James Edward Lee Sr. Poet Dramatic Verse

Reality Not All That Sunny

Nothing funnier than a bear mouth clown
Telling a joke that not now or ever funny
Drinking frozen lemonade served by the Eveready bunny
Start a joke, it ain't funny
Reality Not All That Sunny
fell down to the ground, head spinning round
Crackle Jack barrel crashed into a police car
Kindergarten children spilling chocolate milk
Onto grandma's favorite quilt 
Start a joke, it ain't funny
Reality Not All That Sunny
Here she comes running holdin my money
Slipped in fell hit her head money went everywhere
IRS came to pick her up, threw her back down she owed back-taxes
                      political status
Reality Not All That Sunny
Neither Democratic, Republican, or Independent
The highest majority of you got more money than the average
Don't pay fer gas in car got paid fer office supplies
Reality Not All That Sunny
I'm stuck in revolt this ain't no joke
Think I swallowed wrong now I'm choke
Reality Not All That Sunny
Health care who cares a President said it's not new taxes
This ain't funny nor a joke
Vote for grandma least she'll give you home made soup
Reality Not All That Sunny
