Finally we see the bitter chill thaw

And caring unity replace partisan flaw!

Nice Nancy is ever so concerned for the Prez

Who’s health may be more fragile than he says.

And Donnie for his part being a lamb

Showing it’s safe, not some sort of scam.

Georgia on my Mind

You’d think this would get a bit more press

Not that it will help relieve much stress.

Hopeful History

Turns out humans may not be so bad

And the Lord of the Flies is the wrong ad.

When seven boys were really marooned

The captain who found them happily crooned

That they’d built gardens and chicken pens

And lived on their own as the best of friends.

Not a failed senator just being a jerk.

He and economists must both give their view

So that leaders can then decide what to do.

Scheisse…

The Germans are known for their precision

And recently made an important decision.

They began to “open” – albeit measured –

Since getting it right is always treasured.

But looks like they may have done it too soon…

The numbers are rising like a zombie goon.

The world can seem awfully complicated

With so many solutions feeling outdated.

Popping heads like you pop a pimple…

What’s this? A killer bee in my space?

No problem at all, I’ll eat out its face.

Bored of Education

America has become anti-intellectual

Experts are perceived as ineffectual.

Education is hard, and can be quite dull!

And takes up too much room in the skull.

But look at the numbers of unemployed…

Without education you get destroyed.
