Weak weak president can't return detainees.
Weak weak president - Ukraine is not the enemy.
Weak weak headed - sold science for votes.
Weak weak weak - he sinks all our boats.
Weak weak president doesn't grok finance
Weak weak president sucking up to bytedance
Weak weak president dissing on humanity
Weak weak president reviled for eternity.

the rich these days
want a new gilded age
yet have nothing
but trailer-trash tastes
with dollar-store
bric-a-brac
spray painted gold
shoved in every
conceivable space
& their hearts are
as empty as the words
that they weave
building temples
at Narcissius' feet

Frosty Wolves

Two wolves were fighting in my mind
And sorry I could not make them friends
To live the freedom of wolf-kind.
And thus confused I stood, resigned
To wait until their conflict ends.

One wolf, we’re told is dark despair;
The other one is hope and light.
Since yin and yang existed there
I, through reflection, became aware…
Perhaps there never was a fight?

In a false dilemma I’d been caught.
I had to purge the wolf-pretense –
A binary view that I’d been taught.
I broke my chains of polar thought
And that has made all the difference.

(to the tune of "Greensleeves")
My hometown ain't got no drones
The chief of police he told me so
And if I see one, I don't know
But I'm sure it's as pure as winter snow
And so I'll tell you before you go
And shoot them down with arrow and bow
And risk some harm to fingers and toes
The little old town ain't got no drones

A Wombat Carol

Good King Hairynose looked out from his deep-dug cellars
When the fire-front swung about trapping forest dwellers
“Mates, youse all should run, like now!” (Are they all delirious?
Think this fire will stop somehow? Blimey, this is serious.)

As the flames raced through the trees, Hairy’s thoughts grew frantic.
(My front door might be a squeeze, but my home’s gigantic.)
“Listen up you useless dills: this ‘ere spot’s a smelter.
Lizards, Possums, Blinky Bills, welcome to my shelter.”

“Numbats, Bilbies, get in first. Echidnas, Snakes, your turn now.
Kangas shove! The hole won’t burst – better this than burn now.”
In the tunnel dirt they bathed, sand and grit bespattered
But through hell they came unscathed. That was all that mattered.

Working when the hive careens
Seems I've sold my chance to sing.
A silent salary for my berth.

To live and feed and heat the place
Light up screens and explore space
Costs a lot, in fact the Earth.

He's cruel and he's spiteful
He's greedy and hateful
He's driven by grudges
Thinks we should be grateful
But one day next month
He'll be barred from the palace
To face prosecutors
who fear not his malice
He may avoid jail
And he can't feel shame
But History's sure
To revile his name

Fascists and perverts
In MAGA red hats
Are munching on puppies
and kittens and cats

Hoping to raise their
Testosterone count
So they can make babies
In massive amounts

Let's hope in the end
That it won't make much diff
And the drinks in their hand
Are the only thing stiff

Error

A lot of Teslas

A Lot of Teslas
lose at floats,
eat last fools.
Also, felt oats.
Alt loots safe?

O fast sea toll:
Lo! Seat floats!
Aft stool seal
toast, so, fella,
sale: fast loot!

Lol, oafs taste
stools fatale.
Lost a fleat, so
toe-fall, a toss.
Alas, toots elf.

Oh the swirling madness
Comes singing through the neighborhood
Tra la tra la
La hoo hoo hoo hoo
How do you do
How do you do
How do you do
I've come to stay for awhile
You don't know me yet
But I know you

[repeat ad nauseum]

He hired lawyers who echoed his lies
He lost badly, I'm hardly surprised
Shit rolls downhill, we see that it must
For jail's at the bottom. In juries we trust

I'm in fine fettle
so put on the kettle,
'cos a nice cup of tea
would deffo help me.

Put it on hot
on a stove made of metal,
add leaves to the pot, 
and then let it settle.

I'm so very sorry about this. I feel as if my brain should be held responsible entirely separately from me.
