The Duke of Mar-A-Lago
(Sung to the tune of Gilbert and Sullivan’s "The Duke of Plaza Toro," from The Gondoliers)
 
When all the land did take a stand
When bugs we all were fighting
He led the nation from behind
(He found it more exciting)
But when it came to placing blame
His place...

Mar-A-Lago Poker
The wife took a job that pays pretty fair
Combing out daylight from Trump's orange hair
Displaying his lust
Trump stares at her bust
Confirming an Ace can not beat a pair!...

The Dryad's Scream - 22 Mar 2016
I heard the dreadful Dryad's scream
As axe bit into woody flesh
The sap oozed out as scented cream
My veins stood out in rictal mesh

My wits all scrambled left me quick
My hands and face were full a-sweat
My thumping heart did quite a trick
My breeches foul-smelled were a-wet

Into...

“We are older than  your George Washington;
We have  the tallest fields of cotton
West of the Volga; and our castles are small
But all  guaranteed to enthrall.......”

It appears this swing-a-cat country  
With its pipsqueak army ...

CAPTAIN MAR-VELL

Alien Kree race
Soldier warrior
A spy
Yet humble
Defers a rumble
Done his native Kree warrior

To sometime protect earthlings
Found of treason for protecting humans
Humanity

Temporary logged in the negative zone

 As we did, our youngest daughter-not quite two years old-asked to lead

Like future murmur of soul
In a silent sunset

En tranquila puesta del sol...

Premium Member Chronicles of the Pied Piper of Mar-A-Lago
I'm not sure how it all began, 
When this soothsayer became heroic to some.
As he molded a story of greatness,
Against what our nation has now become.

Those that listened were mesmerized by his fable,
As he wove a tale of conspiracy and doubt.
Then his minions spread the...

Cinco De Mayo
Cinco de Mayo
At Mar-a-Lago
Is serving up Mexican lies

Trump welcomes us all
To pay for his Wall
In a scam each Republican buys

You know Wells Fargo
And Mar-a-Lago
Are models of integrity

Well,  that big Caravan
Is Cartel to a man
There is no true refugee! 

So forget the backlash
Just send Trump...

A Moving Train
I am a moving train
On a journey of no destination 

Desperate as desperate can be
If you have embarked on this train in error 

Resign yourself to fate
For there is no going back

If you are a willing Partaker
In this adventure of desperation 

You are welcome to...
