NERD PUNX POEM

John Connor
versus
Skynet

Rioting with rough necks
balled fists
pose minor threats
Staring down the barrel
Our glory is
Ramshackled

RoboCop
versus
OCP

Kettles aren't just for brewing
Tea
Brewing up
Mischief
Black flags flying
F
R
E
E

ThunderCats
versus
Mumm-Ra

DON'T MOVE!
STAY
WHERE
YOU
ARE!
Phasers set to
Stun
Whatever you do
Don't
R
U
N

Ash Ketchum
versus
Team Rocket

Resistance is futile
Nothing we do
can stop it
Rancid politics
Projectile vomit
People will always
play second fiddle
to profit

Daniel LaRusso
versus
Kobra Kai

Don't fear
the darkside
Goonies
Never say
Die
Do or do not
There
is
NO
T
R
Y

The Rebel Alliance
versus
The Galactic Empire

Let's all fuck it off
Set the world
on fire
Burn it down
Start again from scratch
Dragged
through the mire
A Phoenix
from ash

The Power Rangers
versus
Lord Zedd

No Gods
No Masters
No Cameron
No Clegg
Let's all take our
Chances on
Anarchy
Instead

  1. I love this. So much. The flow to it is perfect--not something everyone achieves with this particular format--and it's funny and moving at the same time. You should do more of this. I want more!!!
