The Laureate-Supreme Court Puppets


Supreme Court Puppets 

Constitution makes evident
Congress declares how funds are spent.
The Trump puppets on the Court
allow their Don to circumvent.

The Laureate-McConnell at the Senate's Gate


McConnell at our Senate’s Gate

The Spartans at Thermopylae,
Horatius' clash upon Rome's bridge,
fought lethal foes for their country
so freedom would not be hostage.

They’re heroes now within Time’s lore.
But, the Red Pol at Senate’s gate
earns now, from us, intense rancor...
behind his gate good laws stagnate.

             {More Nero, than hero!}

The Laureate-The Mueller Report Attack

The Mueller Report Attack


Most Red Pol attacks on Mueller
reminded me what I abhor...
those lawyers who must win debates
with sarcasm, and little more.
{Yet, Trump now loves his corp.}

The Laureate-Mueller's Report


Mueller’s Report

As yesterday’s poem foresaw
the Prez tweets blare a victory.
The Red pols attacked with blatant gall
to save him from adversity.

Mueller reported he would err
to accused Prez of misdeeds.
Congress alone is the co-heir  
to decide on wayward deeds.

The Prez, again, took to the fore
and used his puppet’s chaff...
to declare he is once more
free to tweet, crow , and laugh.

The Laureate-When Mueller Speaks


When Mueller Speaks

If Prez should watch as Mueller speaks,
I bet he’ll fill our day with tweets.
He’ll blare, again, “media lies”
about all his amazing feats.

The Laureate-My Prez 72319


My Prez 72319

You’ve proved to us you are a schmo...

But the world hears you say go...
‘cause they decry how you deceive.

The Laureate-The Debt


The Debt

Congress must make ev’ry effort
to pay off all our debt.
Instead our pols each year resort
to jeopardize our land’s kismet.

The rule should be pols get four years
to lessen what we owe...
and should Congress stay in arrears
fifty percent must go.

{And every four years who stayed shed tears...
and why, they’ll surely know.}

The Laureate-Trump's Rallies...Really!


Trump’s Rallies...Really!

When the Pres stumps to meet his base,
he oft presents similar shows.
The puppet master keeps same plot...
because, I think, that’s all he knows.
{Lock him up!}

The Laureate-Our 2020 Vote


Our 2020 Vote

Our votes select from Red and Blue...

The White House is a den for rogues...
I think you know what you should do.

The Laureate-Mr. President

I read your tweets everyday
and wonder if you ever work.
I can’t guess how you earn your pay
when all you do is Blue pols irk.

The Laureate-My Prez {7/15/19}


My Prez: {71519}

If you would work across the aisle,
it is much better if you smile.
Your angry tweets,
that but browbeats,
beguile as would a crocodile.

The Laureate-2020


2020

The President and RNC
want 2020 money from me.
I guess some bits of money dark
need to have an addressee.
{I must say, “No!”...blatantly.}

The Laureate-Trump’s Executive Orders


Trump’s Executive Orders

How long will it be before Red Pols
tell Trump he must obey our laws?
He seems to think his catbird seat
makes all parade to his drumbeat.
{The Parade...plus!}

The Laureate-Jeffrey Epstein Trial


Jeffrey Epstein Trial

No matter how it was explained,
the sentence reeks like rotten fish...
most billionaires, when so arraigned,
need but to bribe and make a wish.

Most know the Prez is not that smart,

throughout his tweets and TV lies,
are all enthralled...ford his cesspools.

The Laureate-Tweet Attacks


Tweet Attacks

The Prez started a tweet attack
against Fox News and a Brit.
The Brit received a little flack,
but Trump feels Fox News has hired a twit.
{...a Wharton prof saw his wee wit.}

Happy Birthday, Pat

My muse is having a birthday...
plus she's best friend, lover and wife.
What is the gift that I can give
to the one that lifts my life?*

As we age our strengths must blend,
when troubles come, seek me, your friend.
I*ll hold my muse, my love, my wife...
please know I'm near when you feel strife.

{This card can not say all I think...
as Scot, I'm loath to waste good ink}.

Happy Birthday Pat!

Trump’s Independence Gala

If the Prez is using our tax
to his huge ego satisfy,
while he allows our debt to wax...
our outcry must now vilify.

The Laureate-Independence Day




4th of July

As you gaze upon the sky
as rockets fill the night,
and Sousa’s marches make you cry…
our flag lit by their light,
remember good men fight and die
to shield our dear birthright.
