Haiku of this moment
Wow! Lots of great poems last week on the Zombie Apocalypse we seem to be in the midst of. Among them all, I was really taken by the truth of Holly Collison's:
When some of them die
The propaganda will be
They chose martyrdom.
Though Andrew's was great:
Free Minnesota!
Says Trump even though the Land
Of Lakes is free.
As was JR's:
This one is easy.
Those crazy ass idiots
Are $%@ing morons.
TRW Joe had a few variations, which is kinda genius:
Let them see themselves.
What is happening to them?
Need to meditate.......
[#2 version, replace 'see', 'them' & 'meditate' with 'ask', 'me', 'medicate']
Meanwhile, Steve asked for (and received) permission to throw in a limerick, and came up with several, including these winners (I love the word "alona"):
The siege of virus corona
Is leaving us feeling alona,
Keep your distance, however,
Whatever the weather,
Or you’ll be on your own in a coma.
This act of titanic stupidity
Will only increase our morbidity,
While Lewis does blather
And causes a lather,
It’s a dangerous act of quiddity.
When some of them die
The propaganda will be
They chose martyrdom.
