Darwin’s Revenge
Trump’s in trouble
cuz
you can’t rape the virus
you can’t bully the virus
you can’t cheat the virus
you can’t buy off the virus
you can’t lie away the virus
so he’s way outside his skill set

Plague
The dead and their others
lie corpseless in coffins
confined by ideals
the corporates offer
their wages of win
and sages of sour
too often for gains
which piss away hours
and heart’s comfort steals
for irregular options
from menapaused mothers
in sauces of sin
High ho high ho
it’s off to the aquarium we go
we’ll hook some meat
to cook and eat
and then
most hurridly go
Evil can evil
good can good
some is teaching
some is blood
So I’m done
Time to toke
and piss
& bed
~ ~ ~
The Mullbelly Be
This soup we swim
of gospel and weasel
is a thick and weary brine
I got through today
as far as I know hurting no one
plus pleased the wife and cat
I endure
I continue
I try to earn my keep
~ ~ ~
Meat Beat
So many dances this rock roll
there’s the Sisyphus
the Rat Race
the Tortoised Hare
the ReRun
the Karmic Loop-d-Loop
the Follow the Leader
running around the real
wheely fast
and of course the ever present
Let’s Whine Again Like We Did Last Whimper
Guess we do the Do It Again
until we Get It Right
Never enough this almost done
