Short Fiddlesticks Poems

Roseanne Barr a funny lady, so sweet
until her true self appears in an awful tweet,
If the cause was Ambien she should try Horlicks
sleeping pills causes racist remarks, just fiddlesticks.

Hope Zona Man's okay, didn't get an overdose of pricks
Uh please excuse, cactus thorns, sharp pointy things, oh fiddlesticks
Let's just call them tiny daggers
Making JJ scream and stagger
Just wrap him up in swaddling clothes, this raving lunatic...

A whinstone varigated thoughtless vegetative scrumptious.
A thanksgiving theology scrupulous splutter simultaneous.
A wistful zephyr as a wizened face vehemently wiseacre,
A filibuster recommends fiddlesticks to extradite fabulous.
An extraordinary amusable, desirable or sustainable flush....

No word “yes” and “no”
Never revealed just a fiddlesticks
Never clear and shouted “hang on a mo!”

Emphasize public should demand to jurist
For seeking one by one lines
To avoid mourning forever

Clause by clause just a black nicks
Blunt down and pointed upwards
Vide! Marginal are always oppressed...

Ya boo and fiddlesticks
to the thorns of life and all that pricks.
Ya boo, too, ye  plutocrats
who treat the rest like worthless rats.
Fiddlesticks to  ivory towers
where boffins sport their mental powers,
deeming themselves to be omniscient
and lesser minds somewhat deficient.
Give me the simple things of life,
these to share with kids and wife....

Just for calling fiddlesticks
No one makes a sound
Some deny the trick exists
But evidence abounds

Passion lights the smallest fire
Blown by winds of rage 
All compete for just awhile 
To dance upon the stage

Only those who take a bow
Admit it’s all an act 
Can move along past fiddlesticks
And find themselves intact

Just where have the weeks gone
Another year has whizzed past
No New Years resolution, I'd only break it
Unless it’s to meet George Clooney
Ah fiddlesticks he’s married now! 
Romance is off the cards
Yeah, but a girl can dream!

NB I have never made a New Year's Resolution, this is just a standing joke with my husband
