Joe Marcello Poems

What if when you looked in the mirror
That it's not your reflection that you stare
It's another you in another dimension
Good at guessing, what you're going to wear
...

Governments, business, science and world organizations
Are all a big fan
Who has the most power of persuasion
It's the boogeyman
...

I commanded my dog to sit, he stood
Now go fetch a stick, he stayed resting
Told him to roll over, he begged
I'm now against animal testing
...

Men and women are truly opposites
It's amazing that relationships last
Since women look for men with a future
Men are looking for women with a past
...

Never dismiss the thoughts of the elderly
For their words and wisdom you can trust
Because even a mop that is never used
Will still continue to collect dust
...

When dealing with issues in your family
It's easy to get overrun
Seems a cinch to make a lot of people angry
Then it is to please everyone
...

Hail to the famous writers and commentators
With the courage for which it employs
To stand up against real evil
All those old cartoons and children's toys
...

The people who have figured it out
And chartered through life's seasons
Never use many excuses
They followed through on reasons
...

Have you looked at the automobiles in a parking lot lately
All the makes and models look the same
We are all the victims of conformity
And we only have ourselves to blame
...

Well you believe you have written a lousy poem
So you throw it into the trash on the spot
Please go and retrieve it
Fo it's called, garbage can, not garbage cannot
...
