I present to you... Drumroll...
The Circus of Poetry Fun!
Now everyone should know,
The meaning of this show,
To entertain,
To BLOW THE BRAIN!
To best Edgar Allen Poe!
And so I begin with the post, I thank you in the most.
The Drunken Surgeon
"Wuzzat?" I wearily say,"Yer tellin' me now i have ta pay?"
"I sat here all through the bloody night' and now yer sendin' me off without a bite?"
"I got an appointment in two hours, I need some breakfast, I'm seein' flowers!"
"I'll pay ya back another day, but excuse me now, I'll be on muh way,
My patient can't wait, I can't concentrate,
My career could suffer a dire fate!
I sure do hope I sober up, or i'll be operatin' like a newborn pup."
So I waddled off to work, wearin' a half-assed drunken smirk.
I dragged myself to the operatin' room, started with a scalpel and
finished with a boom.
Now it's mid december, and I sure do remember,
that fateful day, when to my dismay,
My job was put out like a watery ember.
And now i'm just a bum, smelling of day old rum,
I wish each and every day,
I could relive that one another way,
So please don't ever get super drunk,
Or you'll be like me, sittin' on a pile of junk.
I don't usually write stuff with a moral, but i decided i'd do it just this once.
It's actually not the end of the world if you get drunk, just don't do it the night before an important surgery or driving.(MADD- Matt Against Drunk Driving)
Now for the second poem in the Circus of poetry fun!
Life Without a Skateboard
Imagine life without a skateboard deck,
I'd rather burn in the fire of heck!
You'd have no cool looking, rewarding way,
of getting wicked thrills almost every day!
You'd have to be speed dating, or somehow creating,
the perfect form of fun, of godly proportion, that doesn't have to do, with the sport of the gods called skating!
So the action we have to take, to regard skateboarding as a precious keepsake,
is to be more grateful, not more hateful,
of the legends who skated us awake!
(Chris Haslam, Daewon Song, Danny Way, Brandon Westgate, Chima Ferguson, Chris Cole)
All of these guys have stood to eliminate the stereotype that all skaters are punks
or delinquents, and these guys also know how to have fun. Peace out.
And now for the final poem in the Circus of Poetry Fun!
The Circus
Were goin' to the circus! It's comin' into view!
I just can't wait 'til I get there, mate, and I'll watch the circus with you!
There'll be dancing bears and balancing chairs,
a bearded woman and a hare in a hat,
There's gonna be a cool ring master,an elephant, and a man who is half rat.
We'll be eatin' popcorn in the happy crowd, we'll see the magician appear in a smoky shroud, He'll pull a coin from his ear and ride a magical cloud,
and we'll clap and cheer, 'cause we'll be happy here!
The seals are balancin' on the stage, the curtains reveal a tiger full of rage!
We hoot and whistle and cry and laugh,
The executioner splits a man in half!
Then his legs start dancin' when the show is done,
and the curtain closes on the Circus of Poetry Fun!
Thanks for tuning into Matt's Circus of Poetry Fun!
