Lieutenant Woman
----------------
Lieutenant Woman, you who set my soul on fire,
Give me the punishment that is my sweet desire.
Whenever I spy a cabbage head lying loose upon the floor,
I think of my Lieutenant Woman standing near the door.

Bunny Business
--------------
Bunny business is funny business,
Nobody's business but theirs,
You cannot hope to fathom
The society of hares.

Out in the Hall
---------------
Out in the hall the young men sang,
Hoping to lure mates,
Yet I cannot muster interest
In learning of their fates.

I Just Read in the Paper
------------------------
I just read in the paper
How the teams had fared,
That new films had just opened,
And war had been declared.

Insects
-------
Insects do nothing for me,
They simply leave me cold,
Give me instead a fruity pumpkin
Or a tasty bit of mold.

Taffy in the Trunk
------------------
I put the taffy in the trunk.
The day was hot.
The taffy melted.
Hallelujah!

I Voted Twice
-------------
I voted twice,
Once for the candidate of my head,
Once for the candidate of my heart.
But an independent won.

Counting the Hours
------------------
I count the hours to the next event
That marries logic to love,
An elite taxi driver
Will figure in this.

Police Moved Through the Meadow
-------------------------------
Police moved through the meadow
Arresting mice and weeds.
Who could tell the reason,
The motive for these deeds?

Out of Nights and Mornings
--------------------------
Out of nights and mornings
The creatures came, applauding
The stars and the sun,
The twinklers and Mr. Hot.

This stuff reminds me of Piet Hein's Grooks. That's a good thing. :)

Is there a name for this style of poetry?
Cynical couplets?

Epigrams, perhaps? Is that the word that I think it is?

Election:
Chads are back in voting style
While e-vote sellers chant Sieg Heil.
Election results are guaranteed
To allow the successful to really succeed.
