Friday News

Woke up, the brain computer told me
about the cost of vegetables in Holland
I904, when a kilo of carrots was priced at
0'02 Guilders 
Got up, switched on the computer
The news was miserable, a rusty tank ship
full of oil floating about near Iceland 
Trump had pulled out of the organization that
It was helpful to protect the environment
The oil people had won nature again, can
look after itself
Two of Trump's mouthpieces told how 
They were going to steal Venezuelan's 
oil, they did so without blushing
My old friend Elon Musk has taken 
A kind interest in politics, I wish he would
stick to Mars, I see him on X, talking to
worthy persons about his plans,
hoping the constitution could be changed
So he could become president
Finally, the ICE soldiers continue the 
war against the Americans
So, what was the price of carrots again
