Freedom of Religion

Infiltrating Trump's embargo
An Imam reached Mar-a-Lago
But his Call to Prayer
Just floated on air
The Trumps worship at Wells Fargo

Premium Member Chicago Embargo

If a poet who hails from Chicago
Booked his poems on a trip with Trivago
Would his wit and his charm
Cause the site fatal harm
Get the soup placed under embargo

Long heart

In the valley of death where I have plenty of friends 
Where your debts are paid and you don't have to pretend 
Where if you want to stand alone you can confess your sins
Where there's no embargo on pain and the fun never ends
Where you regret all that you've ever done wrong
And you try to stay in tune while singing lifes song
And may have to limp after kicking against the prongs
Because some think life is short while others think it's to long.

Love

Love, an atom,
destroys our life.

Love, a poison,
carries our death.

Love, a storm,
uproots our peace.

Yet I am ready
to die for love.
What a tragedy,
I die for love!

Spanish Version

Amor

Amor, un atomo,
Destruye nuestra vida.

Amor, un veneno,
nos conduce a la muerte.

Amor, una tormenta,
Desarraiga nuestra paz.

Sin embargo estoy listo
para morir por amor.
Que tragedia,
Morir por amor

HOLIDAY FUN

It was Santa’s busiest night
And nothing was going quite right.
The sleigh, well past it’s best,
Had just failed its flight test
And Rudolph’s red nose had turned white.

Global warming had melted the snow;
A hurricane started to blow.
Santa’s throat was red raw
And felt terribly sore.
He could barely whisper “Ho ho”

He declared a gift embargo;
The elves unloaded his cargo.
Then, on-line from his bed,
He sent vouchers instead,
All delivered by Wells Fargo

Trumped and Thumped



Tangerine tan man masterplan such chumps

Plumps to rain down bombs on Iranian clumps

Logic stumps as facts and pacts again dumps 


Throat lumps as fossil fool fuel prices jumps 

Getting trumped and thumped at the pumps

Oil barons gloat gazumps.. economy slumps


No cargo due to embargo everything flumps

Even a MAGA fan is now down in the dumps

Grumps got the hump with Mar a Lago frumps 

Thicker than Forrest Gump deadlier than mumps
