ZEE POET OR ZEE COMIC – WHICH EEZ MORE MORONIC?
In my April Fools’ Day post, I noted that April is NATIONAL HUMOR MONTH. As a poet of sorts, wouldn’t it be funny if April also happened to be NATIONAL POETRY MONTH?
Well, as you might guess,
it turns out that, yes,
that is the case….
and this is the place
where poetry and funny
join together as oney
until death do them party
or are doomed from the starty
by comic rigor mortis
or a poet out of sortis.
Oui, mon ami — this is going to be a post which joins zee art of zee poet with zee art of zee comic, and if you don’t like zee combinaison, you can lump eet. What’s more, I’ll do more such posts, zee likes of which will have you begging for merci. So if you know what’s not good for you, you’ll take eet and like eet….or take eet and fake eet. I’m not particular. (I’m also not hungry — I think I eet too much.)
Understand, I’m not one of those poets who doesn’t understand what he has written, but somehow expects zee reader to. Non, mon ami, I understand perfectly what I have written. It’s YOU who I expect hasn’t a clue. Why is that true? I have no clue. And, frankly my dear, I don’t give a fous (pardon my French).
Unfortunately, I see that my allotted time for this post is almost up, so zee funny poems I was going to publish here must wait until next time, for which I apologize. Thank you for your very kind attention….or, as zee Hoosier Hot Shots more etiquettely and poetically put it:

Zee comic is more moronic, Sr. Muse. Ask any of my critics. but I’m happy to split the month with you.

Ricardo, we can both take consolation from knowing that we could never aspire to the moronic heights of zee politician.

I must admit to loving those Hoosiers too. I can’t think of any other reason why I own dozens of Hoosier Hot Shots 78 rpm records, LPs and CDs. There may appear to be cornball musicians, but they’re actually very talented. Good singing and harmony, too.

It means what Clark Gable said in English in GONE WITH THE WIND, though my version admittedly loses something in translation. C’est la vie.

Oh, just that… You see, in Portugal, where my mother grew up, the slang word for unpleasant things that make sounds like “fous” is “phung” (not sure I have the spelling correctly but the phonetics are spot on)…

Goodness, you should have seen the flap my site just went through over some kind of inappropriate wording (regarding the exact nature of which I am still, after multiple concerned inquiries to the complainers, completely clueless).
THAT’s awkward. I thought your response was just fine, not to worry 😊

No problem. I understand that many of my readers aren’t American and may not make the connection with some of my wordplay, so I appreciate your comments.
