News I Learned From Memes Interpreted As A Haiku Because Thursday

Trump’s on Epstein’s list.

Someone’s gun went boom too soon.

England’s a hellhole.

When The Kamala Voters Go On a “Sex Strike”

The Donald got elected

And that makes me so depressed

‘Cause now I can’t go out at night

Wearing my Sunday best

To hit on green-haired feminists

Who think that I am Satan.

Oh well, I have my freedom

And more time for masturbatin’.

Heroes On The Ground Delivering You Live Coverage

There once was a Hurricane Milton

And for donations the news went a guiltin’.

They had guys in the storm

With hair in good form

Filming live from the Atlanta Hilton.

Watching The News

I, for one, am grateful

That 24 hours a day

I can turn a TV on

And learn I’m not ok

‘Cause someone in another state

Is angry and insisted

That the government fix an issue

That I didn’t know existed.

I’m glad I can be angry

On demand, and also wary

Now that I know a deadly thing

Is affirmed as “very scary”.

I’m also glad these stations

Are translated totally free

To whatever political language

Is most offensive to me!

We’re lucky seven corporations

Tell us the woes of corporate greed

While insuring that we’re well-informed

About what brand-name crap we need.

Anyway, I’m done complaining!

Now excuse me as I go

To learn about the trans kids

Swimming here from Mexico.

Nauti Nauti…

The wealthy paid a submarine

To view the ocean bottom

Whereat the wreck of Titanic was seen

Until the ocean caught ‘em.

Now missing, they have headlines made

Of a voyage doomed to fail

Though I see not a tragedy

But wish more elites might sail.

When The Next Covid Hits

There’s a zombie in the basement

And a dozen in the alley

And the news says they are spreading

Through the mountain and the valley,

Just a moaning and a eating

Brains and animals galore.

From sea to shining sea’s awash

With tears and sweat and gore.

And here I am in slippers

Eating chili and having a snooze

Because I had the foresight

To then off the evening news.

One Upside To WW III

In a positive twist on current events,

It seems the number of incidents

Of accidental gunshots dropped

When everybody suddenly stopped

Tolerating anything Russian,

Which apparently included pushing

A swift end to games of Russian Roulette.

So hey! Take what good news you get!

Fauced Up Man…

There’s a guy in a political alliance

Who’s rightfully earned our defiance.

Instead of giving puppies hugs

He had them eaten alive by bugs

And yet you still say “Trust the science”?

It’s Not About Race; It’s About Culture

Deep in the woods by a little green lake

Lived a man who had never been sad.

His life was just joy from the start to today,

Never once punctuated by bad.

He called the birds and the frogs company

And sang to the wood he would stack…

But all of that changed when he saw CNN

And learned what it meant to be black:

He learned that despite being happy and free

His life was defined by oppression

And how being equal to everyone else

Was the only worthwhile obsession.

He was overwhelmed, shocked even, until

He heard an inspiring call:

He realized he hadn’t voted for Biden

And thus wasn’t black after all!
