Dear Editor or Shreditor

by Michael R. Burch

Dear Ed: I don’t understand why

you will publish this other guy―

when I’m brilliant, devoted,

one hell of a poet!

Yet you publish Anonymous. Fie!

Fie! A pox on your head if you favor

this poet who’s dubious, unsavor-

y, inconsistent in texts,

no address (I checked!):

since he’s plagiarized Unknown, I’ll wager!

Originally published by The Eclectic Muse as "The Better Man"

Trump Limericks aka Slimericks

The Nazis now think things’re grand.

The KKK’s hirin’ a band.

Putin’s computin’

Less Ukrainian shootin’.

They’re hootin’ ’cause Trump’s win is planned.

�"Michael R. Burch

Trump comes with a few grotesque catches:

He likes to grope unoffered snatches;

He loves to ICE kids;

His brain’s on the skids;

And then there’s the coups the fiend hatches.

Trump’s Saddest Tweet to Date

by Michael R. Burch

I’ve gotten all out of kilter.

My erstwhile yuge tool is a wilter!

I now sleep in bed.

Few hairs on my head.

Inhibitions? I now have no filter!

the best of all possible whirls, for MAGA

by Michael R. Burch

ive made a mistake or two.

okay, maybe quite more than a few:

mistakes by the millions,

the billions and zillions,

but remember: ur LORD made u!

where were u when HEE passed out brains?

or did u politely abstain?

u call GAUD “infallible”

when HEE made u so gullible

u cant come inside when Trump reigns.

Scratch-n-Sniff

by Michael R. Burch

The world’s first antinatalist limerick?

Life comes with a terrible catch:

It’s like starting a fire with a match.

Though the flames may delight

In the dark of the night,

In the end what remains from the scratch?

Time Out!

by Michael R. Burch

Time is at war with my body!

am i Time’s most diligent hobby?

for there’s never Time out

from my low-t and gout

and my once-brilliant mind has grown stodgy!

Waiting Game

by Michael R. Burch

Nothing much to live for,

yet no good reason to die:

life became

a waiting game...

Rain from a clear blue sky.

N*****s' Ripples

by Michael R. Burch

Men are scared of n*****s:

that’s why they can’t be seen.

For if they were,

we’d go to war

as in the days of Troy, I ween.

Devil’s Wheel

by Michael R. Burch

A billion men saw your pink undies.

What will the pard say to you, Sundays?

Yes, your panties were cute,

but the shocked Devil, mute,

now worries about reckless fundies.

A Prude Goes Nude

by Michael R. Burch

She wore near-invisible panties

and, my, she looked good in her scanties!

But the real nudists claimed

she was “over-framed.”

Now she’s bare-assed and shocking her aunties!

MVP!

by Michael R. Burch

Will Ohtani hit 65 homers,

win the Cy Young by striking out Gomers,

make it cute and okay

to write KKK

while inspiring rhyme-challenged poemers?

Will Ohtani hit 65homers,

win the Cy Young by striking out Gomers,

prove the nemesis

of white supremacists

while inspiring rhyme-challenged poemers?

Will Ohtani hit 65 homers,

win the Cy Young by striking out Gomers,

cause supremacists

to cease and desist

while inspiring rhyme-challenged poemers?
