How’dya make the exceptional endure

Or regenerate that sense of allure

When you’ve been together for oh-so-long

And you want to keep the relationship strong?

Well, put yourself out there and try new stuff!

(And it never hurts to be in the buff…)

However much it would be fun to think

That this action signals we’re on the brink

Of having more adults in the room

Who are intent on being able to groom

A sense of duty to work together

That will change as fast as the weather.

We of course can debate what normal means

And argue thoughtfully about vaccines

But that’s not what is happening today

Instead it seems that it’s become okay

To say and do the most horrible things

People think it’s fine, and that is what stings.

Somehow it comes as no big surprise
That once you are able to analyze
The inner layout of RFK’s head
What you will find is a worm that is dead.
And there may be other dead things up there…
But at least it’s more than angry hot air.

Caramel covered popcorn, what a treat!

So if it’s something that you like to eat

But feel too guilty because of its name

(Problematic at best in today’s game)

Then this is the alternative for you…

More sensitive labels to the rescue!

I’m always a sucker for this type of thing

Celebrating poetry makes my heart sing.

I love the idea that it can give hope

And perhaps show a way to help us all cope.

Writing rhymes creates a type of contract

And gives comfort in its implicit pact.

This fabulous leader now on the scene

Is establishing herself as the queen

Of thoughtful discourse and conversation

To further strengthen our lovely nation.

Now she’s giving us another fine smooch

By suggesting she kill the president’s pooch.

It certainly comes as no huge surprise

That Trump’s accountants would try to devise

A scheme to misrepresent all the facts

And deceive investors among other acts

To enrich Trump’s cronies using pure fraud

Because the business itself is badly flawed.

What a weird turn for the new GOP

When one of its bright stars can hardly see

The very behaviors he claims to hate

Are now things he’s going to legislate!

All those “elites” with their controlling voice…

To fix that he’ll limit consumer choice.

Of course it’s a controversial measure

And Biden hopes it’s political treasure.

He’s struggling with the young people’s vote

And thinks this might be something they note.

That aside it’s good policy to me…

And 70 percent of adults agree.
