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…

Lost Genius

When it comes to Pop Tarts I’m a big fan
So this dude who just passed, well he was the man.
Toasted or cold, with butter or dry
Pop Tarts always delivered a breakfast high.
I hope his soul rests in peaceful protection
With ample supply of his sweet confection.

For Love

Seems like a good day to profess my love

For my wife and country and God above.

Things seem pretty good with my wife and God,

But our country might become a big shit wad.

I can’t believe the right would nominate Trump…

While the left makes good on a suicide jump.

On the Border

The GOP’s guy from Oklahoma,

A solid dude with a reverend’s diploma,

Is trying to solve problems in good faith

And is being attacked by a far-right wraith.

“Don’t solve this problem, whatever you do!

It’s bad politics, and we will destroy you…”

There’s a Pulse!

I was rooting for the Forty Niners

But the Chiefs played well and they’re not whiners.

Now conspiracy theorists are in high gear

(And they’re gonna have a helluva year…).

Team Biden pounced with something quite funny!

Though it’s likely too late for it to be money.

Divergent Paths

I saw this ad when it broadcast real-time

And I knew at the moment, it was prime.

It’s never been broadcast again anywhere

It occupies space of rarified air.

Apple became then a global success

And the Super Bowl? Well, it’s usually a mess…

Seal of Approval

Like many males, these seals think of two things

In order to live a life like the kings.

Eating is fundamental for certain

And then there’s the sex to get their dirt in.

Every move they make is in that pursuit

Which makes this seal’s act a lovely tribute.

Those Aren’t Allowed!

What was she thinking, this little vixen!

These were outrageous plans she was mixin’

With no care at all for propriety

And an awfully far cry from piety.

Yes, her intentions were really insane…

They’re no batteries allowed on a plane!

Yeah, But…

Well this may be a hard one to unpack

Since the value they cite may cause blowback.

It’s not that diversity helped the team

Rather, it’s the complicated coaching scheme…

When a minority coach is hired away

The team gets more points to use on Draft Day.

They Don’t

Border strength is a GOP staple

Devoted to it as if it were papal!

Unless, of course, it’s an election year

And then politics shifts into high gear.

They get what they want, it’s a perfect bill!

But then they can’t complain about Dems on the Hill…

We Don’t Do Kings

Imagine if this went the other way

And we entered a world where it was okay

For a President to do anything…

Above the law, a despot and king.

The court had no choice, it’s not how this works,

Immunity is not one of the perks.
