Short Beltway Poems

Acorned Beltway,
               Commerce Moves;

Feats Of Victories,

Mantle, ..... Boom's!...

Dragon has a date
And wants to borrow the car; 
Decked out in his tux,
A size three hundred deluxe.
Top down, he crashed on beltway!

I see them fighting like cats and dogs
but taking money like fatted hogs,
so while they spend and spend
we get screwed in the end...
Hail to the Washington demagogues!...

A deer was slain on the Beltway
My car drove along her body
I heard horns behind me
Slowing down to look at her poor carcass

That evening, brushing my teeth
Before going to bed, I saw
In the mirror her big eye
Where the sky was like frozen slime...

Donald the First
(to the tune of Henry the eighth – if you like)
By Franklin Price
10/18/2018

I'm Donald the first I am
Donald the first I am I am
I was elected to the highest seat
Showed all the liberals they could be beat
And I'm the best one there ever was 
The best one that you will ever see
Smarter than all in the beltway
Best president there ever will be

(No second verse- I think I've said it all...lol)...

Plastic clouds sherbet skies
meeting place of the stones.
You were too hard today
the way you sat there.
so I took a walk across the mind
of silly thoughts and memories.
A slither pinned in medulla,
a pinstriped boy pulled her.
The ocean drowned the Earth
as we watched the little ones
running for the backstage
forgetting all their lines.
I guess the beltway fades
as the cockroaches die.
We are the mind, only one;
a mind to mend the sky
