Make me Roll with Laughter PLEASE

OK gang, I have returned and with all that has been happening in my life to date, well I need some laughter so give me your absolute BEST funny new write! I hear you there in the background saying
" BUT BUT BUT... my best write is already done! "

BS!! Your best write has NEVER been done until you have died so unless your dead, (In which case consider yourself not qualified for this contest ) stretch the brain cells and make one even better than your last best humorous write! I NEED!! This people!

OK so yeah there has to be rules!

1. No funky writing, I dislike chat lingo and sticky caps, dirty-pretty and pic poems are fine, if they really compliment the poem.

2. This is for HUMOR so please, no suicide, cutting, death, etc, it really ISN'T funny to me.

3. NO BASHING!! I mean it, not other poems, not specific people or groups of people, I really don't even care for specific famous people bashing, they are humans too and it is just not that funny to me on the best of days but especially not right now!

4. Keep the adult language and subjects to a minimum, it usually isn't as funny as you think in a poem, and even if it is, well it isn't really what I need right now.

5. I am allowing multiple entries, but please, make them worthy! Give me your best and have fun!

6.Read at least 2 other poets submissions to this contest and comment constructively to them.

7. Put your SN and the phrase, "I Agree" in AN's so I know you read and agree with these rules.

ok, well I think that is all for now! If I find or think of something else, I will add it or send out mails about it, but try to check back at least once before I close.

PS I reserve the right to delete any entry I choose for any reason, and may or may not give a reason. Don't whine about it, just give me something better!

  • Final notes:
    First, thank you all for some unique and funny entries. Some of them had me scratching my head but most were perfect for this contest! Second, my apologies for the brief delay in judging, im afraid RL issues called me away for a short time, but thank you all for your patience. IF you did not do so, I strongly encourage you all to read the others in here, especially those that made the finalists list! They will make you at least smile but more likely actually laugh and we can all use one of those! Congratulations to the winners: Gotta Get Me One, Pursuit of a Poetry Prize, and South Bangor Babby. Although you were all winners to me in that you made me laugh when I needed it, these three shone brightly! Thanks again all of you for entering and making me laugh! Best of luck in all of your endeavours!

    You say that I'm not qualified, that's just because I'm dead
    But many living writers hardly write
    The very best of poetry is still within my head
    There's lots of space since dead men have no sight

    You think I cannot make you laugh because I'm short of breath
    But have you seen the state of things today
    The living can't afford to laugh, they're far too scared of death
    For me that dreadful fear has gone away

    Economies are falling fast your jobs are down the pan
    But things like that will never bring me down
    I'm laughing at the living world, and that's because I can
    You living have to look around and frown

    Just lighten up, come die with me, and then you'll see the fun
    That global crises always cause the dead
    The worlds be heading down the tubes at least since man begun
    So lie down dead and laugh with me instead!
