Haiku Madness

Fashionista? “Here.”
Sandinista? “Here. I have
Missiles aimed at you.”

Missiles aimed at you,
Superman, will just bounce off.
But not Lois Lane!

But not Lois Lane!
Drunken tramp trashes parties.
That’s NOT super, man.

That’s not Superman
For proof, hold these in your hand
Those aren’t balls of steel

(From an old joke that isn’t nearly good enough to repeat.)

Those aren’t balls of steel
Floating in your chicken soup;
That’s matzoh, you nudzh.

(Esox: you WILL tell that joke, eventually. You have no choice.) :smiley:

Okay, but you’ll be sorry…

*In class one day, little Johnny drops some ball bearings on the floor and they roll to the front of the class.

“Okay,” says the teacher, “who has balls of steel?”

“Superman!” says little Johnny.*

I warned you.


Back in play:

That’s matzoh, you nudzh
Okay, who has matzoh balls?
Jewish Superman!

Jewish Superman!
But, how can anyone tell?
He wears red tights, duh.

He wears red tights, duh-
duh-duh-duh-duh-Daredevil!
The Man Without Fear!

The Man Without Fear:
He married not once, not twice,
But seventeen times!

(Esox - excellent joke.)

But seventeen times
Six equals one hundred two
Not one hundred one

Not one hundred one
Only a long One Hundred
Years of Solitude

Years of solitude
Can not make up for hearing
Your voice ONE MORE TIME!!

Your voice one more time:
like Barry Manilow’s song,
One Voice, sung solo.

One Voice, sung solo,
Contralto counterpoint and
Bring in the chorus!

Bring in the chorus!
Bring in the guitar solo!
Bring in the…pizza?

Bring in the pizza
deep crust pepperoni pie
no anchovies please

No anchovies, please!
I do not like my pizza
Staring up at me.

Staring up at me
The face of my enemy
He looks just like me

He looks just like me
He’s quite the doppelganger
Cloning miracle?

Cloning miracle!
The evil one has a beard;
I’m beside myself!
