Had a mishap with some glue
He thought he would cheat
And not fall off his seat
Now both buns are stuck to the loo...

Mishap
My feline was asleep on my lap,
just enjoying her midday cat nap.
She fell off the chair,
then turned with a glare,
and proceeded to give me a slap....

Cruel Fool Who Would Ridicule

Found that Trump was truly a fool;
Had always constantly  been cruel;
Cause mishap;
In face slap;
Candidly criticize and did ridicule.

Premium Member santa in pink
Santa was embarrassed I kind of think
Because of a bleach mishap, his suit was pink.
Mrs. Claus apologized, up and down her sink.
But in the end, I think he looked darling in pink....

Trump and Mental Mishap
Trump and Mental Mishap

What Trump should do is call it a wrap,
Now that his mind moved off the map;
Always wrong;
Would prolong;
Had been destroyed in a mental mishap.

Magellan's Map Mishap

Magellan, with maps quite askew,
Said, "The Spice Islands? I'll sail right on through!"
He missed every port,
Then ate his own short,
"This 'discovery's' overdue!"

Went in the sea on a hot August day

And all stares were upon her 
A freak wave had put her boobs on display......

Unfortunately, not just once, but almost twice.

Parlor Mishap, Dream On
somehow they forgot
to include one procedure
they asked if I could help them
move you to a bed
I gladly helped lift you up
and stroked your hair one last time...

Trump Took Fast Freighter
Trump Took Fast Freighter

To China, Trump has taken a fast freighter;
While on the way he became chaos creator;
Caused a mishap,
Using wrong map;
Never on time and always two hours later.
