The headlines scream that more help is needed

But one of those needs seems to go unheeded.

More agents are assigned to stem the flow

But what agents need is somewhere to go

Where they can find relief from the stress.

More chaplains are needed to fix this mess.

Social media sorta seems like the tide

It’s gonna rise, and there’s nowhere to hide.

Hard to imagine these kids won’t discover

Some crafty way for them to recover

Access to the joy of their favorite site

Fueled by the sense it’s a human right.

I find the dynamic a little strange

When you’re in a group text that you want to change.

How you got in it you’re not fully sure

At one time it felt like it might be a cure.

But then whoa what’s this, they texted what?!

Will they notice if you make a clean cut…?

It took 200 years to get it built

Then fire consumed it, down to the hilt.

Bringing it back to its former glory

Was core to France’s cultural story.

In only 5 years they got the job done

Merveilleux! I say, they hit a home run!

I get that this won’t be everyone’s thing

But “the word of the year” makes my heart sing!

The excitement and anticipation…

Just one chosen from all of creation.

So what was the winner that came in first?

Kakistocracy, the rule of the worst…

Nature continues to surprise us

And can offer glimpses that advise us

On how to lead a long and full life.

Seems that if you happen to be a wife

Don’t get bogged down with only one mate

If the first few die get out there and date!

She led a fast life, sped by in a blur
And I can’t help but wonder, did it occur
To her that she was a trailblazer or not?
I bet she was just giving life her best shot.
She pursued her goals since she was a kid
All she wanted to do was win and she did.

It’s exhausting, but I guess effective?

The reason why he’s not selective

With the first people that he chooses

Is because he wants the yuk that oozes

From all of these slimeballs to be in view

So that his next choices will glide right through!

I’ve been in finance for quite a long time

And have seen my share of both luck and crime.

It’s stressful work but as I often say

It’s not like our lives are at stake, okay?

Then whoa! Here comes this disgraced tycoon

And totally ruins that safe cocoon…

Hypocrisy? Yes! A bit outrageous.

But some things in life are quite contagious…

People will argue that this pardon shows

The system was rigged when it was Joe’s.

But when winners flaunt their lawless extremes

Well, you reap what you sow, is how it seems.
