Washington in flux
Stimulus dollars squandered
Corporate big wigs laugh --
Ignorant approach rebuked
Voters cast out incumbents
In confessionals of doubt
he chased absolution
The devil unmasked
—his penance forsworn
(Washington Chapel: November, 2021)
The Elegy
From Chicago to Washington
Guns play their fatal crescendo
Not much glissando
Too many musicians
Or too many instruments?
Clowns in Washington
Performing in tainted masks
Fraud and deception
Politicians and diapers must be changed often, and for the same reason.
Mark Twain
no wonder Washington is a stinking cesspool!
Champion of life,
trophies on the road
Accolades for someone else,
—one more thing to know
(Seattle Washington: March, 2017)
The Washington Sunburns can't play
With COVID-19 in the way
But those in the pink
May go to the clink
If God's little children hold sway!
R elaxing
a nother day of not getting the yard mowed
i nviting unwanted critters in my already soaked garden
n ever a dry day in washington
Nero fiddled, Rome burned
Washington quibbled, Americans learned
to buy a gun to defend their homes
and a great big hose for fires that roam
Mrs. Margaret 'Molly' Corbin:
A true Revolutionary War heroine.
When her husband in battle fell dead,
Though wounded, she fired his cannon instead.
Richard Nixon could not tell the truth
George Washington could not tell a lie
Donald Trump can not tell the difference
He just wants to torture a spy!
There’s a teacher out in Morro Bay
Who won’t celebrate Presidents Day
Washington—Lincoln
Sure—Now you’re thinkin’
But Pierce and Buchanan? No way!
2/18/22
A chicken and green corn soup
White terrapin stew
Canvas duck and red cabbage
Huckleberry cake
And Washington pie
Strawberry
Fizz!
Curtesey of Mrs Beeton
So now out of Washington comes word,
of a proposal you just may have heard
of renaming Greenland
"Red, White and Blueland".
It's the new definition of "absurd".
Tears are shed in Washington
the news is so sad
the death of one of our own
a tragic moment
reminds us a star can fade
upon Fed Ex field
we will keep his memory
Washington chopped down his pop’s cherry tree.
He led our armed forces to victory.
And then just for kicks,
he entered politics.
How far did George go with his honesty?
Moe, Larry, Curly are gone
but the stooges still live on
you'll find them in Washington
of us, they make fun
Entry for John Freeman's contest
Washington & Adams retired to their lair
Jefferson invented the swivel chair,
Taft went back to the law-
Of late,cashing-in seems the plan
Only Harry ,was a true man
There’s a new führer in Washington town
He is intensely confident and bold
A buffoon, weird misogynist, a fool, a clown
The only good thing about him? He is rather old
I see them fighting like cats and dogs
but taking money like fatted hogs,
so while they spend and spend
we get screwed in the end...
Hail to the Washington demagogues!
Millions of Ukrainians without water, power or heat
But his pronouns he didn't know
Volodymyr beat a hasty retreat
Hopeful he came; incredulous he would go
What
Was it
That this
World
Was wanton
No more
War
They scream
On capitol
Hills
And in
The common
In Washington
Praying
This time
That those
Motions
Will pass
Washington
Willing to fight
Afraid of nothing
Silver haired
Hungry for freedom
Important historical figure
Never once backing down
General George
Tall and tame
Original
Name
Thoughts About A Train
There are thoughts I have about a train;
Used by passengers maybe might refrain;
Stop using;
Do refusing;
On Washington State, wreck left a stain.
Jim Horn
Our Congress George Washington cannot save
Honest Abe's rolling over in his grave
So many lies, such deceit
It's well past time to unseat
Those Law-fakers ~ Hold the fire to their feet
