Trump and his fig leaf of tariff

To trump, MAGA dreams depend on tariff,
The math adds up or not, nor yet what if,

Minutiae, mental gym
To him, more than enough just a fig leaf.

The Tariff Wars

There are no bombs, nor guns ablaze
No killing fields or bloody sands
Yet world is driven into craze
From “sweet old home” to distant lands

Mosaic shattered on the wall
To shreds is ripped old gobelin
Oh why, but why we started brawl
The one we cannot ever win?

I want to think there was a cause
A noble path to richer life

Tariff For Tea

Tea in the well
Gin in the sea
Spices are floating 
In the clouds with me

Company so make
your reservation

a thousand realities.

As they were trying to make shortcuts to get to the

The Tariff in my Soul

A strange fire is burning in my soul
you have to do something about it
before it consumes the world
It is melting the ice and it is
moving towards paradise

Please do not take my savings 
and pension away from me
I have earned it on bended knees
something has gone terribly wrong and you
have got to change the tune before

Just Fix It

A Fix Or Repair Daily was toted
Where Fix It Again Tony was noted

Closed garage doors
So my Kick It Again got demoted.

Farmers Market

Trump says, "Trade Wars are easy to win!"
To be sure, Trump will tweet that again
So far Trump has lost
And can't count the cost
But you will when the grandkids move in!
