Annie Hall

Annie Hall
was finally invited to the Governors Ball
but didn't take Woody
whom so many had said couldn't dance, could he?
Form: Clerihew


Galloping Gop Migraines

Republican governors agree
Solving problems is not meant to be
Just take a peek
At Trump's technique:
And re-direct most maliciously
Form: Limerick

Lame Blame Game

Trump orders everyone to church
Or Governors will get the birch
Americans will pay
On Memorial Day
With God to blame, Trump ends his search
Form: Limerick

Premium Member Promises Kept

U.S. Governors take a 'Hypocritic Oath'
Vowing stubbornly to be blind to both

  Whatever contradicts their beliefs
  Or might give their citizenry relief
Form: Epigram

The Highest Calling

The Press
should serve
the governed
not the governors

A voice
of truth
untethered
running free

A Journalist
the highest
calling
with words intrepid

To save
the struggling nation
child
— and thee

(Dreamsleep: July, 2026)

Politicians Congressman, Senators, Mayor's, Governors In city, states presently Now and in the past tense Yesterday's voted in governing The land while in the voting booth We pencil in our choices Who will lead us

To all you governors out there
   Who won't let citizens choose
How to conduct their daily lives
   Midst these pandemic blues

I've written a little poem
   Especially for you
I hope that you'll read it
   'Cos it's 100% true:

America's lifeblood
   Small businesses
   Locked down tight
Politicians' mandates
   Have bid them goodnight

Poor Slave

So darn poor

Even the slaves took pity

And the devil stole my moonshine

Swing me down to the river

Blue monday mothers child

The world left behind
turned it's back on

Cotton picking corn husk fingers

Brother of the necklace rope

Swinging from the Joshua tree

Tennessee , Mississippi , Louisville

Sweet home Alabama

In Birmingham they sure do love the governors

Thank you for taking the time to show me how to write. Thank you for the sleepless nights you spent marking my work, Thank you for the time you took off holidays to give me extra attention when I needed it, I am who I am because of you Your hands have molded governors and presidents rock stars and writers. Thank you for showing me how to hold a pen So that I can write this.

Oblivion

Mired in the worst humanitarian crisis 
Syrian refugees seek shelter from ISIS
Cries are heard throughout our nations 
Governors set up SWAT Team Stations

"Why put us in danger?" the signs reflect
People ravished in lines with little effect
No matter how torn nor hungry ye be
Ye shall not live in the Home of the Free!

For now they all wait seeking shelter and food
Their tomorrow depends on America's Mood!
