Ho-Hum, Here Are the Keys

Ho-hum, another war lost
  We should have won
Our new partner for peace ~ the Taliban

Ho-hum, a new school year
  First semester's curriculum
    Learn whom to FEAR

Ho-hum, we're going all-electric
  While 'Mr. Green President'
Begs Russia ~ Pump more oil! Protet us!

Ho-hum, California burns
  The no-win solution
Gavin Newsome returns

Ho-hum, Chicago's locked down
  No, it's not Covid
It's a murderous town

Ho-hum, soaring inflation
  I can still sleep ~ My paycheck's 
Indexed to tax machinations

Ho-hum, another day closer
  To beckoning the invading hoardes
Come over ~ Here are the keys ~ Take over

Rico Leffanta Date: 8/13/2021 11:48:00 AM Chicago has certainly become America's Shooting Gallery, so look forward to more contributions from the NRA. Bezos does not need your keys as he knows there is ample wiggle-room under your door! Meanwhile, New Zealand has opened its doors to tourism after reducing COVID-19 and Delta Variant infections to ZERO whereas 1/3rd of Americans believe Climate Change is fake news.

Lindsay Laurie Date: 8/12/2021 10:33:00 PM Hello Gershon ... This is a really good verse if we read into very closely. What does it mean? Does it mean WW3 is on the horizon to destroy the insanity when it's over - that's my fear Gershon - Lindsay Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 8/14/2021 7:58:00 PM Be prepared! But never fear! :) gw
