Best Backers Poems

My favorite President is yet to be
  He may well not go down in history
For he'll do what really needs to be done
  Antagonizing almost everyone under the sun

First he'll fix Social Security; it's running short of cash
  Upping retirement age to...

OK PD let me explain to you how it is why you are only successful because of me 
regarding all your supporters and sudden notoriety.
There I was. There was P D. 
I'd been around awhile, but not my little PD.
I had and still do have...

We are merging and surging, and rapidly purging.  
A rich man is buying our company, and he is bringing us backers, and hackers,

Best of all a stash of great cold, hard, green cash.
We are throwing out desks, and we are throwing out chairs.
Some out...

Back in 2013 the President 'resetting,' drew a line in the sand
  Syria sprinted across it; faced no response from our end

So, Bashir Assad killed his own countrymen with chemical gas
   hundreds upon thousands fled Syria, Europe's problem, alas*

Then near the end...

“Jealousy”
Jimmy had odds to beat, one he was a black teen and the temptations of big city’s Streets. 
But a single black mother’s determination held his attention sternly,
So he had only Minimal interaction with streets.
He had rickets but Jimmy could catch any ball.
He ran with...

my soul is the shape of a bloodstain
poured there by Nadine Maraschino
my right eye sits
in the ruby voodoo goblet
that she wears upon her head
Nadine was a 3-toed egg laying harpy
from the cauldron of shame
but she used her brain cleverly
with candor and anti-obfuscatory ardor
it was the...

Each day foul critters infest our house
Though not by slipping in like a mouse
We just press a button
Or buy a subscription
To get news wrote or spoke by a louse

These creatures of the two legged kind
Try hard each day to persuade our mind
With sly information
That helps...

THE COACH
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS

 
Went to an alumni meeting last week
 Looking for solace, the outlook was bleak
We lost a game we should have won
A total disaster to all not just some
Cries of anguish torrents of pain
“How the hell did we lose that game”

Three close...

You throngs of foolish Americans, why could you not see
what motivates Trump and overlook the faults of Hillary?
You were blinded by his lies and the blatant mockery
that he made of 200 years of this country's Democracy.

Trump may have won the Presidency but America loses.
When his...

The American Way

In every neighborhood
There are problems that arise.
Some never get resolved
No one that fact denies.

However:  the other day
A big story was in our paper.
Of a group of upset neighbors
Pulled off a “real-estate” caper. 

It seems the lovely development
Was being constantly harassed.
By big money...

THE INCUMBENT
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS

I am sick and tired of hearing the same old line
My elected representative says every things fine
He just does not represent the people I know
He’s been there forever its time for him to go 
Against good advice I’ve decided to handle
A run...

Universal Education,

It’s no secret it’s no surprise that no one degree is set equal,

My question if money is universal and cash is on hand,

When money come digitally could one be forgiving of the debt ceiling,

I’ m no astronaut freedom above the land similar among quick...

McRaccoon had a plan to steal again… He would usurp all the theatrical arts.
No holding back, mind running high on ambition, he’d rule Vegas, from the start.
He would dominate Sigfrid and Roy, with only a plan and his illustrious, smarts.
But he needed our help… Did...

Iniquity, impunity, injustice invade Internet interaction
Alongside odious obliteration and cunning coercion
Facilitated and militated with unabashed attention and intention   

To minutest details
To misspell the capture of heads and tails
Which in essence sells injustice and slays sails

The freedom Internet users
Ought to enjoy without being the...
