Why

If you don’t bother to take the time,
To express your thoughts in rhyme,
The chances are awfully good,
You’ve not thought as much as you should.
Rhymes are fun and set the stage right,
Like lovers undressing before a fight…

Second… thoughts?

The Second Amendment guarantees rights.

And do guns kill people? No! That just bites.

So it does seem just a little bit odd

That when it comes to this NRA god

No guns are allowed… It’s all very strange!

They have different rules for when they’re in range.

The problem it seems has something to do

With the small fact that yoga is Hindu…

So Satan has bound himself to that faith

And is now using Barbie as a wraith!

The whole thing sure does not seem very Zen,

Oh by the way, has anyone seen Ken…?

Embarrassing already, now…

For those who are old enough to recall

This sucks for the guy who can see through a wall.

Telephone booths are where Clark Kent would go

To change into tights so no one would know

That he was Superman! But now he’s estranged…

I mean, where’s a guy supposed to get changed?!

Uh, really?

Hard to imagine he’s lost any sleep

And I doubt very much he’s counting sheep.

You can’t make the appointments that he did

Then worry the outcomes will make you skid.

Unless, of course, he really is that thick,

Not acting the part of an impulsive tick.

LOL… Putin Plays 3D Chess

I mean, you can’t help but have a small laugh

‘Cuz there’s no doubt that on Putin’s behalf

This list was published with the strong intent

Of fueling American discontent.

The Left will shout “See!” while the Right will shrug,

And Putin keeps dealing his deadly drug.

Monkey see, monkey do

A new virus scare to keep us awake
And give the news cycle something to make
Us all feel once again like we must panic
Or think of those who do as crazy manic.
For sure it will soon be politicized
And no matter your take you’ll be criticized…!

So what great moralists are blind to see
That some abortions are necessary?
And by what moral code is it absolute
That all abortions are beyond dispute?
It’s a complex issue with consequence,
Both sides need compassion in their defense.

…and market sense

I can’t say I agree with this outcome

And it frankly strikes me as kind of dumb.

Sure I like equal pay for equal work

But value is not just a random quirk.

Fans pay money for what they want to see!

Should equal “work” in art be paid equally?

Oh! Well in that case…

It baffles the mind that people still listen
To the loud claims that are always missin’
Anything of substance except for that
Which will pour more fluid into the vat
Of greed and attention that these two crave
And then just re-enforce how they behave.

Hate Replacement Theory

As far as theories go this one is rich…
See, scheming people are doing things which
Are designed to poison the master race
And the right believes that it’s a disgrace!
Yes there are disturbing allusions here…
The right should take care to make themselves clear.
