You Can, But We Won’t


How many times, you YouTube lords
will you subject our watching hordes
to your dumb advertising game?

You make us watch your pointless skits
each humorously writ by wits
repeated, numbingly the same.

Well, YouTube lords, here’s useful news:
we rabble ever shall refuse
remembering your product’s name!

When the Rooster Crows

You follow at a distance, terrified and cold,
and you stand by the fire warming your hands.
You worry what will happen, because you were told.

Yet you refuse to believe what transpires,
and no one really understands-
you must protect your own hopes and desires.

You have to make a choice; that's the way it goes.
No one really knows, until the rooster crows.

A delightful Easter (or more specifically, Good Friday) poem.  And insightful, too.
