Whimsy

A collection

many frogs sit on a stump

they watch silently

until one day

ribbit

water is everywhere

help call the coast guard

glub

i like big butts and i cannot lie

*die

i cannot die

please end my suffering

poems are stupid

poets are also subpar

biking is better

food is tasty

but you know what is tastier?

revenge

this collection is the text equivalent vine

but significantly less funny

and based off of whatever i happen to look at

throughout my day

egg on toast

better than just toast for health

but eggs taste weird

needs more seasoning

bananas seem to operate on a different clock

represented by a bell curve, where the height measures speed of the passage of time

green lasts a while, yellow zooms by in an instant, and then they are brown

the theremin is an instrument played without contact

with the location of the players hands dictating the sounds created

a crude electronic orchestra

following an antisocial conductor

nature poetry

About the Creator

Shamus Schneider

I like reading fantasy. Every once in a while, I write a poem about something.
