not so White House...Limerick

The White House is in the pottage

Trump's ego they soothe with l'hommage…

So is it any wonder...
the U.S falls asunder

As he panders his base with frottage...

In This Place

Fire and stone
Hidden
Obsidian and Scoria
Under our toes
Design euphoria

Agony so deep
Pumps novacaine tremors....
Spreading sweet heat
To covet mass terror

Together
We devolve
Using ungodly measures
Still wearing white Chimer
Empty, inflated wearers.

Trump complains

Trump complains, as always, that…
He is the victim of…
...Character Assassination…

How can that be...
  ...when He...
...has no character to assassinate..?

Smoke and Mirrors

pick up that nice dress
put on a little war paint
cover up
what's hurting you

no one likes a grim face
at a party

political B.S...in U.K and U.S

Sometimes it seems
all too much...to deal with

between the news
here…and the news there…

"reality seems so unreal"...

I got news for you...surreal too
but that's even more frightening, I fear.

Tanka #37...what we're given

Whatever's in charge…
made me this way
no doubt for good reason

Who am I to disagree …we...
work with what we're given.

Senryu #36  Present Day Politics

Present Day Politics equates
to the brainless...
being led by the morally deranged.

British politics

A lady MP called Theresa
Had scores of supporters to praise her,
So they made her PM,
But only pro-tem
And after three years they erased her.

Tanka #30  ...gratis...

everybody wants something for nothing
everybody wants it all for free

have you considered that the
a-qui-si-tion might be... sweeter
with the price of our sweat...honestly?
