STILL GREENLAND?

TRUMP STILL WANTS GREENLAND

GREENLAND SAYS THIS IS OUR LAND

TRUMP CAN GO POUND SAND

Politically Incorrect

Sooner or later the presiding politician
will be pushed off his perch
made to do the walk of shame
on his own and left in the lurch
then marched off into eternity
no matter how loud he begs
with head bowed down low
and tail tucked between his legs
he went on to bomb and kidnap
after his flag unfurled
and became the self-elected
policeman of the world
by annexing Canada and Greenland
he wants to make America large
guilty of piracy on the high seas
blame those who put the clown in charge
he may beg plead bribe or cajole
only to wear on our nerves
but on the whole let's dump the chump
and hope he gets what he deserves

TACO AGAIN

GREENLAND NO ATTACK

TRUMP HAD TO TAKE HIS WORDS BACK

THEY GAVE HIM A SMACK

A Bipartisan, Bicameral Visit

They come with polished shoes and clipped smiles,
a delegation of two parties, two chambers,
chasing headlines across the sea,
while the ice beneath our feet has no such illusions.

“Do not worry,” they say,
as if reassurance can purchase sovereignty,
as if Greenland were a chess piece
on the board of tweets and tariffs.

We nod politely, pour the coffee,
watch them measure fjords with their eyes,
thinking in votes and press releases,
while we measure time in centuries of ice.

Takeovers may glitter in their imaginations,
but here, the land remembers—
it remembers treaties,
it remembers patience,
and it laughs quietly under the aurora.

So go back, legislators,
to your chambers and your cameras,
we will remain:
not a prize, not a footnote,
but Greenland,
with glaciers that do not bend to ambition.

Trump Announces Steeper Tariffs on European Nations in Pressure Campaign to Purchase Greenland

the man with the orange mouth
stood behind a wall of flags
and said he wanted a country
like it was a steak
or a blonde with bad judgment

Europe blinked.
spilled its espresso.
checked the fine print.

“we’ll tax your wine,” he said,
“your cars, your cheese, your history.”
said it like a bartender
cutting off a drunk
who still thinks he’s charming.

Greenland sat there
cold and quiet
watching empires argue over ice
like children fighting over
the last cube in a warm drink.

nobody asked the seals.
nobody asked the snow.
nobody asked the graves
under all that frozen silence.

just men in suits
measuring the world in profits
and pretending geography
was real estate.

and somewhere
a fisherman in Copenhagen
lit a cigarette
and laughed so hard
he nearly dropped his nets.

because kings always think
they can buy the ocean.


TARIFFS

TARIFFS ON NATO

TRUMP GREENLAND TO US MUST GO

DO AS I SAY SO

GREENLAND

You were named
to seduce hope.
Erik the Red
sold you with a lie.
Green land
for frozen bones.

Once unwanted.
Now desired.

Not for love.
For power.

Not for people.
For position.

America looks at you
with hungry eyes.
Not with respect.
With appetite.

But land
is not meat.
And nations
are not for sale.

You belong
to your people.
To your history.
To your scars.

Colonialism, they said,
was buried.

But greed
does not die.
It only
changes flags.

Gandhi warned us:
Need is human.
Greed is a curse.

When resources shrink,
brothers become enemies.
And friendship
turns into strategy.

America,
you were meant
to be a guide.

But you stagger
like a drunk father—
loud, lost,
and dangerous.

Europe,
do not sleep
inside borrowed safety.

The one who guards you
today
may test you
tomorrow.

Power never loves.
It calculates.

And history has taught us:
When empires hunger,
even brothers
become prey.

About Greenland

Keep hairy paws all to yourself
The land of ice is not for sale
Hey, Donny, you're an evil elf
Write yourself out of this tale

TELLING TRUMP TO GO POUND SAND

NOT WHAT DONALD TRUMP PLANNED

Greenland

Greenland 

Has been in focus back in the days
when the Vikings when there was a thaw
had cattle there
The Vikings when not drinking Mjod liked
drank milk for its health benefit
Now Trump, wants that land which is vital
to keep China away, he says
European leaders are in a twist, protest 
but has little power to stop USA's might
There is the hope to persuade Trump that
to station NATO in Greenland might stop
Trumps onslaught
If the USA , the child/ man will not accept 
it will be the end of NATO
The world will inch closer to a devastating
war of the world, leaving no winners

Premium Member Greenland Speech

Let’s make the Greenland green again
Melt down the ice with fire
Let’s build on Greenland’s pleasant land
A city of desire 
Erect the towers most gigantic
And hotels on the coast 
The biggest port on the Atlantic
I dare to propose 
Let’s make some money out of soil
I hope you understand
We’ll label it a Greenland oil
A number one oil brand
The Danish king must be well paid
To him we’ll do no harm
We’ll offer him a job to paint
A brand new coat of arms
I’ll be depicted in my pants
With a stone axe in hand
Parading on the golden sands
Of Greenland’s pleasand land!
