Jeff Burkhart’s “Rhyme and Reason”: Pun-zi Scheme

February 12, 2017 by Jeff Burkhart Leave a Comment

Pub Shot

Visionary venturists
Appear from time to time
With innovations loved by all
That change the paradigm

E-lec-tric-it-y and such
Air flight, assembly lines
Telegraphs and televisions
Come from these great minds

I’ve had some good ideas
And I think that I that I could help
Create a business model
That would get 5 stars on YELP

Poems that tell the people how
To think, and feel and do
Written by a stumbling clod
That doesn’t have a clue

Reach inside your purse or wallet
Tell your friends and Mom
Send $10 dollars right away
