Wednesday's Vent

WEDNESDAY'S VENT How soon we forget, Syria, Yemen, and Afghanistan Over 25 million Chinese in their new lock down plan All eyes on Ukraine until that too becomes forgotten And to many children of the world born misbegotten Where are our morals, now are taught there is none Why are we all turning a blind eye; to what is wrong We see progress; yet the dire bell of doom still rings Even the white dove of peace now has clipped wings Whilst innocents run around; like everything is Okay God; rue the day they lose it, then it's all hell to pay Feel like my life has been wasted; I merely survived Few years on; will my grandbairns even still be alive Even my sod it as you only live once attitude is gone I no longer have entitlement; I am up a creek wrong I've a bad mouth, but I do not want to live a bad life And putting up with the worlds crap, cuts like a knife I listen to presidents, then as watch as my jaw drops I am being fed on pure piffle and their left over slops The President's son Hunter Biden are you kidding me When we ever see real justice, it is never going to be The last time justice was served they'd hung Saddam And; even that turned out, to be a bit of a darn sham Did I forget Libya, O' lets give that one a bit of a miss Nothing heard more from there, but, it sure ain't bliss Now I found Kim Wrong Un and Trump a bit of a laugh Like 2 daft kids, who threw their ducks out of the bath They forever pressing each others toy nuclear buttons Then there was the way, Trump handled "em Russians Slowly and surely, I have been left with feeling insane I just can't do this for the next ten years flamin' again My hope is Greg Abbot; comes through with his words Stopping darn illegal immigrants coming in their herds He's the only one as coming up with any logical sense If he stopped being a soft ball, I also liked Mike Pence Now; does anyone want to hear Pakistan's latest song That jumped up PM; Imran Khan, is gone, gone, gone That folks, I think, is the end of my Wednesday's vent So if you got to the end line; thanks to your ears bent Indiana "Rent a Vent" Shaw . . . ; )

I think I woke up a little to early, Sara, with it all on my head, so, I thought I would write it all down, so, I could get back to bed . . . ; )
