"Things to be angry about": Google Poetry

Saw this at An Apostate's Chapel, and I loved it, so I'm doing my own version. The concept: Compose a poem, a more or less coherent one, using search terms that people used to arrive at your blog. It's an entertainingly eerie exercise, and while I am generally a suck poet, I think that mine freakishly captures the essence, both of my blog and of my current mental and emotional state.

I did mine as a set of quasi-haikus. And yes, the title is also a search term that was used to find my blog. (No images for this one, btw; I want the images of the poem to speak for themselves, or some such poetry blather.) Enjoy -- and if you're inspired to do your own, please feel free to post the link in the comments!

deliberately fucking with me weird shit coincidence

has barack obama voted for same sex marriage
Why does Barack Obama feel wrong to me?

he spanked her and then started to lick her pussy

"Flintstones having sex." Did I miss that post?

And "simpsons make sex look like church." Does that mean some people are bored with sex, or that they get really excited about church?

I love it! I made three small poems out of some of mine:
