Normal takes on a brand new perspective

When you think about just how defective

Were these senior advisors to the Pres

Who had spent years hearing the things he says

Yet still believed in some strange dimension

Trump would accept defeat without tension.

It’s not the news you might really expect

To come from a boss who wants to connect

All employees together in a trance

And perhaps get them doing a “profits dance…”

But whoa there it is, the modern approach…

Way better than hiring a management coach!

Sometimes taxes are used to change behavior
But rarely do they become any savior
Especially when there is simply no way
For any change to happen on any day.
The cattle and sheep are not going to stop,
So this tax really seems a bit over the top.

Sedition is a most serious crime
And in the past was punished not with time
But with the hangman who’d want to make sure
That the punishment was part of the cure
To prevent all others from thinking “Sweet!
I’ll start an insurrection with a Tweet.”

Amid the sea of news that’s depressing
Comes this true gem we can’t be suppressing.
A treatment for cancer with great effect
One hundred percent! Yes that is correct.
Let’s get research going and kill this beast,

With increased testing at the very least.

This one is funny if you know the drill…

Since the folks at Goldman go for the kill.

Unlimited vacation sure sounds nice!

So long as you’re willing to pay the price.

It’s also a fact that bankers these days

Can never escape their work-life malaise.

I have to admit to loving the thought

That a real hot mess could maybe get caught

Seeing the bright side of his or her scene

And thinking that maybe life has some sheen.

But positive thinking is not the part

That most of these folks seem to take to heart.

There’s a long road ahead before it’s done

But these steps must be taken one by one.

In addition to ratcheting down the hype

They have to avoid the partisan swipe.

Reports with integrity will get the views

And help people trust where they get their news.

When it comes to getting into the sun

I had thought that the glory days were done.

Skin cancer and damage were on the mind

And don’t forget it can make you go blind.

But hearing this news sounds pretty darn good!

So go out in the sun? Why yes, you should!

Maybe ‘cuz I grew up in the city

I’d rather write something a bit witty

About wild animals in the range

Than go up to them and try to exchange

Pleasantries and some nice greetings fulfilled

Since it seems doing so can get you killed.
