I am marrying a young lady named Kate
Who will inherit all of my literary estate.
She says, “writers have money”,
Which I find really funny –

If there is No Heaven or Hell
If there is no heaven or hell
Then one may as well
Give in to sin.

So I’m going to heaven
With Moriah at 7 …

But trees assaulting me!
That makes me run!

There once was a careless young guy
Who fell into some very sharp cacti.
He said with a squeal,
“These are the real deal!”.
Then sighed and died from those cacti!
Midnight Poetry
As I sat reciting poetry at midnight
I spied a young lady dressed in white.
When I said, “are you a ghost!”,
She said, “no! I’m your host!
And your poetry woke me up at midnight!”
