A long time ago,
Jesus was our Paschal Lamb.
He was Jewish,
And yet we all eat ham.
Random Thoughts
Another Year
Another year has come and gone.
I wonder what I have done wrong.
We barely ever left the house.
We’ve just been quiet as a mouse.
We’ve had our two government shots.
I don’t see that it helps a lot.
I hope we get to travel soon.
I’m feeling crazy as a loon.
Uninspired
This must be a Monday,
I have nothing clever to say.
Don’t give this a second look.
My mind is but an open book.
I’ve been spending all this time,
Just to find some words to rhyme.
My head is feeling very dense.
The words don’t really make much sense.
Tomorrow is another day.
I’m sure my mind will be OK.
I will have a great work of art.
At least I’ll have another start.
Isolation
Anything you need,
Just use the app.
Don’t open the door,
Leave it on the mat.
To meet your team,
You just use Zoom.
You won’t even be
In the same room.
If you need a friend,
There’s online chat.
If you need a date,
Let’s not talk about that.
Defeat the virus!
Just stay home!
The problem is
We’re all alone.
It’s A Dog’s Life

You don’t understand me at all.
Hey! Listen to me!
I’m trying to tell you something important.
I forgot.
Time to go out.
Why am I in the yard?
Time to come in.
I’m starving.
Wow. I’m full.
Is there more?
Skritch me.
Skritch me.
Why are you touching me?
Stranger! Stranger! Stran.. Oh, it’s Mom.
I’m sleepy.
Stranger! Stranger! Stran.. Oh, it’s Dad.
I’ll finish my nap.
Time to go out.
Nevermind.
Cleanup on aisle three.
I’m just a bit hungry.
Why did you wake me up?
Is there food?
Dad? Dad? Dad? Dad? Dad? Dad? Dad? Dad?
Nevermind.
Grandma said you have to share your steak.
I’m waiting.
This slipper tastes like steak, I think.
Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom? Mom?
Nevermind.
I’m starving again.
Not now, I’m napping.
Can I have a snack?
A Short Story

My name is Graham.
I am a Gnome.
I am so bored.
I’m stuck at home.
I want to swim.
I want to surf.
I need a friend.
I’ll date a Smurf.
I am off to sail,
Across the sea.
I need a cruise.
Will you go with me?
Quarantine Learning
While we are all here on lockdown,
Just sitting at home has lost its thrills.
So, I am working on self-improvement.
I am taking the time to increase my skills.
Last week, I studied to be a mob boss.
I learned to show no mercy.
Now, I have to find my associates.
I just don’t want to move to Jersey.
This week, I learned to be a King.
Assuming it’s like being a Queen.
I will kindly rule my Empire,
I need a crown and some caffeine.
Today, I learned to run a crab boat.
“Captain” has been on my bucket list.
Now, I just need to get a boat.
Then, I have a crew to enlist.
I was learning to be a survivor,
But it didn’t last too long.
It’s just office committee politics,
Where the weak outvote the strong.
Next week, I’ll run a rescue,
Although it may be life or death.
It doesn’t sound too difficult,
I hear you need tigers and some meth.
Alexa en Español
I set Alexa into Spanish mode.
I didn’t know you could.
My friends think it’s crazy.
They don’t know why I would.
I can’t ask her any questions now.
So why did I make the swap?
While I don’t know weather in Alsaka,
It means my wife can’t shop.
Dog Haiku (Translated)
I need a small snack.
Nap time is my favorite.
All. Squirrels. Must. Die.
Virus Haiku
Washing constantly.
Staring at the same four walls.
Slowly losing mind.
