Big Idiot Becoming
Big Idiot Becoming

Big idiot Trump is becoming;
Below 60 intelligence is summing;
Such a mental case,
Who is way off base;
Of all knows most about nothing.

Trump Big Idiot
Trump Big Idiot

Trump big idiot rapidly is becoming,
And below 60 intelligence is summing;
Careless mental case,
Who is way off base;
Out of him at all expect exactly nothing.

Trump Without a Spine
Trump Without A Spine

We always knew Trump was without a spine;
Less having called someone a Frankenstein;
Never did share;
Caught in snare;
Was far off base and completely out of line.

Jim Horn

As usual, related to news of the day....

No Shame
How can they play a fair game ;
when there is no shame.
Bitterness, jealousy,and envy rules,
in many of those Ivy Leagues schools.
May you come to use your own head,
and not follow those off-base rules,
of the crowd of wiley, worldly fools.
Monkey see,and monkey do,
learn the whole picture...
and seek the whole view!

Erase
As a writer, I embrace,
To help me when I’m way off base,
A pencil with, in proper place,
A pink expunging saving grace.

For up my sleeve, it is the ace
Which helps me more than just a trace.
Yes, I’d be lost if in this space
I was not able to erase.

We pencil users must keep pace
With techno-geeks or face disgrace.
Erasers keep us in the race.
Cut to the chase – I rest my case!...

Losing Pace
The mirror’s the scariest place
For gazing at my aging face.
I realize that I’m
In the race against time
Fairly certain to lose in disgrace.

Clothes and make-up can help to erase
Certain wrinkles so I can embrace
How I look for a while
And by adding a smile
I can put forth a credible case.

Yet what tells me that I am off base
And persuades me to give up the chase
Is the camera my spouse
Likes to click, which can douse
All my confidence, leaving no trace....

Making a Case
The iPhone 4 I bought today
Just set me back a buck.
It’s last year’s model, quite passé
And so the deal was struck.

I found out that it needs a case
So it won’t fall and break,
But I was really thrown off-base
When I heard – no mistake – 

The purple case I liked (with teal)
Was priced at fifty clams!
What started as a groovy deal
Soon wore the scent of scams.

They say that nothing comes for free
And that is not a lie,
For stores that make no profit
Are in very short supply....
