Can You Imagine?

There are few things worse than losing your home.

A lifetime destroyed, and you have to roam.

It happens in war zones and disasters

And makes people lean more on their pastors.

But you wouldn’t expect, on vacation,

Your house gets destroyed to the foundation.

Go To Hell

Few people in the world make me more mad

Than this sorry sap who’s much more than bad.

It’s one thing to profit from self-aggrandizement

Promoting yourself like an advertisement

That’s bad enough and can cause upheaval

But what Alex Jones does is pure evil.

“Anonymously Signed a Letter…”

Please pardon me for asking, but, um, WHAT?

This sounds like it came from someone’s butt.

Being so distraught by our human crimes

They scribed “anonymous” 400 times!

“Anonymously signed” makes as much sense

As a massive imaginary fence.

Literally Awesome

Despite best efforts of marketing teams

VR hasn’t exploded, so it seems.

But it sure is terrific that they’ve found

Medical use for it that’s really sound.

Helping patients with cancer as they deal

Is one use of VR with great appeal.

I Feel For Them

Smell is for sure the most powerful sense

And its impact can be really intense.

But I never thought that I might feel bad

For a computer once I learned it had

The sense of smell. Pungent like sledgehammers…

Ever been in a room with programmers?

Everything Everywhere Now

All Hell is breaking loose in the Middle East

And the Ukraine invasion hasn’t ceased.

With the world distracted in a huge way

I fear the Chinese may think that today

Would be a pretty good time for some brawn

And next thing you know they invade Taiwan.

Sure, Just One Small Problem

Hey, these are all real issues, I agree.

But Gaitz’s approach is absurdity.

If he feels so strongly about our debt

He sure didn’t think that it was a threat

When Trump spent like a sailor on shore leave…

So his concern now is hard to believe.

Tragedy

I don’t know how a depraved soul condones

Beheading of children and murder drones.

But it seems the far left and the far right

Have a demented view about this fight.

Such a troubled land, living with a curse

And I have to believe things will get worse.

Drop and Give Me an A!

The results are stunning and really cool

Improving results across the whole pool

Regardless of race, their color or class

The kids in these schools are kicking some ass.

We’d do well to study what makes it true

And it’s not just money, tho that helps too.

Uncertainty is a Thing

So much is unknown, that will always remain.
For those with OCD, that is a pain.
But trying to prove things beyond a doubt
Is just hard to do, so what it’s about
Is accepting we’re still learning a lot
And conclusions may change, or they may not.
