In Preparation for my Family 2 party 2morrow night I decided to write 2 poems.
Two Love
2day is the day 2 celebrate all 2s
I’m writing a poem, you can 2 if you choose
2morrow’s 2 late, 2sday is here
So go 2t your 2ba 2 toast this great year
It’s the 2nd month and 22nd day
Of 2022 and it’s time 2 play
Do things all2gether silly or witty
Like Catch 22 from this silly ditty
It’s Margarita Day 2, so go grab a drink
Let’s find our 2 Love or get help with a link
Carpe Dee
The second poem is one where I started with an existing song and rewrote the lyrics. The original lyrics are from Jay-Z’s 22 Two’s. I’ll refrain from doing an imitation of Jay-Z in CarpeDee attire (though that might be fun, come to think of it..)
My changes are in caps:
Too many DO GOODERS MARG DRINKIN’, and too many NERDIES on a mission
Doin’ our best CARPE-DEE rendition
Too many LOUD CELEBRATORS, I got my suspicions
That you’re just a fish in a pool of sharks PEOPLE, listen
Too many FLAMINGOS wanna be DOVES, so if you a BIRD
I’ma call you a BIRD, too many BIRDS CAN’T FLY
Too many GOODIES give these NEGGIES too many chances
Too many WINERS wannabe lovers don’t know what romance is
Too many PSEUDOHEROES TRYIN’ too many sexual DANCES
No question, CARPE-DEE got too many answers
I been around this block, too many times
Rocked, too many rhymes, MOCKED, too many MIMES, too
To all my FOLLOWERS it ain’t too late to come together
Cause too much JOY and too much love, equal forever
I don’t follow any guidelines cause too many NERDIES ride mine
So I change JAY-Zs every two rhymes, ha, what the HECK
That’s twenty two too’s for y’all SUPERNERDOS out there, YAKNOWWHATIMEAN?
Shall I continue? Check it out, what?
