What I Think Will Come True This Year

The czars and the kings will hold on to their throne chairs
until they are dragged out kicking and screaming,
tweeting all the way to their dungeons.

Nuclear winter is a few years down the road, but global warming
will have people flocking to Kansas soon from Florida which 
will drop into the sea.

The Texaco Shareholders and their families will build a wall, 
and stay inside, breathing their own greed and selfishness.

Jesus will be saving other planets, not concerned at all about our silliness, 
as we have so many wanna-bees here.

Stocks will go up and down, so many times. It will be called the 
yo-yo year of the stock market. 

The girl next door will develop narcolepsy and 
refuse to come out of her house or answer the door, 
not telling us it has flown into agoraphobia.

It will be the year of the PIG, and the pig will be orange 
and be featured on balloons with diapers. 
A misogynist bully-pig.

This is what I think.

Mahtab Bangalee Date: 1/16/2019 9:51:00 PM oh; it seems we are all in abnormal fear of being helpless in a situation from which escape may be difficult or embarrassing that is characterized initially often by panic or anticipatory anxiety and finally by the avoidance of open or public places////great thinking Login to Reply Caren Krutsinger Date: 1/17/2019 9:41:00 PM Yes there it is....ABNORMAL fear, and I think most fear fits well under that category.

Gershon Wolf Date: 1/16/2019 9:46:00 PM --And Caryn will post 140 poems every 14 days---or maybe 139... :) gw Login to Reply Gershon Wolf Date: 1/17/2019 2:21:00 PM You know, if you hadn't told me otherwise, I definitely would have believed you (i.e., that you're on different sites now). Furthermore, I predict that you'll burst past that limit of a paltry '16' a day and probably get to 25 or so. (Why set limits? Greatness will out!) :) gw Caren Krutsinger Date: 1/17/2019 11:36:00 AM I do, Gershon, I do! I am on different sites now. Just kidding! Sixteen a day is pretty much my limit.

Vera Duggan Date: 1/16/2019 6:52:00 PM Brilliant Caren, we could get rid of the world leaders for a start, year of the Pig eh! be interesting to see what will happen, take care my friend......Vera Login to Reply Caren Krutsinger Date: 1/16/2019 9:29:00 PM Thank you Vera. I did not really think it was brilliant at first, but I thought that it was a "reflection of the times" according to Trixie and I, and she leads me around and makes me do when we feel strongly enough about something.

M. L. Kiser Date: 1/16/2019 1:33:00 PM Nuclear Winter? No, no, no, no, no, no, unless the world leaders are just idiots! (What am I saying?) Okay an orange pig; possible, that I don't deny but, how about purple or green? Maybe purple with green polka dots? Yes, I'm hoping you just made that all up.
