Merde

While many beetles are beautiful
And exist for natural reasons
So many people are immutable
In resisting refuting treason
This fact is not disputable
Well beyond election season
To find these behaviors excusable
Is how each denier sees Don

The Speaker of the House thinks a naked bike ride is terrorism.

This is a sentence I never thought I’d write when I got a degree in professional writing for journalism.

JD Vance can dismiss the Young Republicans as a college group chat.

But let's be clear: the group chat includes a State Senator, a Trump Admin official, and multiple Republican staffers — and some of the worst comments came from folks associated with Mike Johnson, Elise Stefanik, and Mike Lawler.

Here, the President of the United States says publicly that people on the left in America have “the devil’s ideology.” The devil’s ideology.

I don’t want to hear anyone on the right whine & complain anymore about “divisive/dangerous” language coming from the left. Not when you worship this guy. Ok?

Isn’t It Ironic?

The overtone:
Clearly leave us alone.
The undertone:
This was never your home.

But isn’t it ironic
How totally moronic
They are when claiming land
Stolen by their ancestor’s hand?

Another departure from my usual style 😎

Playgiarism

I can’t be a poet, I don’t have a poet’s flair,
Don’t drown in existential dread, don’t have the flowing hair.
But somewhere in the undertones, there is a spark of life,
I write with a pen I stole from a poet’s wife.
