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…

Kiteships

This concept has long been batting around

But never was able to gain much ground.

Early tests showed that they worked pretty well

But only when weather was really swell.

That’s not so often across the great seas

But it sure would be great to harness the breeze.

Silence is Deafening

When good people do nothing, evil thrives

And those they enable sharpen their knives.

Perhaps it’s a stretch to call these folks “good,”

Certainly now as we see where they stood,

And know that they feared for our Republic

But wouldn’t admit it out in public.

Why call Mark…?!

For at least a moment he saw the light

And knew very well that this was not right.

But Junior showed what his real colors are…

It’s yellow that shines the brightest by far.

He wouldn’t call his dad, not with this advice.

Nope, the cost of truth was too high a price.

Democracy Demolished

I do fear things are gonna get much worse

While Donnie and team set up a curse

That casts a spell on too many people

And forces truth to march up a steep hill.

Did the dems cause it with a plan from their shelf?

Or is this self-serving freak just out for himself?

Not so Foxy

Hard to imagine it’s out of the blue

For a veteran like Chris to say “Me too!”

And jump from the network of the far right

Just as other reporters have seen the light.

But if he’s opposed to these biased views

Then I’m afraid he’s in for some bad news.

Illegal Emigration

I’m not a huge fan of Governor Ron

And there are better things to spend money on.

But damn this is funny, let’s give him that

Even if he looks like a spoiled brat.

Sending illegals to Barack and Joe

Would be an amusing act in the show.

Resident alarm

The only thing that is more outrageous,

And very far from being courageous,

Than blocking rights of citizens to vote

Is giving folks that right straight off the boat!

Only our citizens should have a voice

In casting ballots for leadership choice.

Virtually ridiculous

I’m sure that I’m old and just don’t get it

Which is fine by me, since this? Forget it!

Imagine spending thousands of dollars

On virtual jewelry and fur collars…

I’m hard-pressed to think of something more lame.

Is this not just a simple con game?

DumbX

When this mumbo jumbo makes its escape

From Ivory Towers and the elite liberal tape

And is heard by folks whom it addresses

These dumb made-up words have no successes.

Add “womyn” and “herstory” to the list!

Moralistic drama makes people pissed.

True that

The echo chamber may be the issue!

Things that are said – not worth toilet tissue –

On these cable programs, both left and right,

Are then repeated and cause a big fight.

So few people watch these terrible shows

Let their comments slip into silent death throes.
