Heaven Forbid!

I’m sensing some commonplace themes

That is fear of fascist regimes

Where government’s shrinking

And people start thinking

And grocery receipts don’t cause screams

For Reference, The Question Was “Why Do You Need To Visit Congress”

There once was a venomous fly

That, with one touch, could make a man die.

It’s untraceable and yellow.

I’ll release it, dear fellow,

And that is my whole answer why.

Murica

‘Twas the Fifth of July

And all through the room

People were sleepy

From lots of boom boom.

But we can take solace

As tinnitus lingers:

The worst of our neighbors

Now have but nine fingers.

Still Better Than Status Quo

What if, instead of an election,

We had a Mr. Beast style event

Where we rented a hall full of obstacles

And made every potential president

Stay in the room with the challenge

To be the first one to tell us the truth.

I think that’s an alternate system

That would better engage with the youth.

Debate Limerick, 2024

There once was a were roses were blue

Or they were red, but they can be that too

And they went oh gone by the thing

And the… he’s a bad flower and I’m king

And we beat medicare and covid is a jew.

Am I Sexy And Dangerous Now?

Roses are red.

Vegans are pale.

When they read my blog in 10 years

They’ll probably put me in jail.

What Do You Mean We Have Weird Books In Our School Libraries?

Meet Vlad.

Vlad is sad.

Vlad thinks climate change is bad.

Vlad cannot cite sources? Woah!

But xe’s doing xir best though.

Vlad knows that to stop the pain

Of having marginally less rain

Because of heat that cow fart brings

Means having to do some painful things.

Vlad helps Earth by blocking cars

And hanging flyers up at bars.

Xe spray paints slogans over art

And lives out of a shopping cart.

Xe knows capitalism is bad.

And so is having a present dad.

Be like Vlad and we’ll show you lenience:

The climate depends on your inconvenience.

Juneteenth

Today’s the day we celebrate

When the government was two years late

To tell the slaves that they were free

And now owe tax on property.

If Only The Sea Level Could Rise Above Washington DC

In four more days the day will be

The longest of the year.

Today it’s fifty-eight outside

And I’m grinning ear to ear

‘Cause this means all our efforts

In the global warming fight

Have paid off, and we can repeal

The carbon tax now, right?

Dear IRS…

If I had a yeasty codpiece

That was trolled through mud and sludge

And then ground into a powder

And baked into a toxic fudge

That was fed to pigs with cholera

Who shat it into a vial

I’d rather take a shot of it

Than pay you to e-file.
