A turtle in a dirty pond
Was picked up by a dirty blonde
Trump said that the water
Was gonna get hotter
Unless she squirts his magic wand...

EPA is not the fellow
Who made the Animus yellow
All that toxic waste
For mine profits has laced 
Our bed which becomes a bordello*

"we are being screwed (I would be more blunt but certain curse words are not allowed here). This happens all the time.

Also, if any of this bothers you, check out Bernie Sanders on youtube.  I came up with a great campaign slogan:  Bernie Sanders doesn't BS you....

Trump's newly-appointed EPA Chief
Found himself buried in EPA grief

To prove he was no party-pooper
He likened Trump to a Giant Grouper

Swimming against an almighty current
Where even the sharks were no deterrent

Well,  Congress agreed to just let it pass
That's God's honest truth, you bet your wrasse!...

Seemed you blew it.
Truth you would dismiss.

Anger’d brew; it

She sat quite calmly,
Speaking in a common tongue,

Lost in thought and memory;
Dreaming of what might have been,
Pleased with what will never be.
