Ode To Velcro

Rod the roach

1 min read

The rip

That strips itself from its pair

Oh how you keep sneakers together

Oh how you keep baseball gloves together

So useful you are Velcro

You make the world go round

But I’m a flat Earther

And I don’t belive the Earth is round...

Dog Poop Baggie

Rod the roach

1 min read

I was happy taking a walk with my dog

Feeling a bit of joy

But now I feel manipulated like a toy

I knew my dog could sense my euphoria

What a waste of a day

All I wanted was a taste of a good day

But my dog had to poo

And what could I do?

Do I leave him and walk a way

Or do I stay and let the poison like stench reach my nose

Let me tell you it DOESN’T smell like a rose

I looked up to sky taking a...

Behind The Dunkin’ Donuts

Rod the roach

1 min read

We were Dunkin’

Our donuts

And the coffee shop music was funkin’

And groovin’

We were lookin’ left and right hitting those moves

Like we got nothing left to loose

But all good things must come to an end

It was closing time

But in no time we packed it up

And took it outside behind the Dunkin’ Donuts

Coffee runnin’ in our veins

Eyes a bit glossy and mouths a bit frothy

From the powdered sugar...

Harmonica Shaped Vape

Rod the roach

1 min read

I need it

Maybe I’m a fiend for it

I’m reelin’ for it

If my hands aren’t feelin’ it

Blue raspberry

Sour apple

Strawberry blow pop

If I ain’t huffin’ that stuff then I’ll drop

Music to my ears

And my taste buds

Flavors so beautiful and melodic

I savor it

Pink lemonade air

Doesn’t scare my lungs

When I’m huffing and puffing

I become the best harmonica player and I’m not bluffing

Because I’ve got ...

Small Lived Fame

Rod the roach

1 min read

Everyday life

Is unexpectedly lonely

It feels like the most important slice was taken out of me

It makes me feel lowly and my complexion ghostly

Bright lights used to shine in my face

The shutter of cameras a soothing sound.

No there’s nobody around in this place.

I feel like I can’t be found.

I used to have a name as the biggest paranormal hunting YouTuber.

Busy with autographs and meet and greet...

Doomsday

Rod the roach

1 min read

Doomsday?

More fun day, go play out in the sun day!

Zombie apocalypse?

Hard?

No, eating canned beans with a silver fork type of work.

I’ve been waiting for this time.

I would give up every pretty dime to have a hot zombie boyfriend....

24-hour Walmart Challenge

Rod the roach

1 min read

I thought we could do it

Get through it

Together

Me hiding behind the toilet paper

And you behind the Crock Pots

It was supposed to be “Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy”

We were doing fantastic

Then everything turned trumatic

When a employee working the night shift

Walked by when you sneezed

Game over

Our attempt at small fame over

Because when we heard

“Your time is up. Better run!”

We bolted

And didn...

Jelly

Rod the roach

1 min read

Oh my love jelly.

You go in my belly.

On my toast

Maybe even a roast beef sandwich

Strawberry to grape

You’re shape jiggles

And riggles about

You’re scrumptious taste makes me want to shout

Oh jelly you’re so cute

Where were you on January 16th?...

Ceramic Carrot

Ceaser Flickerman smiled and waved to the crowd. He took a deep bow. And smoothly sat in his armchair with one leg propped on the other. Then it was my turn to rise onto the the stage. I held my breathe while the platform started moving. Bright lights flooded my vision. The vivacious crowds cheering made its way to my ears.

I was the star of the show tonight. I had won. I had conquered all twenty...

Dear My Beloved

Rod the roach

1 min read

As I ponder

My thoughts become fonder

Of this piece of art infront of my eyes

Is it all a lie?

Does Joe Biden even love me?

Only this piece art

Will ever have my heart again

My stomach is cramping

From doing a handstand

While looking at this art

Oh shoot I got to poop maybe it’s just a fart

Yes it was...
