Sorry if some of these are duplicates, but I just found a few I may have left out:

Search of Lost Proust

I summon up remembrance of things past. . .
But might have read Guermantes Way too fast.


Shropshire Scandal

The time you won your town the race
Your pee revealed a steroid trace.


Gerard's Lament

The world is charged with the grandeur of God,
and I forgot my credit card!



Ode to a Nightingale

My heart aches and a drowsy numbness pains
My sense and I am left with shit for brains.


Death of a Hired Man

Mary sat musing on the lamp-flame at the table
As Silas passed away behind the stable.


Christina To Her Children

Remember me when I am gone away,
Or when I'm back there will be hell to pay.


Bard at the Door

When to the sessions of sweet silent thought
Someone brings his bongos, I'm distraught.


Save the Environment

The poetry of earth is never dead...
but sometimes clings to life by the thinnest thread.
