Another Bierce quote and three poems

“Rubbish ] Boreaplas means  “regions south of the North Pole,” that is all regions.”

As said before, Ambrose Bierce appears to have been very cynical later  in life because he endured both the U.S. Civil War as a soldier and the disintegration of his family. One literary critic said he killed himself in the U.S. southwest, but it is not clear. He may have died of natural causes in Mexico.

 

“Meaning” by yours truly

“Sir, what do you think is the meaning of life?”

“It is rather clear to me the meaning is boobies.”

“Me thinks you have been watching too many tubies.”

“Maybe so, but to me they seem like rubies.”

 

“Pun-tertainment” by yours truly

“Maybe you just need more pun-tertainment. Just pun-lax.”

“But some say I do not take pun seriously enough and are pun-ffended by my  pun-se of humor.”

“That is pun-kay. Everyone has a pun-t of view and their own o-pun-ion.”

“Pun-k you, Doctor.”

 

“Just” by yours truly

“It just doesn’t matter!

It just doesn’t matter!

We ‘ll make your brains splatter.

We’re as mad as the Mad Hatter!”

“Oh.”

“Puns’ lives matter!

Puns’ lives matter!”
