked and started to glow

 

The remover was filled with a juiced jolt

He jumped off just to be struck by a bolt

"Are you shocked?" The stapler asked happily

"I carry currents," he added with glee

 

"Abomination," the paper clips cried

"It's what he deserves," the tape then implied

"Show mercy," the ruler shouted aloud

"Finish him off," a pen screamed from the crowd

 

"Now quite yet," the stapler turned to his friends

"I will offer him...one chance for amends"

"Staple this!" The remover gestured crude

"Apologize?" I would rather be food

 

"That can be arranged," he said with a grin

He opened his jaw and peeled back his skin

Springs and staples sprang all up and about

There stood a demon who let out a shout

 

Encased in fire he let out a hiss

And stomped near with an intentional miss

"Sorry," the remover pleaded with tears

"Fool," the demon spat, "now realize your fears"

 

He reached out a hand, most surely in jest

Then one swoop, incinerated the pest

"No remorse for the remover, I say

My staples stay put, now have a nice day" 

He takes out his pad
And just starts to draw

Although he is sad

You won't hear him haw


His days of race passed
When injured his hoof

Now lame and depressed

He turned an art buff


He will not give in

Avoiding the glue

His pen starts to spin

His drawings are true


He starts with a wheel

His artistry shines

He has found his zeal

Treasured by equines


He adds in the reins

And sketches a door

He fights though his pains

His whole body sore


But strains to complete

A perfect image

Remarkable feat

A horse drawn carriage

   
Youth in Revolt Magically Common Day

Bruised and bloodied I wait
My friends at Heaven's Gate

Tense I cling to my gun

Should I dare make the run


Open field must push on

With just one obstruction

A meek solitude tree

Pass it and I'm home free


No enemies in sight

Perhaps they fled the fight

Quick I jump to my feet

Embarking the retreat


Cries as I near the plant

Survive I know I can't

Children drop down on me

All with sinister glee


All armed with a twelve gauge

Less than one year in age

Diapers all pink and blue

Before they run me through

Shout the final decree

All fear the Infant Tree

Now I thought I’d start the day

By strolling into town

Right on my path was a magical

Wish granting beetle

Lying right on the ground

 

How I’d handle some wishes

Not sure what I’d do

Unfortunately

I didn’t see him

Now he’s all up in my shoe

 

This is just an example

Of a magically common day

Nothing special happens

In a magical kinda way

 

As I continued merrily

I saw a dragon in the park

He pranced right up to me

And here is what he did bark

 

I’ve suffered many hardships

My family has been slain

I’m now looking for revenge

To help ease the pain

Have you seen a knight here in this state

I looked at my watch and said your about eight hours late

 

The dragon then took a piece of gum

Out of his pouch

Shoved it in his mouth and humbly asked

Can I crash on your couch

 

I then noticed his change can and no shoes

And he didn’t offer me any gum

So eyes ablaze I turned to him

And yelled get a job you lazy bum
