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…


They still don’t get it

Money raised and the last big poll

Are terrible indicators of the way we’ll roll

When people stand in that lonely booth

With only their own impression of truth.

A big blue wave in the next election?

That doesn’t acknowledge the extent of infection.


We’re sinking

I haven’t read the entire book

Just the intro, but it’s worth a look.

Tuck and I don’t agree on much.

But when he says our leaders are out of touch

He hits a bullseye right at the core.

Seems they’re out for themselves, nothing more.


…at hello

Forget the talk of nuclear destruction

Or Rocket Man or Dotard or economic obstruction.

That was when these two felt jilted

A dark time in their lives, their relationship wilted.

But oh what a difference a love letter makes!

They’re in LOVE, yes LOVE, a bond that won’t break!


Look over there!

Did Donnie T really just do that?

Get the FBI to see if it’s true that

Brett likes beer and lifting weights

But stayed a virgin until 28?

Or maybe he just wants all its resources

On someone else! That’s the reason, it of course is.


Oops

He’s not even close to being the worst abuser.

Outrageous statements are made by all type of loser.

Fact or fiction, it doesn’t matter.

If it’s posted on Twitter it will generate chatter.

Elon’s case won’t make it end,

But perhaps it can start to reverse the trend.


No good deed…

Hard to imagine what goes through

The minds of municipal bureaucrats who

Choose to charge for getting a hand

When their entire county became wasteland.

These are not hucksters committing fraud

But utility companies we should applaud.


What’s so funny?

No doubt this game was played “away.”

At Donnie’s home field laughter doesn’t pay.

You’d likely be thrown out by some beefy goon.

But that couldn’t happen a moment too soon.

Still, his laughable boast was worth the bucks.

He has done more, it just mostly sucks.


So ugly

There is no pretty way out of this feud.

I have sympathies for the judge and for #MeToo.

Victims stay quiet, that’s proven fact.

But with no corroboration, what’s the right act?

The accusers’ lives were horribly shaken

And so would the judge’s if they are mistaken.


Unintended consquences

However you see it, it’s not a good look

For the Deputy AG to treat the Prez like a crook.

Secret recordings and wearing a wire?

News like this will not bring us higher.

So one thing has come of Donnie’s hate:

Though never before, now we have a Deep State.


The Right Stuff

What could #1 teach to #45

On leadership and ethics and how to survive?

The list is so long it boggles the mind

The worst of it is that it takes the kind

Of man who embraces relentless effort, which he’s got

And emotional control, which he simply does not.
