CLASH OF THE MASTODONS
get ready once more
two mastodons enter the stadium
for more roars and butting of tusks
the media loves rematches
even if most of the public doesn’t
watch Donald dance away
from what he stirred up on 1/6/21
heh heh, nothing to do with me
they got overexcited on their own
you don’t mind if I squash civil liberties next time
see Joe bark at those who
dare to criticize his stance on Israel and Gaza
and his failure to distance from Bibi’s slaughter
he says look, I cut insulin prices,
gave some people student loan debt relief
and got both parties to agree on infrastructure
so suck it up or you get Dictator Trump
this is what we get
when we don’t have big donor money
or super PAC clout
to push for real change
to keep old men with outmoded ideas
away from oval offices and nuclear footballs
NIKKI HALEY HAIKU
I move with the wind
The wind comes from Mar-a-Lago
Don’t blame me for this
TALKING NEW YORK TIMES BLUES
oh oh oh where did it go
talking about the Grey Lady of journalism
once it published The Pentagon Papers
now it hates liberals
shuts down in-house dissent
allows Maggie Haberman to be The Trump Sycophant
wants to view the world from the penthouse
covers Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign
by balancing Kerry Kennedy’s anguish
with gushing over RFK Jr.’s sense of sartorial style
oh oh oh what will it stoop to
after the difficult November election comes and goes
