The elevator environment is quite complex

With its own cultural code in many respects.

There are things you do and things you do not

Passing wind, for example, is frowned on a lot.

New rules are coming, that much is for sure.

Just one more adjustment we’ll have to endure.

The beats have traveled for billions of years

Through untold galaxies and alien beers.

Wide-eyed scientists have received these feeds

And shaken their heads, since they know it needs

A much stronger bass line, and less percussion.

It’s really not even up for discussion.

Algorithms have always annoyed me.

So I avoid them, and they avoid me.

My issues date back to high school math

While trying to solve for calculite wrath.

I can’t fathom the horror of being abused

By an algorithm that has falsely accused.

The bedrock pillar of right-wing news

Took a poll showing interesting views.

The overwhelming majority of all folks

Aren’t too pleased with political jokes.

Get serious with important health tasks,

Don’t have rallies and wear those masks.

Drones have mostly been annoying to me

They buzz overhead while the pilot can see

Whatever you’re doing in your little castle

So mostly I’ve thought of them as a hassle.

But this I must say is insanely cool –

Delivering books that children need for school.

I just can’t say it makes much sense
No matter that things have become so tense
For any police unit to come out and say
That moving forward as of today
There is no longer an anti-crime team…
Is that not essential to the whole scheme?!

Quite the surprise coming from this Court

Stacked as it is with Donnie’s cohort.

I wonder what his base will think –

That the majority opinion really does stink?

Or will this make them feel everything’s okay?

…or assume that Gorsuch and Roberts are gay?

The folks at VW are again in a jam…

Remember their diesel emissions scam?

Now they’ve launched a racist ad.

Who’d expect the Germans to act so bad?!

Their excuse, I must say, really does blow:

“Yah, so sorry, you see vee just didn’t know…”

It seems sci-fi stories are coming to life

As we navigate through this global strife.

Today we struggle with Haves and Have Nots

That already generate too many gunshots.

Who knows what tension will soon be created

As the new high class is elevated.

On the day that Wall Street regained all losses,

And the world seemed fine to finance bosses,

A different reality played through the world

As COVID-19 continuously swirled

Through populations still reeling in pain,

And recorded its largest single day gain.
