Abort

I support the right of women to choose

But this type of campaign can only lose.

It is not an issue that’s black or white

And neither side can claim to be right.

There’s no mention of it in the Gospel

And assumptions like this are just hostile.

Oh boy…

Is it time to ask here we go again?

With a virus jumping from animals to men?

In China, no less, where one has now died

But of course, who knows? They may have lied…

One thing is certain, this news is not sweet!

The world does not need a viral repeat.

You mean… just quit?!

Yeah, that seems like really awesome advice…

If you can’t take the heat, then don’t think twice

Just bail on it all, that’s what quitters do

And wallow in pity, feeling all blue…

The quitter class has now been anointed

Pessimists are never disappointed.

Too Many Olympiads

They used to be held once every four years

And had the attention of all eyes and ears.

Weathering Heights

Say what you will about Europeans

On climate issues they’re not plebeians.

Their leadership here is quite amazing

With bold new plans that are all trail blazing.

No kicking the can further down the road

They’re notching it up into Ludicrous Mode.

Words fall short

It’s an achievement that’s hard to believe

Human ingenuity, pulled from the sleeve.

What an awesome gift to be able to give

Expression of thought, much more life to live.

These fine doctors have changed the game

The future for humans is not the same.

Swimmingly

While pools have created a different deal

It’s still a story with dramatic appeal…

One of two nations “double landlocked”

All of its neighbors are also blocked

From having access to any sea coast

But it’s got some swimmers, at least almost…

At least there’s that

Let’s say for a moment that this is true
And it changed relationships that were blue
And they blossomed into heavenly bliss
With love and attention sealed by a kiss.
Well then perhaps we’d be able to think
At least something from covid didn’t stink.

Grand Central Station

It couldn’t come a moment too soon

Because we’re headed to culture’s high noon.

The political center has all but collapsed

And it must be fixed before more time has elapsed.

All the emphasis on everything woke

Will make Democrats’ edge go up in smoke.
