Sorta Like Sudetenland

He doesn’t really like to read history

But if Trump did he’d see it’s no mystery

That leaders who are obsessed with expanding

Will only become far more demanding

When given concessions. It’s not a win…

Look what happened with Neville Chamberlain.

Musk v Little Marco

If only I were a fly on the wall

To witness what must have been a great brawl.

The diplomat from the Department of State

With the tech tycoon, it must have been great.

And Trump? He sat there and watched it unfold…

“Now that’s entertainment,” he thought. “It’s gold!”

Buy the Dip!

Wine sales have dropped as people stopped drinking

But after last night, it got me thinking…

When the President of the USA

Is a spoiled brat whose gotten his way

The world starts fearing a pretty dark fate

And wine can help us self-medicate!

Careful What You Wish For

It was all fun and games for a while…

Luring RFK was pure Trump style.

Never mind what the crazy guy thinks

He’s a turncoat who believes that the Left stinks.

And he’ll be in charge of a useless shop!

Whoa wait… What’s this he’s doing to soda pop?!

Nostrovia

Champagne, vodka and salty caviar

Haven’t flowed this much since there was a czar!

What to make of it, the world is asking…

Are Putin and Trump really steering a course

To partner together, a unified force?!

Unexpected Consequences

There will always be some bad outliers

When you’re tearing stuff down and setting fires.

So don’t read too much into one case.

But it’s also important to see the face

Of people affected, whose lives are now glum

Even if there’s greater good to come.

Well…!

With the promise of spring not far away

Let’s think of new ways to start our day.

Needless to say I think this one is great!

Unless you like scrolling online hate.

So put down your phone, get out of that maze

And let some poetry ease your malaise…

Guess We’ll Never Know

I have to say the logic seems sound

Russia may back down if we’re around

Drilling and mining and making a mess

Putin might decide to acquiesce.

But the dream of minerals and their riches

Might now become a World War, bitches!

Old but Useful

Born when Columbus set out to sea

This clam is a link to history.

But bad things happen as you get older

Awareness faulters, ailments get bolder.

Yet Hafrun can still make us aware

Of global change and all its fanfare.

Really Appealing!

Many will debate the value of school.

Has it just become an obsolete tool?

Having degrees is now labeled elite

And sometimes makes it harder to compete.

And it costs a fortune, you write huge checks!

But at least you’ll also have much less sex…
