Like a fiddle that plays the riddles of Alex Jones

With dark and gloomy
Conspiracy theory overtones

A riff on the Thune memo
Another Trump sycophant demo

Blaring out ugly chords
That twist and turn their musical cues

Till the listeners
Can no longer dissemble

Fact from fiction
Con games Conspiracy theories Fake News!

We will help restore the American dream

You are all up for hire!

Yogi LaLa

white concrete buddha statue

High amongst the Mountains

In the Spiritual Land of Tibet

There sat One Yogi LaLa

Who owed the Dalai Lama

A Great Debt

After Years and Years

Of Meditating

From lit Moon

Until rising Sunset

He Awoke

Enlightened

One Morning

From Atop

The Rocky Apex

And Screamed!

Donald Trump will become the United States President?

World Lord Sheriff Tariff!

Then foresaw visions

In The cloud

Of the impending economic social political

Holistic Democratic dread

 

Republic of Duplicity

Republican Politicians have shown themselves to be craven and without scruples

They take their lessons from The Donald and as such:

Have abdicated their role as Leaders into unseeing, unknowing, uncaring, un-enlightened pupils

Without question

They cannot see

What is plain to you and me

They can only communicate

In the language of duplicity

Orwellian double-speak

Which further puts into question

Their complicity

With Boss Tweedle-dum/Tweedle-dee

 

The Black Washington

“The Black Washington”

Also known in Haiti as Toussaint Louverture

Is one of History’s finest generals

The military record is clear

Defeating the day’s greatest armies

France and England

As a revolutionary leader

And Freedom Fighter

He has no peer

American History textbooks

His Foreign Affairs

Should be laid out plainly

At every American school child’s chair

 

The Superior Presidency and American Exceptionalism

Photo by Mikhail Nilov on Pexels.com

The Donald’s narcissistic qualities, borne out first from his role as a rich real estate developer, are only more heightened with his celebrity status.

The Presidency is the pinnacle and acts as a divine acknowledgement of his own superiority. A superiority he has understood for seventy-plus years: now heightened.

The Donald would be fired in short order at any respectable working class job where he was expected to keep up with the Joneses.

Ignorance is always the most overt quality in those who deem themselves superior to others.

Whether it is learned by race, religion, or gender’ Race and class are the most obvious way to the illusion of supremacy.

Superiority plays itself out in so many different ways in the competitive American Culture. It deserves it’s very own meme.

The Me-Me-Me Supreme!

The Culture of The Individual acts like a bubble.

Encouraging hard-working Americans to eschew those economically disadvantaged as lazy, negative, and not praying (at least not properly) rather than to deal with any of it’s Structural Rubble.

“If I did it why can’t they”

Rules the day

Canceling out empathy for those who have gone stray

Due to the dastardly penalty of economic and social disarray!

Why would anyone listen to what those “radical liberals” have to say?

This common Republican refrain

Is just a form of painting with a broad brush

As a white ignorant racist espouses black lineage

Means Negros can only know the bush

The politicization of vaccines 

As the Republican individualized “anti-government non-politician” circus buffoonery goes mainstream

Will bring society further apart and deliver more pain

To perniciously work against as their un-original refrain says

“Make America Great Again”

 

The Rendering of Ebenezer

The white-robed ghost

A feline muscled host

Appeared through the brisk night

Amidst a flickering candlelight

Leave me alone!

Why hath thou entered my home!

Apparition!

I have earned my keep!

Miser!

Thou shalt learn to be wiser!

This Christmas Eve night expect little sleep!

The Ghost of Christmas Past fiery eyes glowered at the trembling town financial lender.

Bah! Humbug!

Scrooge’s gravelly voice cried out with foolish pride!

Have I not unto Caesar always rendered?

Be aware!

The admonishment enveloped the room with spectral stare

Your time spent here

Tis your piety to the working class and poor that shalt be remembered!

What thou can take away

On each man/woman’s fated day?

Matters nil the riches brought forth to Caesar!

What you have done

As seen by the sun

Not for yourself

But unto others

Is your final judgement

Nay material blessings!

Do you understand now Ebenezer?

Laissez-Faire Purple Rain

One can never learn about Finance
And the Economy
By imbibing solely
From Leviticus and Deuteronomy
Anyone loosely versed in the
Republican Jesus Free Market
Knows it is being set up for a
Casino Run Bull Market
Except if you ain’t got
No Skin in the Game
You will not participate
In the Riches
Material Blessings
Nor Fame
So if you went along
For the Dreamy Business Waters
Of the Campaign Trump Song (And Dance)
It reminds me of an Old Prince Song
Purple Rain
Credible
Edible
Tangible
Except it ain’t
Until the next financial crash
Ala Laissez-faire
Strikes the middle class and poor again

Fear Ideas

The notion is that Socialist (Public school, police, fireman, Post office, bridges)

Liberal (Diverse socially, politically, and culturally)

Conservative (Save government money via checks and balances on fraud, corruption, and bad policies)

Marxist (Checks on Income Inequality, Class Inequalities in Society)

Radical (Free Speech Protests, Creative Thinkers, New solutions or Ideas)

Cynical?

Are more than simple ideas?

The United States will become the new Venezuela jeers?

Do you want all of your information

From the Business sphere?

This is as to be a frog

Stuck in a well

The only world

Is Up!

Encased in that life-giving

Prison hell

The warmth of the sun

Slowly baking you

As it at first light

Dampens your fears

Never leaving time for tears

This fear of original policies

Economic

Social

Political

Taking flight!

As new ideas

the appeal camels
