Sometimes writing nonsense can be very therapeutic... ...even in the middle of the night; actually, maybe particularly so. ☻

Downtown Brown and Others…

Hey Downtown Brown
From the other side of town
Don’t wear your crown
It’ll only make you frown
 
Hey Turnpike Mike
You’d better hang on to your bike
You’re way too high on the pike
You’ll soon be taking a hike
 
Hey Boozy Suzy
You’re a bit of a floozy
After last night’s doozy
You cannot be too choosy
 
Hey Bruce the goose
You’ve got to get off the juice
You’re as tight as a noose
You have just got to let loose
 
Hey Mr. Duffy
You think you’re a toughie
Your eyes are all puffy
You’re in such a huffy
 
Hey Mr. Cool
So you know how to play pool
Get yourself back into school
Before you’re more of a fool
 
Hey Senator Moore
You’re an incredible bore
All you do is sleep and snore
Let me show you the door
 
Hey Kroeker the broker
You’re a smoker and a toker
You’re playing way too much poker
You’re nothing but a joker
 
Hey Princess Tess
Go put on your sweetest dress
I’ll show you how to impress
Then we’ll go and meet the press

I believe I spotted some likely characters… Do I know any of them?

I really love it when people play with words and rhymes and don't have any particular agenda in doing so. Very entertaining and amusing.

Hey Regis with the indomitable hat,
You ride your bike round the mountain,
Give blood an awfully lot,
Don't know exactly but bet you have a cat,
But your life surely ain't boring,
Better than having a job in flooring...-e-

...enjoyed your amphigourie versification...Regis...
The light...rhythmical...richly- rhymed...elegantly expressed wording...
depicting peculiar characters...giving them the appearance of good
sense...pretending good poetry...while in reality meaning...🎃
.....whate'er!

Hey is it a French way to ridicule certain namby-pamby poets?
