Wow, the simple pleasures of life!
Remember when just a tan suit was the highlight and topic of discussion on all the news channels?
Yes, a tan suit had the volume turned all the way up and had them in a complete uproar, not no scandals, no corruption, no Epstein files, no bribery, no delusional post and memes, no need for greed, no late night rants and raves, no self obsessions… just a lil ole plain tan suit.
Well, things have truly changed since then, because look at where we are now, smh.
But, as you can see, this what happens when you turn leadership into leader ssh.
Wow!!! What a difference in a day, a person, a country and a mindset.
If I had a dinosaur suit
I would stomp around and loudly toot
stomp stomp stomp toot toot stomp toot
If would make me proud, and I would hoot
if I had a dinosaur suit
mutton-chop sideburns
bellbottoms... flowery, flared
chic… chains and chest hairs
Mr. Kelcie posted a selfie,
That swiftly went all viral.
In it he said he’d like to be wed
In a suit of chiefly red.
His tailor didn’t sing along.
Reviled by his lack of style,
Claimed she wouldn’t stitch a thread
On a suit of chiefly red.
crisp shirt and silk tie
freshly polished black wingtips
dapper gentleman
he fools the naïve
manners are impeccable
hiding his evil
I took my new friend from Mars,
to the store not to the bars.
He was accompanied by his little green dog,
many thought he was a funny looking frog.
They messed their little green suits,
so no more fresh fruits.
A diaper they will need,
so they can go home and be freed.
Give me a sailor suit and a black hat
Please let me call Captain Nemo “cap”
This is the Nautalis and that is that
Twenty thousand leagues, then we’ll take a nap.
I wear my suit while my house burns
I wear my suit while my wife dies
I wear my suit when my son’s body arrives
And I wear my suit for you Donald Trump
I wear my suit while Russians torture
I wear my suit as bombs explode
I wear my suit for my lost future
I don’t wear my suit because I am told
I wear my suit to greet the reaper
I wear my suit through the genocide
I wear my suit cos yours is cheaper
I wear my suit with my dead bride
I see your suit, it hides your crimes
I see your suits disguising your hate
I see your suits siding with murderers
I see your suits by Putin’s side.

An assemblage was held among fruit
to decide the best color of suit.
Apples and strawberries said,
"The best color must be red".
A banana said, "yellow is cute".
Jump suit in public
Such clothes, a woman's secret,
Dream, zest disappear.
press conference
cacophony of voices
please, please ~ call on me
Fraid of losing you
Til I realized you
Weren't mine in the
First place
Looking out for myself
Saw that crooked smile
On yo face
Whatez unbelivible to me
Is that you kinda like seeing
Me suffering
Suffer ye yourself
Think I had e'nuff and

Leave me alone
Take your thing
Get the hell on

See things your way
But you horrible to me
No matter what your
Freindez say
Straight from my heart
We greatest when

Say what you want
Mean and evil as you is
You just want people to
Take yourside

Leave me alone
Grab your things
Get the hell on
Playing opera
When I am blue
Problem with me is you
Tune it up the right way
Then do your thing
I still want you ah round
But not is you acting
Silly like ah clown
Tell you what it is
You need ah wife maybe
Sum kids
Gone do your thing

The Phatty lady sings
Fraid of losing you
Til I realized you
Weren't mine in the
First place
Looking out for myself
Saw that crooked smile
On yo face
Whatez unbelivible to me
Is that you kinda like seeing
Me suffering
Suffer ye yourself
Think I had e'nuff and
I say
Leave me alone
Take your thing
Get the hell on
I don't know

Sum kids
Gone do your thing
Ain't over til
The Phatty lady sings
In my heart it sees presently
My eyes beat silently;
My brain energy;
My soul cries, laugh ps and sighs
I mutter by
Vessel encased in a glass suit

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr © 2024
If there was a suit
A suit of sensors
Aware of your actions
Following your mind, your movements
A jeopardy suit
That killed you with a lethal injection
When an imaginary galleon hit you with cannon fire
Or you clipped a stealth fighter’s wings with your own
Or crashed your tank in an ambush
Would you wear it?
Would you wear the jeopardy suit?
Are you already wearing the jeopardy suit?
