It’s Not Your Fault!

Not many people will have to explain

They lost billions of dollars, down the drain.

But if you find yourself in that tight spot

Well, Carl Icahn sure can teach you a lot…

What a deflection of taking the blame!

He’d have been fine had he played his own game.

The GOP’s Long Con

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again…
Though I did not like the guy much then
What I would give for Mike Pence to be
The Republicans’ winning nominee!
Trump’s big success and his victory?
Making guys like Pence seem great to me!

Well Of COURSE We’re Crazy

If you believe that you are what you eat

Then this is not news, but it’s surely beat.

Humans have processed eons of change

Evolution has worked, it’s not that strange.

But it takes generations to catch up

Chemicals in food? An unfair match up.

Finally

VR has at long last found its best place

And could help America deal with race.

Imagine you’re pulled over on a road

It’s night, remote, in a foreign zip code…

Headlights approach but you don’t know who’s there

A friend? A foe? What’s your race? Will they care?

Is This A Thing?

Lord help us now it has come down to this…
They’ll say it’s a slash, not a piss!
Fake British accents of course have their place
Like making fun of the Brits to their face.
Otherwise I fear it’s a sign of downfall
Pretension and posing, that’s about all.

Simplify and Enforce

Immigration matters are very tough
And the human toll can be pretty rough.
We must make sure all laws are enforced
And simplified rules should be endorsed.
Be strict, be tough, and don’t base it on hate
These folks want in cuz America’s great.

Such Bullsh!t…

Our nation’s debts are a massive problem
But truly no one has tried to solve ‘em.
Trump is among the worst of offenders
And other Republicans are contenders.
Both sides need to quit the dumb accusations
Or using the debt limit for negotiations.

Can He Play God Too?

George Santos has done what very few could

Making the world believe he’s pretty good.

And man did he ever make it all last

Consistently reinventing his past.

Has he finally come to the end of the line?

To get out of this he must play divine…

Fair Weather

Gone are the days of Cronkite and Brokaw

Who delivered news that everyone saw.

Opinions could differ, that was alright

Because we heard the same facts every night.

Now smart debates are light as a feather

Since our only shared fact is the weather!

Boranation

I’m not so big on the coronation…

Monarchies seem like a bad creation.

Now Meghan Markle has had a tough time…

Sucking up to the crown was not her crime.

But I do love a conspiracy theory!

Anything to make this event less dreary.
