Dogs and Cats of Ohio

Dogs and Cats of Ohio

I heard they’re eating pets in Ohio,

Dogs and cats to name a few,

And if they’re not available,

Rabbits, rodents, and rats will do.

I heard the town was Springfield,

Where Bart Simpson is said to live.

Pest control went to his door

And asked, “What the hell gives?”

Bart said he knew nothing of it.

Then he belched and he sighed.

In the back, a bearded Vance

Held up a held up a cat: “Have you tried?”

BK Junior descended to town

With his wild frontier show.

Left a dead bear in the park

So everybody would know.

Then a felon feeling compelling

Tried to put Fear upon the stage.

But being foretold he was too old

Donning a fool’s errand rage.

And the beast it did consume him

In its ever-pitiless way

And once the beast had self eaten.

Not even a cat could find a stray.

“Spiderwort”

Spiderwort

Small, purple petals, /

the Ohio Spiderwort /

weaves through your garden.

Rotten Reviews or Rejections

Even well-known works at one time were unknown … and often rejected. Or if published, did not meet with universal praise. Here is an example of the later.

Sunday Silliness: limerick: “Ohio”

There once was a woman ill from Ohio
whose love life was in complete spiral.
She took to her bed,
pulled the pillows over her head:
her boyfriend had voted across the aisle.
