Drumpft's Epitaphft

     More from guest blogger GFH. 


Drumpft has sailed 

unto his rest. 

Senile retribution 

there must be forgot, 

and loy'lty test 

and all that pussy-grabbin' 

where the loser's 

ceas'd to be a star -- 

now just some burnt shit 

in a jar.

Only The Best People

The Kennedy Center 
has crown'd a new boss --
a gain for Vulgarity.
(Quality's loss.)
Now, Donald shall sever 
the cream from the dross.

Attention, America! 
Cock an ear, please, 
as the Center's golf-shoe-licking
board of trustees 
introduces with pride 
this year's five honorees: 

"Applaud Florence Foster 
(Ms. Jenkins to you)!
It's Flo whose ascents 
lesser divas dar'n't do. 
(Her F above high C's
a tour de force, nu...?)"

"Awardee Ed Wood, 
film director first-class!
Edward's "Plan 9 from Outer Space": 
who'll e'er surpass...? 
(Mr. Wood can't be with us 
this ev'ning, alas.)" 

Amanda McKittrick Ros, novelist... 

William Topaz McGonagall, poet... 

Donald J. Drumpf, polycultural icon....

Curse For Bully POTUS

Today's verses created by guest blogger GFH -- with a few small edits from Uly. 

Trump must get Atomic Wedgies
And be forced to eat his veggies.
Lots of Noogies and Pink Bellies;
No appearances on tellies.
Dutch Rubs and a Tittie Twister 
Need be meted to this blister.
Don't, as well, neglect the Swirly --
Very often...very early.

Dog Day Doggerel


The ruby-eyed cicadas call'd 
the locust's second cousin. 
They surface during summer months, 
when soil's no longer fruzzen
Then, eggs and nymphs no more,
adult cicadas be a-buzzin.' 
(If you think borer bees be loud, 
you really ain't heard nuzzin.' 
I thought I heard a wasp one day;
as things turned out, it wasn.')
And tho' all old cicadas die, 
strange new ones have arusin.' 
They're ev'rywhere. They're in my hair. 
(I've swallow'd sev'ral dozen.) 
The moral of this verse...? 
There's many call'd, far fewer chussen.

Forever Young (The War, You Know)

I, 
in 1942
am born 
(of all the luck!) a Jew. 
The odds predict 
I'll not survive. 
(Indeed, I'm dead
by '45.) 

In '43, 
in Tokyo, 
I'm born -- in wartime,
don't ya know. 
By '45, 
I, too, am toast --
at barely two years old, 
a ghost.

Korea,
Fall of '53. 
An Incheon infant...
Hey: that's me!
At last they're 
drawing down the War. 
(Alas! I'm dead 
by '54.) 

Viet Nam,
1964. 
I'm born amidst 
more Asian war. 
Remember, please, 
this place and date. 
I die at Hue 
in '68.
