Shangri-La: Hansa Girl

     (Lo-Tsen's from medieval Germany...? 
I'd heard she was Manchu.)

Indicted: Did in (etc.) 

     (No one is above the law.)

I've Got a Right to Sing in Blues

Now I wend

towards the end

of my rope. 
I have run

short of fun,

faith 'n' hope. 
Life is over.

Life's done.
Life’s (tho’

once sorta fun) 

full of woe:

I can no

longer cope. 

Now I'm play'd out.

I’m wash'd up.

I’m spent. 
Now's the winter,

and I'm

discontent. 
I’m all in.

It’s a wrap. 
Time to take

The Big Nap. 
(Leaves one wond’rin'

where all of it

went.)

Now this case,

like this casement,

is closed,

as the body

erodes --

decomposed.

That last scene

was a flop.

Cut! Don't print it --

full stop.

I've been --

hook, line 'n' sinker --

well hosed.

Now I'm finish’d.

I’m used up.

I’m drain’d.

Sky's gone grey;

name one day

it's not rain'd!

Oi! I'm runnin'

on empty.

I'm krenky,

verklempty.

My options...?

All stopp'd...

or constrain'd.

Now the sands

through my hands

are run out,

I can see

that The Reaper's

en route.

As the curtain's

descending,

"So this

is the ending...?"

I brood --

then conclude,

"Without doubt."

Now the foundry

has ground

to a halt.

Nor no longer's

my song

worth its salt.

Need I now

to name names

as to who

bears the blames...?

Hold the phone:

'tis my own

bloody fault.

MAGAronic

     Truly Uly hears it said: 

MAGA hats are white-on-red.

Through vines of grapes

I heard the line.  
“It just ain’t so,” said I.
When rumor mills

then ground it fine, 
“deny,” I cried. “Deny!”
Then, fin’lly, out

the horse’s mout'

Drumpf's h'rumpf, “I lost,”

was heard.
"'Tain't so," said I.

“You know that guy:

you cannot trust a word...”

Introducing Pig Pearl (& Featuring Her Sidekick Der Gabbermaus)

     Say "howdy do" 

to the blogosphere's 

newest dynamic duo 

of culture warriors.

     Follow the pair's 

metrical escapades 

as chronicled in the

series of seriously

lunatic limericks

appearing below.

     I. Pink Punks a POTUS

     "Damn his 

wig!" pipes pink pig name of Pearl,

     "...if Drumpf's 

chat's that I'm that sort of girl.

     First my 

rubber Drumpf kneaded,

     then 

nearly succeeded

     in 

pawing my pussy, the churl."

     II. Critical Base Theory

     Gab a-

vers: "Ethnic slurs be the basest!"

     Pearl con-

curs: "They're, for sure, 'out-of-place'est.

     Ne'er I'll 

shout, nor'll I natter:

     'No 

jive: Pink Lives Matter!'

     My 

case...? This eraser's no racist."

     III. Ron DeSandbag 

     Pig 

Pearl and Der Gab head for Florida,

     than whose 

governor blusters none horrider.

     "I'll say 

'Gay' if I please," 

     hollers 

Pearl; Gab agrees.

     (As was 

fear'd, though, Ron's veer'd even torrider.)

     IV. Fahrenheit 1984

     "What's with 

books which disquiet the Right...?

     First they 

ban 'em, then set 'em alight.

     Blimey! 

Even the Bible

     they're 

li'ble to libel.

     Thank 

God," grunts Gab, "Pearl's pink, not white."

     V. Which Lies Matter...? 

     "Once, 

folks were black, yellow or brown,"

     observes 

Gab. "Then folks white come to town

     sportin' 

second-rate brains,

     so are 

forced to wear chains..."

    "Pause," pleads 

Pearl. "Weren't it t'other way 'roun'...?"

A Recent Bulletin from the "Anagrams Never Lie" Dept.

 Brobdingnagians: big brain...'n' gonads.

Mauditations

     ("Mau(n)dering"...? "A Mauder of Prose"...? 

"Maudern Thymes"...? "Maudus Operandi"...? 

You decide!)

Does 'Maud' rhyme with 'bawd'...?

Does 'Gonne' rhyme with 'faun'...?
Or does 'Maud' rhyme with 'god'
and 'Gonne' rhyme with 'naan'...?
'Maud' rhymes not with 'mud,'
nor does 'Gonne' rhyme with 'gun.'
Still, this whole freakin' prácás
I'll keep an eye on.
