Righteousness In Distress

Righteousness In Distress


         Many indisputably dreaded lunacy ensued yet hoped there is no hell
         On a dim corner, the deposed 2017 president wiggle in his dank cell
         Fake hero inside a fat ego in Moscow, waggle bloody fists of outrage
         Nothing tragic happens if neurons are at bay and not on a rampage!


         Societal issues is like week old bread without slivers of magic butter
         Words embellished with hot air eventually sink masses in iced water
         Sword of justice seizes a mad czar and a true charlatan alleged holy
         If evil doers cramp your insides, chomp anti-acid, dump your worry!

                      Aboard cruise liner:
                      Rhapsody of the Seas
                      Haifa, Israel

Hi Milt! Thanks a lot for enjoying the poem. I'm entertaining on a cruise ship, Rhapsody of the Seas, (Royal Caribbean International). We started in the Mediterranean and now doing cruises based in Haifa, Israel. I hope you're doing great, missed your writings very much, just haven't been checking events on Soup for a while. I'll be back my friend. Take care always...Anselmo
