Redneck Man

My house and yard are in a mess,
I’m somewhat lazy, I confess,
I throw around my dirty clothes,
Now, where’s my socks? – God only knows!
I mow my grass just once a year,
I’d rather sit and drink a beer,
Upon the deck is where I’ll be,
Surrounded by so much debris.
I shower only when I must,
And some tell me that I disgust,
But I’m as happy as can be,
Just me and all my little fleas.
Please come around and visit me,
I’ll tidy up to some degree,
But be prepared for who I am,
I’m just another redneck man.

Such a dirty perspective on a redneck man.... I agree with some of it. I can't help but laugh though. I know some people that r just like this and when I read this poem I can't help but think about them and laugh too. I my self have a little red neck in me but not to this degree. I loved this poem David and I wanted to thank you for reading my poem " A Selfish Man". I wanted to tell you that I wrote that a while ago and then returned to it and added to it. Those days are actually done with now, but thank you for your kind words and thoughtfulness. I would e-mail you but I'm not a current writer at this time. Sorry I took up so much space and I hope to have my dues current soon. Thanks for the good writes.

Dave, I Just finished watching the NASCAR race and came across this poem. I see the guy with the beer in the photo- a Bud. Dale didn't win this one - Kyle BUSCH did. Good one. Greg Kis

Great write, David! I couldn't help but picture Jeff Foxworthy while reading this. He's quite hilarious as far as rednecks go. Heh.

LOL!!! What a hilarious poem! So cute!! I laughed so hard, but it was really the name of the poem that reeled me into this page. I wondered where you would take us with that title. I was NOT disappointed!! I'm still smiling!

This is another grat one, you seem to have been writing a lot lately. Anyway, Mom just got home so I have to go, see you around*waves*, but I do have just one question, though, what does it mean when you call someone a redneck? I'v never quite gotten that.

I do like the humour in this, it skips along well.
However, I must admit that I don't know what a redneck is. He sounds more like what we would call a slob.
One critique is that the third stanza falters when you try to rhyme bee with fleas. to my ear it just does not make it.

Hilarious, David and it was great fun to read. I like the jaunting speed and style to the piece. It really raced along and I chuckled with every line. Great job.

This is an awesome poem. I can never find my socks either. I think my dog gets ahold of them and hide them. I'm kind of a redneck to. Except I have to keep my room clean because if I don't my step dad will yell at me. I really enjoyed the poem. Keep up the good work. :)
