I mean, a piece of that could make some sense

Even though it can really make you tense.

The way it would work is if you believe

That Jim Jordan’s smart enough to conceive

That THAT is the plan and he’s been well groomed!

So okay fine, yes I guess we’re all doomed…

Despite best efforts of marketing teams

VR hasn’t exploded, so it seems.

But it sure is terrific that they’ve found

Medical use for it that’s really sound.

Helping patients with cancer as they deal

Is one use of VR with great appeal.

Smell is for sure the most powerful sense

And its impact can be really intense.

But I never thought that I might feel bad

For a computer once I learned it had

The sense of smell. Pungent like sledgehammers…

Ever been in a room with programmers?

All Hell is breaking loose in the Middle East

And the Ukraine invasion hasn’t ceased.

With the world distracted in a huge way

I fear the Chinese may think that today

Would be a pretty good time for some brawn

And next thing you know they invade Taiwan.

Hey, these are all real issues, I agree.

But Gaitz’s approach is absurdity.

If he feels so strongly about our debt

He sure didn’t think that it was a threat

When Trump spent like a sailor on shore leave…

So his concern now is hard to believe.

So the GOP is an utter mess.

And what happens now is anyone’s guess.

But they took their lead from Donald J. Trump,

Normalizing lunacy… it’s a dump.

They flouted the law and mocked consensus

And have totally lost all their senses.

I don’t know how a depraved soul condones

Beheading of children and murder drones.

But it seems the far left and the far right

Have a demented view about this fight.

Such a troubled land, living with a curse

And I have to believe things will get worse.

So the GOP has a new leader!

Or is he another bottom feeder?

Not so much showing everyone the way

But lurking in the depths, he’ll have no say.

Any GOP Speaker of the House

Will be hostage to the roar of the mouse.

The results are stunning and really cool

Improving results across the whole pool

Regardless of race, their color or class

The kids in these schools are kicking some ass.

We’d do well to study what makes it true

And it’s not just money, tho that helps too.

I don’t think “cakewalk” is really the term

But watching Republicans makes me squirm.

Their crazy circus will surely be felt

As Congress is put in a chastity belt.

As if there’s nothing that could use our aid

Going on in the world to make us afraid…
