Words Mean Something

Words Mean Something


Do these words mean anything
What about
If you choose to sing them
Would anybody listen
Would anybody try to
The theory is no
And that's just how things go
Right
No
You're wrong
This is a poem not a song
No matter how you doll it up
Make it cute as a button
So much that it will hurt
When you say something curt
Because words still mean something
No one can know what futures bring
Silly rhymes
Don't lie ahead
Stay sad and serious
A smiling face deserves a cuss
And you may never see the humor
Okay Boomer
That wasn't used right
But at least there was light
You never even saw it happening
The whole internet is there
But you only used Bing
If I thought I could
I would sing
A taunt
Right now
Though I'd probably screw it up somehow
Words are often quite tricky
Even words like sticky
Which can be quite icky
But words mean something

Arthur The Mule

Arthur was the muliest mule
But no one wanted to play
'Cause folks are always busy
Dudes have got things to do
Even farmer Frank
Freaking over fish
Golly gee
He had to see
Into
Jolly Jake's
Keyhole
Lamenting his next choice
Mumbling under breath
Not that animals notice
Over Arthur went farmer Frank's voice
Peeling puppies out of paint
Quickly drying
Raccoons were flying
Some might call it silly or
Totally implausible
Up in the sky dreams
Very goofy
Were the orders of the day
Xerosis in their hearts
Yet never can they see
Zoological specialty

I'm Not Dragging Them Down

I know that I don't
Belong around here
Where I go next
Is extremely unclear
But I do know
How I feel
Does that mean anything
To you?
I'm guessing probably not
Even after I sought
The perfect name
Gave everything I had
It was never you
Whoever "you" happens to be
For me
Possibly
Nobody
'Tis okay though
I watch them go
And as I walk away
I think
At least
I'm not dragging them down
There's no stopping them now
