Notes About The Poem

Some speculate the monster needs land for more golf courses. However, might the real reason behind the comments about annexing foreign territory made at his news conference today relate to his physical and emotional health?

Igor needs a bigger lab I

What explains Trumpenstein’s command
That the U.S. borders expand?
His withered small shaft
Needs a bigger graft  
Of mastodon parts from Greenland

Hi John, does he have a golf course there? That seems to be his favorite activity....as he leaves the real work to others. He just seems to want more and more adulation.

Some have explained to me that with China surrounding us in many places near our own shores, the idea of wanting Greenland has to do with national security. If Greenland wanted it, I think it's a good idea. I just don't get the thing about Canada. Personally I think Trump enjoys annoying people or wanting to entertain the world with his shenanigans maybe? My real concern is that he protect our borders and get our economy back on track. His first time in office as I recall, was not dangerous.

Thanks Andrea, unfortunately he's gone off the rails and we're all in the same railroad car. You're very kind and optimistic really, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Power and greed seems to be the new thing, taking it by force has been mentioned, isn't that a page out of Putins book? God help us. Tom

Tom, I was thinking the exact same thing. It's all so very strange. This monster and Putin have much in common. I'm always amazed how many people are OK with this and how easily some people are influenced by his shenanigans. Hope you are well, of course!!

Dear Duke, your Limerick poem is just amazing! This satirical poem aims at Donald Trump by implying that his statements regarding Greenland and other attempts to increase U.S. territory may be a result of his health problems and fears. Using Trump as an example, the story delves into ideas of ego, power, and the folly of political aspirations. The tone is lighthearted and sarcastic. The use of words such as "monster," "graft," and "mastodon" creates an air of silly, hyperbolic commentary.

Hi there SP! As you note, there be a lot of strange happening here, which are certainly fuel for humor. I was speaking to a psychiatrist friend, and she was agreeing with me that D.T. makes us think of Frankenstein's monster. The similarity in body language actually astounds!

Anne-Lise, I'm with you. The whole idea of taking what belongs to someone else reflects the ignorance of this monster maniac. I'm hoping people will see this psycho for what he really is. It seems obvious to some of us.

Thanks Jennifer, the things happening here are so out of whack! It makes it easier to come up with poems that make fun of things. As long as we can smile about it, we might be able to change some of it carefully and peacefully. We can only hope for the best and try to work for something we can all live with! Smiles!!

I do believe Scotland is next on his list, where he already has his golf course lol.

Hi John, we're hoping he will be occupied and can leave most of the world alone. Hard to know what's coming really. He seems to love chaos since it makes him seem more powerful and generates fear. It's obvious when people know what to look for!!

Hi Arthur, for now we can only make fun of this psycho. Once he assumes office, I'm hoping there might be some peaceful demonstrations we can participate in. It's really pretty sad to think about all the damage he's capable of.
