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…

Such Bullsh!t…

Our nation’s debts are a massive problem
But truly no one has tried to solve ‘em.
Trump is among the worst of offenders
And other Republicans are contenders.
Both sides need to quit the dumb accusations
Or using the debt limit for negotiations.

Can He Play God Too?

George Santos has done what very few could

Making the world believe he’s pretty good.

And man did he ever make it all last

Consistently reinventing his past.

Has he finally come to the end of the line?

To get out of this he must play divine…

Fair Weather

Gone are the days of Cronkite and Brokaw

Who delivered news that everyone saw.

Opinions could differ, that was alright

Because we heard the same facts every night.

Now smart debates are light as a feather

Since our only shared fact is the weather!

Take Heed

A common refrain from some of Trump’s fans…

They don’t like the man, but they do like his plans.

The only problem, says one who would know,

Is that it’s more likely for Hell to see snow

Than for Trump to succeed in any of that

The guy’s an incapable spoiled brat.

Boranation

I’m not so big on the coronation…

Monarchies seem like a bad creation.

Now Meghan Markle has had a tough time…

Sucking up to the crown was not her crime.

But I do love a conspiracy theory!

Anything to make this event less dreary.

Backtrack

Is it overreaction? What’s the deal?

Students without backpacks?! This isn’t real…

Dangers lurk everywhere, that’s just a fact

In what other ways might this have impact?

Crazy solutions should be given a pass,

This won’t stop weapons from being in class.

Traitorous Boys

Seditious conspiracy is a grave crime

And these proud boys deserve to do time.

A jury of peers convicted this crew

But MAGA will squawk, cuz that’s what they do.

“The election was stolen, this isn’t fair!”

They’re lucky they don’t get the electric chair.

It’s the Issues!

If for a passing moment you had hopes

That American voters were not dopes

And were serious about the matters

That threaten to tear the world to tatters

Well sadly it seems those hopes must be dashed…

Even the pretense to care has been trashed!

How DO White Men Fight…?!

There’s much more to Tuck’s text than meets the eye.

Maybe the Times is not fair to this guy…

But, there’s pretty horrible stuff in there,

And it’s clear why Fox didn’t want it to air.

Another curious thing that comes to light?

How about his view on how white men fight!

Um, is that smart?

So writers decided to go on strike

And would like to receive a small pay hike.

Well that makes sense, so no arguments there

But they also have this other big scare…

AI must be banned! It makes them all pout…

But it’s doing the writing while they’re all out!
