Encountering Big Foot
 

Sam Adams
Was walking
In the Trinity Alps
Of Northern California
When he encountered
The legendary Bigfoot
Who rushed at him
Destroying his camera.

Time Travel Obsession

The mad scientist
Was obsessed with
Developing a time travel machine
He finally perfected it
Went back in time
To kill Hitler
Came back to a strange world.

Disagreement Over Whether Trump is delusional

And Sam Adams
Old friends
Had a minor disagreement
Over whether Trump
Was a fascist dictator
Or just a senile old man
Past his prime time.

Stuck in the Mud
 

Sam Adams
Was walking
In the mountains
When he encountered
A muddy trail
Ending in quicksand
He was stuck there
No one around to rescue him.

WRITE A POEM ABOUT MUD.

Memories of other places
 

I often think back
About the places
I have been
The cities I have lived in
The memories of the past
Coming to my mind
As I grow old
And philosophical
