The man is pregnant
with the dreams and promises
of a city set on fire at night.
Bloated belly salutes gravity
sUrnamed reality.
The family snores on his shoulders
The ghost palm of his children crowd his hands.
Crystal gazing and joyous poisoning
A wrapsody of humanity.
The man is pregnant
With the regrets of his tribe
The cutlass has scarred his palms
Cupping them into a half c
His neck bent in modern obeisance.
Who does he worship
The god of the circus.
His parents are reborn in him.
Live, work, die.
Shouldnβt there be something more.
Sometimes,
secretly,
In the night,
He watches the sky
And allows himself to be a child again
Dreaming of escaping from this prison.
No, heβs not suicidal
Heβs escapist.
Realityβs handle is too hot for him
Or should i say he couldnβt slide into her dmβs.
The man is a corpse,
Visualize a society fed up with itself
A chick half-stuck in itβs shell
And they tell us to smile.

Genesis, the spark of deceit.
The fallacy seems as a key
A tool to escape the heat
The world becomes difficult to see
A veil hangs o'er time.
Darkness takes grasp in the mind
Failure a burden accentuated by fear
Tighter one grows, breaking slowly with every wind.
Weight and pressure, oblivion seems near
Perdition and Turmoil
Barren and scorched is the soil
Nothing left but ash, life unable to grow
No stars, black sky, reality uncoils
The mind, ebbs and flows
Its foundations, tire of its work.
I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.
Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.
Alot of great jokes get posted here! However just because you have a joke, doesn't mean it's a dad joke.
THIS IS NOT ABOUT NSFW, THIS IS ABOUT LONG JOKES, BLONDE JOKES, SEXUAL JOKES, KNOCK KNOCK JOKES, POLITICAL JOKES, ETC BEING POSTED IN A DAD JOKE SUB
Try telling these sexual jokes that get posted here, to your kid and see how your spouse likes it.. if that goes well, Try telling one of your friends kid about your sex life being like Coca cola, first it was normal, than light and now zero , and see if the parents are OK with you telling their kid the "dad joke"
I'm not even referencing the NSFW, I'm saying Dad jokes are corny, and sometimes painful, not sexual
So check out r/jokes for all types of jokes
r/unclejokes for dirty jokes
r/3amjokes for real weird and alot of OC
r/cleandadjokes If your really sick of seeing not dad jokes in r/dadjokes
Punchline !
Edit: this is not a post about NSFW , This is about jokes, knock knock jokes, blonde jokes, political jokes etc being posted in a dad joke sub
Edit 2: don't touch the thermostat
Do your worst!
Ants donβt even have the concept fathers, let alone a good dad joke. Keep r/ants out of my r/dadjokes.
But no, seriously. I understand rule 7 is great to have intelligent discussion, but sometimes it feels like 1 in 10 posts here is someone getting upset about the jokes on this sub. Let the mods deal with it, they regulate the sub.
They were cooked in Greece.
I'm surprised it hasn't decade.
Don't you know a good pun is its own reword?
Two muffins are in an oven, one muffin looks at the other and says "is it just me, or is it hot in here?"
Then the other muffin says "AHH, TALKING MUFFIN!!!"
For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.
I said "hey look, an escaPEA"
No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!
Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies π
It really does, I swear!
And now Iβm cannelloni
Because she wanted to see the task manager.
And boy are my arms legs.
The man is pregnant
with the dreams and promises
of a city set on fire at night.
Bloated belly salutes gravity
surnamed reality.
The family snores on his shoulders
The ghost palms of his children crowd his hands.
Crystal gazing and joyous poisoning
A wrapsody of humanity.
The man is pregnant
With the regrets of his tribe
The cutlass has scarred his palms
Cupping them into a half circle
His neck bent in modern obeisance.
Who does he worship?
The god of the circus.
His parents are reborn in him.
Live, work, die.
Shouldnβt there be something more?
Sometimes,
secretly,
In the night,
He watches the sky
And allows himself to be a child again
Dreaming of escaping from this prison.
No, heβs not suicidal
Heβs escapist.
Realityβs handle is too hot for him
Or should I say he couldnβt slide into her dmβs?
The man is a corpse,
Visualize a society fed up with itself
A chick half-stuck in its shell
And they tell us to smile.
