Sailing Away
Your mind is failing, sailing away.
Late in life you can’t engage
Your mouth into first gear.
Your brain transmission
Is stuck in reverse,
With English your foreign language.
HAIR
His hair furbelowed on top of his head,
Pillowed high – a wafting sight.
The maelstrom of strands skyward bound.
Static sparked their frantic flight.
Laundry on double decker lines,
Swishing, flapping, slapping, crackling,
Such a sight to see.
“demigod”
A vote for Trump in November
One ballot you’ll remember.
The day you lost your virginity,
To this cheap gold-plated member. –
Upended by his rhetoric. –
None correctly historic. –
A sickening flow of hate and blame –
He spewed to hide his inner shame, –
Of a father’s unbridled, uncaring game –
Become a Plumber and Flush the Swamp
We are all stuck in an elevator with Mister Majestic. We all hear him farting. He and his enablers keep spraying air freshener and pointing at and blaming others, but it is clear that the White House occupier has been carrying a load in his pants for years. We can be dragged down in this elevator or can press on upward into the light filled upper floors.
