It’s all a game

It seems that one key to success can be

The ability to create an alternate reality.

That makes this article particularly scary

Since extremists from both poles can be very

Adept at separating people from what’s real

Which could lead us all into a very bad deal.

Finally!

Perhaps the Dems are seeing the light,

You can’t bring a knife to a gun fight.

Donnie and crew roll dirty and hard

Anything goes, there’re no holds barred.

So good on Biden for this sucker punch!

Go get the thugs and eat their lunch.

Second Anniversary

Two years ago I started this site

Hoping that rhymes very well might

Bring people together with different views

In a healthy forum, not like the news.

We’ve covered topics from dogs to crimes…

And seems to me we STILL need rhymes!

Tee hee

It’s stupidly juvenile but still a delight

To see Donnie lose a meaningless fight.

TV ratings say pretty much close to zero

But for POTUS they’re how you define a hero.

So take THAT you silly Commander in Chief

And go send some tweets to find relief.

Neither snow nor rain…

The postal service, for all its flaws,

Is vital to freedom and to the cause

Of keeping us “one nation… indivisible”

So it really should be inexplicable

These crazy maneuvers to make a fuss

Even gaslighting people to think it’s us!

Hey kid, wanna joke?

Since it’s illegal to gather in groups

Comedians have had to jump thru hoops

To deliver their product to those in need

Of a good laugh to get their mind freed.

Imagine lawless comics down a dark street

Selling jokes to kids to make ends meet…

Honesty

Here’s the thing: what I really can’t stand

Is when people in charge like to demand

That everyone else must follow a rule

But they themselves are too cool for school.

I’m less concerned about the act itself

Than the moral hypocrisy on their shelf.

Great Again?

Even before the hit of the pandemic

Donnie’s plans for creating systemic

Improvement of our financial state

Were going backwards at a steady rate.

On every measure of fiscal hygiene

We are worse off now than in 2016.

Hitting Snooze…?

Known as the city that never sleeps

NYC has an energy that always keeps

People coming from around the globe

To live and work and otherwise probe

The best center of culture on the map!

Let’s hope the city is just taking a nap…

Family Ties

Most families I know have some dysfunction

So no wonder the Trumps are at this junction.

Donnie will have a hissy fit

And go to Twitter to throw a hit.

But sisters sit in a unique place,

It’s hard to respond and save face.
