Trump’s reelection
Shameful watershed moment–
Many tears were shed.

*****

Tesla truck explodes
in front of a Trump Hotel–
Metaphor writes self.

*****

MAGA v. Reason–
ever-widening schism
with no bridge in sight.

Trump’s New Year’s Resolutions (If He Could Write Limericks)

Tuesday, December 31st, 2024

“Tell me Sir, what’s your best resolution?”
Getting vengeance with each prosecution!
Also closing the borders,
Undoing Joe’s orders,
And trashing the damn Constitution!

Then there’s placing high tariffs galore
To give nations a giant what-for,
Getting rid of non-whites
And that dumb Bill of Rights,
Plus I’ll dump X-man Musk. What a bore!

Republican Gamesmanship (Limerick)

Friday, December 20th, 2024

The Republicans’ game is a mess.
Think they know what they’re doing? (God bless!)
At best, they are wreckers.
They’re NOT playing checkers.
And they’re certainly NOT playing chess!

Musk Throws His Weight Around (Limerick)

Thursday, December 19th, 2024

Upon Elon’s command, Johnson’s bill
Was withdrawn. Seems it gives Musk a thrill
To rob Trump of his job.
And so (yessiree Bob!)
Trump and Johnson must swallow this pill.

A Tragic Truth (Limerick)

Wednesday, December 11th, 2024

After learning that “enshittification” is a real word, I couldn’t resist using it in a limerick. (Yes, it means precisely what it sounds like.)

Trump is back, so truth’s value has dived,
And enshittification’s arrived!
Fabrications reap wins;
Seems no matter the sins,
Some can flourish (all grins) rank revived.

Trump’s Speedy Picks (Limerick)

Saturday, December 7th, 2024

Donald’s picks, on the whole, are all feckless.
There’s no vetting, alas. They are checkless.
Trump gives standards short shrift,
But his process is swift.
It’s a cinch being quick when you’re reckless!

My New York Times Rant (2-Verse Limerick)

Thursday, December 5th, 2024

The old “Gray Lady’s” falling in line,
Cov’ring Trump with no hint of a spine.
I’m so sick of its false
Equiv’lency waltz!
Is it fair to the Dems? I say Nein!

I would stop our subscription today.
But, alas, my dear spouse says, “No! Nay!”
He has wearied of hearing
My New York Times jeering.
So it’s here, where I must have my say.

The Trump Pick Blues (Limerick)

Wednesday, December 4th, 2024

When a Trump pick is forced to withdraw
Over sex-crimes, or some other flaw,
It seems likely, alas,
That an even worse ass
Will be named to help Trump flout the law.

Peril (Limerick)

Tuesday, December 3rd, 2024

Donald’s win in November is galling,
And his Cabinet picks are appalling.
The one qualification
To garner such station?
Trump allegiance. Democracy’s bawling!

Biden’s Hunter Pardon (Limerick)

Sunday, December 1st, 2024

Biden’s pardoning Hunter, I’ve read.
I hope Dems put their bitching to bed.
Please don’t huff and/or puff.
Hunter’s suffered enough!
Think how pissed Trump will be! Enough said!

Wake Me Up From This Nightmare! (Limerick)

Saturday, November 23rd, 2024

Four more years of a man who’s our bane?
A vile pol with a venomous brain?
What’s the crux of the matter?
Trump’s foul — a Mad Hatter,
Whose win on the 5th is insane!

Shock-Proofed (Quatrain)

Thursday, November 21st, 2024

Most of my political verse takes the form of limericks or haiku. But this one is a four-liner – a quatrain:

I’m not shocked by Trump’s Cabinet picks.
I’m not stunned by each deviant creature.
Because sexual crimes against chicks
For Trump ain’t a bug, but a feature.

Trump Election Blame Game (Limerick)

Tuesday, November 12th, 2024

The Dems and the press-folk are keen
On playing a blame game, obscene.
But they’re missing the point
In their haste to anoint
A fall guy: Most voters are mean!

My Post-Election Feed (Limerick)

Saturday, November 9th, 2024

On Facebook, wherever I look,
I see posts penned by folks who are shook.
They’re depressed, just like me.
Not one whisper of glee!
Well, at least I’ve blocked fans of the CROOK!

Election Grief (Limerick)

Thursday, November 7th, 2024

Both my heart and my mind can’t stop achin’;
Human decency’s vanquished, forsaken.
Trump’s so clearly depraved,
That I thought we’d be saved,
But the virtuous path was not taken.

Open Limerick To Trump Voters

Wednesday, November 6th, 2024

Dear Trump Voters: You surely must know
That he’s ruthless; it’s NOT just for show.
Yet despite, or because
Of his numerous flaws,
You’ve elected Democracy’s Foe.

Election Anxiety (Limerick)

Monday, November 4th, 2024

Election Day’s here and I’m tense.
My fear of a Trump win’s immense.
I keep telling myself:
“Stick your angst on some shelf;
Voters surely can NOT be THAT dense!”

What Happens In The Booth, Stays In The Booth (Limerick)

Thursday, October 31st, 2024

This limerick was inspired by Kamala Harris’s latest ad, voiced by Julia Roberts.

Dear Gals: Secret votes are your right!
So PLEASE don’t vote “Trump” out of fright.
“Yes” your spouse, if you must,
But support who you trust…
And give voice to your choice in this fight.

Trump’s Message (Limerick)

Tuesday, October 29th, 2024

“Stay on message,” Trump’s people advise.
But its essence is hatred and lies.
It’s divisive and crude,
Racist, fascist, and lewd–
A clear message sane folks should despise.

Non-Endorsement Turmoil (Limerick)

Sunday, October 27th, 2024

The great Post has been sullied by fear.
Give that cowardly Bezos a jeer!
WaPo planned to endorse
VP Harris, of course.
But Jeff quashed it and kissed Donald’s rear.
