On the turning

It was on this solemn date
In nineteen and fifty eight
Just past midnight I joined life
And if I could have only knew
Of the speed at which life grew
I'd have avoided all the strife.

Sad Traverses 'neath Adverse Stars

Sad traverses 'neath adverse stars
His mind's afire with unseen scars
Sixty plus seven years he's seen
Over, under, and in the mean
In life they say, accept your fate
Believe me friends, don't take that bait.

Artificial Intelligence

I have observed that Artificial Intelligence is of two kinds:

1. the ability of machines to perform tasks that are typically associated with human intelligence, such as learning and problem solving.
2. the ability of humans to fake intelligence to make themselves appear smarter than they actually are.

There once was a fellow named Kurt

Who had a twin brother named Burt
While in Serengeti
They slurped up spaghetti
And took naps face down in the dirt.

Who wore the most beautiful smiles
One day in a flash
She grabbed all her cash
And left town with a man named Wiles.

Scranton Joe

World renowned, he's The Scranton Joe
Full of himself, corrupt, and low
A pompous ass without a nerve
Self and mammon he's first to serve
Boorish knave! to Hell he'll go
That venal scum, The Scranton Joe.

A pro at doing the shimmy
One morning at two
She stepped in some glue
And cried QUICK! I need a Jimmy.

Whose hair was too long to tally
One night on a date
She snagged a gate
And sank from peak to valley.

A woman not known for whims
And in no small part
She'd broken my heart
But so kindly spared my limbs.

Who labored in all kinds of weather
In her big old brown truck
Sporting a smile for luck
Found no parcels light as a feather.

There once was a girl from Purdue

There once was a girl from Purdue
Not far from the Tippecanoe
In search of her Wow!
She followed a cow
Back home to a farmer named Stu.
