The Diss is Real

TS has become my favorite rock star.

Her songs are great and oh man she’s gone far.

But here’s the most important thing to me –

She and I share a view others don’t see.

Kim is a joke! How’d this ever unfold?

She’s a story that never should have been told.

How to Houdini

There’s little that is more tedious than

Being stuck in a conversation when

You realize it’s among the most boring

You’ve ever had! So before you start snoring

You need a good clever way to get out

Without them knowing what it’s all about.

WhyWork

This is the guy who made it all happen

Building huge hype, but hiding the gap in

The reality of the business’s health

And his massive collection of personal wealth.

Let him have it if he wants it all back

And can find investors who aren’t on crack.

Separate but Unequal

Salary discussions can be pretty tough

No matter the industry, they are rough.

Let’s get to equal pay for equal work…

It doesn’t really seem all that berserk.

Yes, market demand will play a big part

But these gaps are too crazy a place to start.

Take the Win

A stunning reversal in murder rates

Could maybe impact the political fates

Of Donnie and Joe and all their cronies

Riding wobbly atop their ponies…

Not sure the president can take credit

But had it been worse they’d say he led it.

Stairway to Heaven

This hopeful headline would seem to suggest

That Preachers one day were getting no rest…

Because of their reverence they’d earned great fame!

Instead it turns out that was the same

As rock stars today was their big ‘ole head…

They partied too hard and got women in bed.

To Each Their Own

When it comes to clothes that are rarely seen

(At least not during the normal routine)

I wonder what drives the apparent need

To spend so lavishly. What is the creed

That makes frivolous purchases okay

When true needs like boats are just pushed away?!

Reap What You Sow

Rarely does consequence catch up to Trump
(Because that’s for losers and he’s no chump)
So it would be priceless if in this case
His actions came back with a smack in the face.
Supreme Court appointments and the groping…
Women’s rights as his downfall? Here’s to hoping!

Until Proven Guilty

Trump’s legal tactics have been astounding.

And their success is really confounding.

It’s a horse race to see which comes in first

Some juries’ decisions or else the worst…

A Trump victory in the next election

And then pardons galore, self protection.
