"Identity"
by Joe Rawlins

Identity is a journey not traveled,

A truth yet unrevealed,

Definition so difficult to uncover,

It doesn't quite seem real,

The greatest marvel of those who can find it,

Myth to those who don't,

Like the smallest candle to ever be lit,

Darkness to those who won't...

"An Ode to STAR WARS-(A Slam to SPACEBALLS)"
by Joe Rawlins (aka the Star Wars Man)

Vader, Luke and Boba Fett,

Yoda's the best of heroes yet,

Lord Helmet is a li'l lad,

The plot to Spaceballs is truly sad,

Leia's hair is quite a style,

To be admired by a mile,

Only LOSERS point and make fun,

Of that style with the buns!

"Try not," do what must be done,

Jedi have no time for their fun!

The "Schwartz": A stupid word by far,

Was inspired while in a bar,

Ewoks living in the trees,

Wookiees also dwell in these,

"Barf" should not have been the name picked,

The word should be the TITLE of the flick!

The Falcon can fly point five,

Past lightspeed....Somethin' that rhymes with five!

Winnebago's do not have wings,

They'd fly like stupid things!

Harrison Ford, he's a STUD,

Plays Han Solo: Chewie's bud!

Who's the guy who as Lonestar plays?

Didn't I see him in "Independence Day"?

That Mark Hamill, He's the man,

He's Skywalker, I'm his fan!

For this hero there is no match!

Alone he's better than Spaceballs trash!

I just love that Leia gal,

I'd pay BIG to be her pal!

I don't care what Mel Brooks thinks!

I hate those stupid little "Dinks"!

Carrie Fisher's Leia's real name

"A New Hope" was her claim to fame,

She was married to Paul Simon,

They're hist'ry now, Good timin'!

'Cause youth might be my major flaw,

But she's the greatest I ever saw.

And so ends this creative poem,

"SPACEBALLS" spells out ex-treme boredom!
