"spiffy" poems - Hello Poetry

Pen to card choosing words slow Sentiments of love, ease and flow Driving outside, cloudy, light showers Pull into the store, ordering flowers All dressed up, looking spiffy Hold on tight, be there in a jiffy Roses on the left, a gift on the right Knock on the door, breathless with excite As the door opened, time stopped Moment like this can't be topped Ravishing, classy, extremely beautiful A hug, a kiss, a smile, good feelings plentiful You deserve it all, from here to the moon Romance you read about, make you swoon Clink our glasses, savor the wine Hold on to this memory, sweet valentine

Well hey babe, don't you look cool You've got your spiffy clothes, Your e-cigar, and you're good to go Hey babe, you look so great You've got on those ridiculous mom jeans, And you're running on fumes Hey babe, looking reeeeaaaal good, Your hybrid can't go up hills but, "Hey, I'm saving the earth!" You can't keep up with these Hipster habits Tricks are meant for kids you, Silly rabbit You can't save the world, You're just a silly girl, Your life is not a trend. Your cat pics are going viral You've built a record player, And you've turned tumblr into a bible There are these clear men-wear inspired oxfords that you've "Gotta have!" Shopping at goodwill can only get you so far, Especially when you filled yourself with angst that's outdated. It's not even like you're brooding in a bar You can't keep up with these Hipster habits Tricks are meant for kids you, Silly rabbit You can't save the world, You're just a silly girl, Your life is not a trend. And you could write me a strongly worded letter, but don't make any mistakes dear, because your typewriter's not that clever. I'm reading articles about appropriation, And learning how to join the "body posi nation" I dyed my hair white And my paelo weight watchers points are out of sight! Your Essie polish doesn't match your insta feed, Oh look you've made a hipster out of me. We can't keep up with these Hipster habits Tricks are meant for kids you, Silly rabbit We can't save the world, We're just a silly girls, Our lives are not a trend.

He sat on the old board fence, his chair of state All spiffy in his Sunday-pressed khakis Though he wasn't much for going to church And his Other Hat, still a farmer’s hat With his teeth and his workworn, sunburnt hand (The other hand somehow mislaid in France) He played the paper and ‘baccy and tag Into a censer of sacred sweet smoke And all us little boys watched him in awe And hoped for the bag with its little string draw

*I love peach schnapps on a cool front porch , with a touch of November wind , wrapped up in my old brown scarf I go for Jaegermeister when I'm a bit peaked , a few Texas shots are just what the patient needed I lean to whiskey when it's bitter cold and 'brisky' , a spiffy sock cap with a hot toddy or two work right nifty* ...

If I had a cape I’d have escapades My spiffy metal suit Would be in pursuit I’d write wrongs in bulk With the build of the hulk I’d echo-locate Every reprobate A transgendered Wonder I’d end their plunder Return the cash In a flash End the pain We sustain Save the world As it whorled Super-Duper Super trouper Maxi-Man!
