The list is out of the things we fear most…

And not on the list is a scary ghost.

“Sleep” made its debut, which seems a bit odd

And also “kayaks” were given the nod.

But the premier phobia is hands down

Anything that has to do with a clown.

Shocking to think of it in these bald terms

But there’s a pretty good chance these old worms

Will square off again in the election

And that is just so far from perfection…

Biden should give Trump a pardon next fall

And in exchange neither would run at all.

She said that family is all that matters

Yet seems happy to leave it in tatters

As her husband says he’s calling it quits.

Who can blame him given her crazy fits?

He’s only trying to keep himself sane…

How I wish we all could board the same train.

Among all the shocking things that he did

Was when he wanted a US Navy ship hid.

Trump barred our own sailors from being in sight

For fear that their presence at his speech just might

Be too much for his fragile ego to take

Any symbol of courage would just make him break.

The Wall Street Journal is a great news source.

So when it comes time for it to endorse

A candidate in any given race

You’d hope that it would at least have the grace

To call out issues that are the most real…

And in Arizona schools aren’t the deal.

Space Invaders has come blasting to life,

With the hope of avoiding future strife!

Science fiction is now becoming real

And it truly is a very cool deal.

Asteroid defenses are put in place

Which may one day save the human race…

Hard to imagine that this turns out well

For Russia’s attempt to create groundswell

In the invasion of its neighbor Ukraine

Where it has inflicted all sorts of pain.

Think these men will be very inspired

To do the fighting that’ll be required…?

It sucks enough when you wait for the bus
With all the delays and general fuss.
But now some inspired city planner
Has added torture of a new manner…
Contributing to the stress of the place
We’ll also have flies buzzing in our face!

Welcome to the newest innovation…

Helping bachelorettes with a libation!

Every passing stranger can join the fun

Helping the bride on her last single run.

Who says tech can’t help make your life better!

Or does this lead to a scarlet letter…?

A funny thing happened on the way to Kiev

Putin called up more soldiers who chose to leave.

It’s not a good sign when a dictator

Sees so many minions go turn traitor.

But the chilling result may be a bitch…

A twitchy finger on the nuclear switch.
