SHOOP DU JOUR


A young lady had to endure
A lad’s talk of songs deemed obscure:
"My taste is so advanced
That, over in France,
They call it La Musique du Futur".

GEEK CHIC


Steve Urkel would snap his suspenders
If he knew that folks of both genders
Were recycling his style
If he were an aedile
He might fine these repeat offenders

INTERNAL DREAD


While listening to Simply Red,
A guy worried about his street cred
He cried “Mum! Need a favour!”
So she took her shaver
And removed hair from half of his head

THE HIPSTER HIPSTER SHAKE


A lass was attempting to make
A kale and kombucha thick shake
When she added, not sparsely,
What looked like dried parsley
It solidified into space cake

HEINIE KEN


His penchant for microbrewed beer
Left this young hipster lad without cheer.
His black jeans got too tight,
They no longer sat right,
And eventually split down the rear.

LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT

This hipster lad does not make passes
At girls who do not wear glasses.
Be they clear or horn-rimmed,
Ray Bans tinted or dimmed,
They’re the first thing he looks for on lasses

ACCIDENTAL AS ANYTHING


While eating some twelve-dollar lentils
At an organic place near Grand Central
A bowtie-sporting dude
Splashed his beard with his food
His reaction? He simply went mental.

YOU OUGHTA KNOW


Most hipsters would rather forget
That the passé lass Ms Morissette
Wrote a song once iconic
About things ironic
The link probably makes them fret

A CAPELLA - ELLA- ELLA


A pale girl by the name of Bella
Felt overlooked down at Coachella
She took off her boot,
Used it to strum her lute,
And played a version of “Umbrella”

NO REAR GEAR CHEER


While riding around in Poughkeepsie
On his teal-and-chartreuse-coloured fixie
A lad overtakes
A bike that has brakes
And smugly hums tunes by The Pixies

EVERYBODY BERTS

A lad wears his checked flannel shirt
To compose a new song in his yurt
The piece for ukelele
That he works on daily
Is called Ode to Ernie and Bert

YOGA, GIRL!

In yoga class, trying not to spew
While the downward dog made her face blue
This lass got a fright
Thinking of her wild night
And the large sum of shots she did do

WORDS OF WORN-ING


A jeweler decided to dabble
In using letters from Scrabble
To create many things
Like pendants and rings
Worn together, they look like mere babble

EQUILATERAL INK



Pythagoras surely would sigh
If he found out that many a guy
Get triangle tattoos
In transparent hues
His malaise would no doubt equal pi

THE IN-CIDER

At his mate’s, while watching Knight Rider,
And drinking imported pear cider
A lad scoffs at his friend’s
Very bourgeois bookends
But admires his volumes on eiders

THE JA-NE TRAIN


A lass from New Jersey named Jane
Felt her love for her town start to wain
Though her folks disapproved,
To Brooklyn she moved,
Now she’s sporting brogues on the J train.

VEGAN MEEGAN


There is a young lass named Meegan
Who decided to become a vegan.
She has researched so much,
And her knowledge is such
That she's now quite the food Ivy-League-an!

COSBY SWEATER


A dude thought it couldn’t get better
Than to wear his new Cosby sweater
To walk his girlfriend’s dog
In the fresh morning fog
Now he’s wetter than the Irish Setter
