Trump Will Get Up Tight

Trump Will Get Up Tight

There are times Trump does get up tight,
And of him women have still run in spite;
Trump the terror;
A trouble bearer;
Regardless of being women black or white.

Jim Horn

Women will run in spite of others. They
accept the challenge even if from a terror
or trouble maker who really need an 
undertaker and found to be a faker.

Up Tight and Tense

Up Tight and Tense

Often have gotten up tight and tense
When things never made any sense
And would end up in the air,
When with me did not share
Ideas or ever give me a few hints.

Jim Horn

Up Tight

Up Tight

Everyone has been up tight
Always trying to get it right
Facts were presented
But boss had not consented
Then tongue started to bite.

This has been a big pain
about emails.

Gorgeous Or Up Tight

Gorgeous or Up Tight

We never knew how long it would last
Could be in present or perhaps the past
To attend conventions we were excited
Can you imagine us actually being invited.

Could experience be the critical teacher 
I heard in a sermon by a bright preacher
Or person with bright hair who around did tote
His coat on shoulder trying to get your vote.

If time tries to tell hope it really is true
And after the election is over and through
Would woman win who was a gorgeous sight
Or a man who made women feel up tight.

Be ye a young Republican or old Democrat
Should to be interesting and that is that.

Another poem with Will Rogers thinking in it.

Was Up Tight With a Shiite

Was Up Tight or With A Shiite

From day was born and one I will die
God is there to help and then satisfy;
Not only to have and hold your hand
But squeeze it so hard you can't stand.

For my poetry writing, God does prepare;
Frees my soul from sin and its snare;
No longer will I be trapped anymore,
Dust myself off and devil do deplore.

Free at long last and over and over again
God so graciously did for all of my sin;
Now many more precious poems can write
And was up tight with a Shiite and took flight.
Good night!!!
