We Have Had Enough Fires






A summer’s morn, dark skies, forlorn.
Burning, smoking, California cities, this August morn,

Our state with illegal, infected people overrun.
We think the virus is just plain fun?

Mad as a hatter, Governor Newsom calls now
for Afghan refugees?
And what.......to live in beauteous tent cities. where 
crime lurks.....what a pity!

Hope Californians recall this madman and foppish 
immoral jerk!
With greaseball hair and his insidious,eternal 
brainless, eternal  smirk!

I have an aunt in Sacramento, and I always worry about the fires there. Our country is in an awful bad place. I liked the last three words.

Tom, you are totally in the dark as to this problem. It’s quite enormous. No, the city of tents only grows larger. LA being the worst.CA is not what it was when you saw it. It is total junk, and why people are leaving. Move on? Are you serious.? They have it made. Free everything. Notaxes...Theft allowed also up to 900 dollars.Add Newsom letting prisoners go free! Crime is up. Hope he goes. Pangie
