Is this a good thing?

It appears that now it’s easy to split,

To shrug and to say it wasn’t a fit.

I wonder if that is progress or not.

How many would give it another shot?

When the cost of divorce is very high

Maybe fewer would choose to say buh-bye…

No Djoke!

Well isn’t this a coinky dinky?
But I still don’t believe that it’s stinky…
If anything it’s kind of cool to see,
An investor taking it so seriously.
He’s putting his money where his mouth is.
I bet he’ll have more to say about this.

Supreme Justice

Doesn’t it suck when you have stacked the court

And then all your justices sell you short?

Leaving you there all alone with the law…

What’s that on the floor… an orange dropped jaw?

SCOTUS appointees are often maligned,

But most of the time their justice is blind.

About that dream

I wonder how he would feel today.

Progress? Yes. But things still aren’t okay.

There’s a massive gap in education…

Black students perform below the nation,

While one third are under the poverty line.

The system still begs for a redesign.

After a long day…

Does it really come as any surprise

They’re the hardest drinkers under the skies?

Rodents by nature, they’re in the Rat Race

They’re always wearing the toughest Game Face.

They just can’t jump off that treadmill they use…

It’s no wonder at all they can handle their booze!

Conservative? Umm…

A pillar of conservative thinking

Is that the government should be shrinking.

With business it should stay out of the way

And let the markets behave as they may.

Yet here comes Ron with gross interference!

This restricts business… and lacks coherence.

Let’s be serious. It matters.

Enough with the talk about civil war…

And referencing Hitler and Nazi lore…

And that the Left wants communist pillars…

And that the Right are all racist killers…

Unity is not what politics is about,

But democracy needs grace and reason to sprout.

Why aren’t there more?

Yes the truth hurts but it can set you free.
It all depends on who you want to be.
If you’re insecure and out for yourself
You put national interests on the shelf
And promote more nonsense backing your greed.
Real leaders address what the people need.

It takes a pandemic…?

Of course it’s a privilege to have a choice

And few folks are able to heed the voice

That wants them to quit because of their boss

Who always sees lines and decides to cross…

So what a shame it takes a global plague

To stand up to abuse without being vague.

Oui oui, c’est vrai!

While Novak is held in quarantine

A new French player has come on the scene!

He is little known but is fully vaxxed

And Mon Dieu does he ever seem relaxed!

I like his chances at winning it all

The brash newcomer from the land of Gaul…
