Here I Type With Some Hype!

The cat has fallen for it a time or two, so it's not just a human view. Or maybe it is and the cat was just listening to Pat while I took a whiz. That is neither here nor there. Let's get all hyped up at our lair.

Hyper is not the word.
That can be absurd.
Kids running to and fro.
The cat just wants them to go.

Hype it is today.
About what may.
Like that movie or book,
Or some other thing at your nook.

Humans make everything grand.
Like it will be the best across the land.
They hype it up every day.
Whether it comes out tomorrow or next May.

To them, hype fits the bill.
Hype beats nil.
If they could make it a pill,
Glee in all they could fill.

And then the day comes.
They stop flapping their gums.
The hype train has come into the station.
Hype takes a little vacation.

They watch, they read, they do whatever.
They expect it to be a miracle endeavor.
Whoopsy, it sucks.
Go feed the ducks.

It was only okay.
Damn, what they say.
This wasn't that good.
Sue them we should.

It was pretty good.
But improve they could.
What was with the hype,
From Twitter to Skype?

It was great.
A hype worthy trait.
Err umm, maybe not.
But I liked it a lot.

The hype killed it.
Made it seem more like umm shit.
Because you made it into the best ever.
Ruined your own enjoyment with such an endeavor.

Ever hype something so much that you kind of lost touch? That it turned out to be crap because you fell for the hype trap? Oh what hyping things can do. But we know it's nothing new. Tomorrow there will be something new to hype up. Like the hype of a butt to a pup. Now I will go roll in the grass and not hype my little rhyming ass.

Fill your rummer, get drunk all summer.
