Short Getters Poems

Blatant Bill Propose

Blatant bill by congress they did propose;
When a weirdo on you grows and grows;
Latest have heard,
Is totally absurd;
Trump has orange hair and nose that glows.

Guess anyone else would call them
attention getters.

I guess in the old days, rules were made for 
a reason.
Now, attention getters gone amuck like
beings in a quiet room with a loud crashing 
season.

Especially when your once best friend,
Takes a hammer to God’s high ceiling
of moral class.
And their once, high written poetry is now 
an attraction for poetic, immoral trash.

Idlers, like electricity, choose to travel...
           the path of least resistance;

             meeting "The impossible"
           with immediate resignation.

     However, the mantra of go-getters:
   "Get it done, or perish at the attempt!"

North Korea Now and Not Black Power

Is a prosaic 
Of something quite archaic
Country far behind.

This is what I thought of after
watching news about North
Korea exploding another bomb.
Inferior countries are looking for
attention getters to overcome 
and compensate for an inferior
complex. Of course, they thing
an occasional show of force and
people with uniforms full of medals
will also add to the austerity.
