Humdingers and Soap Opera Singers

Here we are already in April
        it’s time for new predictions
      A word of warning first
        I used to write science fiction

      My first one’s a lulu
        a real humdinger 
      I predict that Hilary Clinton
        will become a soap opera singer

     The second one’s more risky
        it may land in the sand
     But I envision Colin Kaepernick as a hirsute
        majorette with a baton in his hand

     Now for my final prediction
        Please hang on to your hat
     AOC's running for the Oval Office
        ~ dressed as a calico cat … 

     'Course, none of these fantasies will ever come true
       You've read my science fiction; I’ll never fool you

Soap opera singer - hilaryous! Those poor AOC backers will have to wait 6 whole years for her to be old enough to serve as president.
