Okay, this this was a fun little thing I did a couple days ago. I don’t know if it’s technically a poem, more like a very free verse kind of things. Anyways, it’s funny, so I thought I’d put it up here for y’all to enjoy –

“Riding the wind” sound fun,

But wouldn’t it be rather dangerous?

I mean, no seat belts, so…

“Catch a falling star and put it in your pocket”

Save up for a new pair of pants

When the star has burned a hole through the cloth

Hello, people, it’s a star!

As in, flaming ball of gas?

Can you not see the problem here?

And while we’re on that subject…

“Her beauty shone like the stars.”

Yeah, okay, so she’s either

A tiny white dot to your eyes

Or burnt to a crisp in deep space

Just saying…

“Happily ever after”

Why is that even a thing?

I mean, who thought to put those three words together?

Just weird…

Yes, yes, call me whatever you want.

Pessimist, spoil-sport.

I don’t care.

I’m a realist.

Now would you please step aside?

You’re in the way of my unicorn.
