It’s hard to know with all the hype

From annoying doomsayers, you know the type.

But these guys are working for a real solution

To address the problem of plastic pollution.

And the first step is to get both sides

To see it for themselves in the ocean tides.

These are the issues at the root of the problem
And with our attitudes today we’ll never solve them.
No one wants to learn from what’s being said
Now they tune out or get aggressive instead.
Debate in the same party can’t even start.
“Fall in line or get out” is not very smart.

What will the marketing team do next,

With snazzy imagery and vibrant text?

Here they want to make old beef new!

Which, I suppose, shouldn’t surprise you.

It’s the same story as starting off a virgin

End then ending up at the plastic surgeon…

So sorry to say but it must be said
The President’s leadership is morally dead.
You simply can’t pretend to have it both ways
Condemning hatred on some, but not all days.
On immigrants and guns and the mentally ill
There is a way – but he has no will.

From the Amazon to the Arctic every day

Children pursued creative forms of play,

For thousands of years, on their own,

It’s the way our societies all have grown.

And now in their “wisdom” what adults have done

Will make less capable people who have less fun.

It’s hard to see this and not to worry,

But what to do next is a little blurry.

Seems pretty clear it’s getting warmer,

But we don’t have a leader who’s a reformer.

Perhaps if we made Mar-a-Lago’s AC go out

We’d have a bit less climate warming doubt.

Now Moscow Mitch has said his piece,

“Stability” for now, but later they’ll fleece

All Americans of their standard of living

As the deficit will mean that each is giving

Even more than they give for national defense

To cover payments on our debt expense.

Banks are meant for money’s safekeeping

So you can rest at ease when you’re sleeping.

They pay you interest in order to use

Your money to make money, that’s the ruse.

But now, it seems, the tables have turned

And in this case the rich will be burned.

Poor Mitch McConnell is bent out of shape

And by all accounts is going ape.

His patriotism has been put in question

Because he refuses in this session

To address the matter of foreign meddling.

And well that is just very, very unsettling.

The dating app used by 3 million a day

Is getting ready to make a very big play.

It plans soon to list for an IPO

And will make its owners plenty of dough.

Investors are happy, there is no doubt.

But it’s still hard for users to come out.
