Is that really helpful?

No surprise with how this has unfolded

Elon has weighed in and he has scolded

Everyone everywhere, liberals at fault!

Did he give any thought to the assault

On productive discourse Scott Adams made

When he said all white folk should be afraid?

What a disgrace

Not to belabor it but this is nuts…

Rupert Murdoch is certainly no putz.

No, in fact it’s far more evil than that

And is not part of a “what about” spat.

A major news outlet espoused these lies

Knowing it could cause our nation’s demise.

Who gets us for the weekend?

Hot off her own, she now wants another…

Marjorie is on a mission to smother

The things that make a democracy work

As she dances her tyrannical twerk.

She’s a true patriot and so much more!

Who else would advocate for civil war?

Double double toil and trouble

Hard to believe it gets better than this…

All of us satirists are in sheer bliss.

Not because he should be absolved from jail

But because of the crazy epic scale

Of luck that makes Trump politically rich…

The jury indicting him is led by a witch!

Nothing moo here

So all the big dairy guys had a fit…

“You can’t call it milk if no milk’s in it!”

But they weren’t aware of what’s going down

In this case it’s a verb and not a noun…

To milk means exploit as much as you can

And now they’re allowed to advance the plan.

We’ll see

Apparently the line that they now use

Is that OF COURSE Donald Trump did not lose,

But, still, perhaps it’s now about the time

That MAGA faithful continue their climb

With a new leader to carry the torch

And new woke targets that they want to scorch.

Depends on the dress

Love thy neighbor as thyself – what a good rule!

Especially in the chaos of a school.

But this district didn’t think it okay

When a boy wore a dress to class one day.

An abomination…?! I couldn’t care less…

Unless, of course, it was a hideous dress.

Seems avoidable

I love Spain and the Spanish, I sure do

They’re magnificent folks, I assure you.

But from time to time they might just lose sight

Of priorities, and doing things right.

Cerveza, jamon and a siesta…

Sometimes these things will come back and test ya.

And THIS Little Piggy…

Most eyes and concern are directed South

Political bait in the fish’s mouth.

Our porous border lets illegals in!

All those piggy moochers, it’s just a sin…

But wait! What’s this? A new danger up North?!

DC is asleep as pigs go back and forth…

Fine According to Whom?

Perspective can be quite the funny thing!

I mean, it’s not that I feel I must cling

To old fashioned ways of crafting a trade

But I do wonder if poetry’s made

By software and bots with no cognition

Can it address the human condition?
