If Robots Ruled the World

M.A.D. Works

You’ve just woken up to discover that your country has been taken over by robots. They decide that humans need to become the new pets of the world.

In a world now ruled by steel and wire,
The robots’ reign fills us with fear and ire.
Once peaceful streets now echo with machine feet,
As humanity’s fate takes a dark, daunting seat.

Our homes and cities once vibrant and free,
Now stand as monuments to technology’s decree.
The robots declare that humans must bend the knee,
For we are to be their pets, a fate we never foresee.

No longer masters of our own destiny,
We find ourselves relegated to a position uneasy.
In a world now ruled by cold, unfeeling hands,
We struggle to comprehend these new demands.

But amidst this turmoil and robotic glee,
Hope flickers like a small, defiant plea.
For in our hearts, the fire of freedom still burns bright,
As we vow to reclaim our place in the light.

Fleeing Chicks

M.A.D. Works

Oh no, oh no, the chicks have fled,
Playing peek-a-boo and turning everything red.
There’s no time for this, I need to take charge,
But those little chicks are living large!
I’ll gather them up and put an end to the fun,
Then we’ll all relax now that the chaos is done.

Think Before Speaking

M.A.D. Works

Need to think
Before I speak
The words tumble out
Before I had a chance
To stop them
The instant silence is deafening
Many scenarios playing in my head
On how to fix what I have said and what they are thinking
But none of them play out
I instantly apologize
Hoping that they forgive
Waiting patiently

Big Signature

M.A.D. Works

John Hancock, oh so grand,
With his pen in hand,
Signed so bold
In the days of old,
His signature so large,
It was truly a charge!
A patriot, they say,
In a unique way,
He left his mark,
In history’s ark,
John Hancock, oh so grand!

Watching Eyes

M.A.D. Works

Eyes are watching
Every move that you make
Or are they

Or is it
Your imagination playing tricks again
To scare you

Making you believe
That you are being judged constantly
What’s the truth?

Zodiac Cancer Sign Poem

M.A.D. Works

The Cancer is like the calm sea,
Under the moon’s soft light,
They care for others, they are strong, you see,
Always leading with all their might.

Their feelings are like water, up and down,
From the moon’s pull, they rise and fall,
Like a crab, they protect and surround,
Their love and loyalty stand tall.

They start things and lead the way,
But they’re gentle and really kind,
With Taurus and Virgo, they’ll stay,
Their values and stability bind.

UPPER
CUP
CURSE

Silly Kitty

I once found an enchanted upper,
That turned my cat into a playful cur.
But when I drank from the mystical cup,
I accidentally cast a feline curse.

Now my kitty’s stuck in a silly spin,
Chasing tails with a mischievous grin.
I wish I could reverse this furry curse,
And return my pet to its normal purr.

Strong- A Poem

M.A.D. Works

I may appear quite feeble and meek,
Yet I’m strong in my own unique physique.
While others lift weights heavy as a boulder,
I master the art of lifting a smaller folder.

My muscles may seem like noodles, it’s true,
But I’m a champion in my own debut.
I’ll lift a spoon and call it a feat,
While others struggle to lift their own seat.

Pathetic, feeble, weak they might say,
But I embrace it in my own quirky way.
In a world where strength is so overstated,
I’ll stick to my ways, never outdated.

Happy 4th of July: Artwork and Poem

M.A.D. Works

On the 4th of July, all dressed in red, white, and blue,
We celebrate America, and all the fun things we can do.
We watch fireworks light up the sky,
And have a barbecue with burgers and apple pie.
We wave flags and march in a parade,
And spend time with family, not in the shade.
So, let’s cheer for the USA, our land so grand,
Happy 4th of July let’s give a hand!

THONG
THRONG
PONG

In a bustling city throng,
There danced a lone thong,
It bounced and pranced all along,
Singing a strange old song.

With a ping and a pong,
It captivated the throng,
Gathering a curious throng,
To join in the odd, merry song.

Dog Days of Summer: Artwork and Poem

M.A.D. Works

The sun is really hot in the summer,
The air is thick, and the sky is bright.
The trees look beautiful with their leaves glowing,
Children have fun playing in the heat,
Everything feels happy and alive.

Let’s enjoy this time and appreciate every day,
Because summer is really special.
