The Key

Three men married one lonely person
Old time Commandments took it on the chin
The twists in the small c's
And the question of priorities
Answer who gets the smile and who gets the sin.
*
Post no bills including Bill's
Forget neither Uilliam's nor Will's
Obsessed with kills
Never with cills
Let it go, Billy O, find different thrills.
*
Things are fixed except for those that should be
All circumstances and approvals must be pre
And still free to choose
Plan A or honest news
Many sides to it all is the key.

Stuck

der Trumpf
"This is the difference between Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders" by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Washington Post

One paragraph from Kathleen Parker in the Chicago Tribune, Sept 3, 2015:
"Genius. Trump is a human handler extraordinaire - the jet-set equivalent of the blackhatted fellow who wheeled his cart into tumbleweed towns. He doesn't just sell snake oil. He milks the venom from the gathering throng of willing believers, then bottles it up and sells it right back to them. Delicious with raw meat."
and
Half of a paragraph from Steve Chapman in the Chicago Tribune, Sept 3, 2015:
"Donald Trump is doing so well because he exploits racial anxieties without ever raising them directly. He complains we are 'losing our country,' ridicules 'political correctness,' accuses Mexicans of 'bringing crime' and claims to represent the 'silent majority.' All these themes are designed to appeal to white resentments and fear of minorities."
*
Unregulated capitalists running amok,
Those they bribe, and one skinny duck
Took a siesta
Before the fiesta,
While shortcuts self scored in the muck.

Founding Sin

en Naipes o Vida
un Forjado de Triunfo
Tu conoces la palabra _sshole?
O coal, mole y vole stole el goal?
Bueno bueno
Dueno sueno
Espectros tiene hambre pero no soul.

"To treat where it hurts, one must first acknowledge that it still hurts, something conservatives often find hard to do because it gives the lie to their self-congratulatory balloon juice about how this country has overcome its founding sin." - Leonard Pitts, 08/24/15, Chicago Sun-Times

The Foam

Some questions:
Is S.E.Cupp the Sarah Palin of 2015?
Which Delaware judges are part of
the pedophile underground network
and which Delaware judges are not?
Why did billions gain wait time and again?
*
Undecided Maybe Syndrome
Occurs within a cranial bio dome
Having much empty space
Behind a lead-filled face
And a compulsion to be the foam.

"Business" of Death

"Publicly-funded, non-private, Congressional and campaign records which reflect the expenditure of public funds" are mine! mine! mine! yelled $chock the thief.
Plead the 5th or not, former hunk, but kindly keep it brief,
Said the law.
You're startin' to stick in everyone's craw,
Unless of course that arm of yours can bring you some relief.
*
Number two! Number two!
What a pile of quite a few!
Number two! Number two!
Keep that number off your shoe!
*
Starve a Rock Feed a Crock
For one reason or another, Illinois crooks and Texas crooks bonded many decades ago. From common law to outside the law, from water droughts to political clouts, they have shared many things. Now they want to die together, helping each other breathe glass, chew water, and quake the earth to a fault. They call it the "business" of death.

The Politicals

Jared needs a distraction from society and its mores. Perhaps he will move to Delaware when he gets out. Or perhaps he will become a governor or a senator or a judge.
*
Human bones in a pink slipper
Rumors about the little dipper
Secret friends
Give the bends
To a really good tipper.
*
After the
Interpretive dance of unseen intangibles
Comes the
Trickle down of accidental beneficials
Woo hoo!
Nothing new
And who gets to nicen up the politicals?

Wake Up!

What a nightmare in cartoon form!
   Der Donald Trumpf became his party's nominee. He chose the Kochs' boy Scott Walker as his running mate. It looked like the perfect marriage of sadist and masochist. One was blind and the other couldn't see their only mandate was to alleviate the sufferings of others. Oh too bad for the rest of us. Voting day was a beautiful one. It was a perfect day for crooks and their trumped up machines. After Donald won, he quit, sold the business to the next guy, and a couple or three people got what they wanted.
Wake up, wake up!
