it’s backwards you know
referencing days past as old
as if days could age

Futility’s Rush ~ Tanka Tuesday

Futility’s Rush

we are persuaded
there exist paragons
to aspire to
but excellence, perfection
dwell in degrees, beyond reach

Headlines – Terza Rima 2c

jesters entertaining kleptocracy

while the kangaroo court is in session

oligarchs cash in on democracy

Behind the headlines…the cesspool thickens here in the US, Supreme Court nominee sure to set us backwards 200 years…and one who believes a president should not be prosecuted. I can see why his bio rose to the top. It appears the UK has their own Brexit issues, resignations, infighting. On an ongoing issue, Trumpsters are trying to spin the lie that the parents separated from their babies are rejecting their own kids saying they don’t want to be reunited with them. It’s a lie. The truth is they (trump and his ilk) have no records to link these families and can’t find half of them. Blame the victims…so evil. On a positive note, all of the Thai soccer players and coach have been rescued. Ending on good news as Trump heads to NATO… my condolences to the world.

Thanks again Jane for this Daily Poetry Challenge.


Magnetic Poetry Monday

cold-snapped earth at dawn
air, flowery fresh, sun bright
come walk with me along
the wild path where roses bloom

Headlines – Terza Rima 2b

angry throngs at eateries, pols surround
aghast, the marked elite demand civility
long dead at their own hand, the burned stand ground

The story behind today’s headline…Poor Trumpsters are being confronted at restaurants these days. They are crying for civility and to be allowed to nosh in peace. But there is no rest for the weary who they’ve lied to and who they disdain while storing up riches for themselves. I say game on. Let them eat …wait…cake is too good for them. To these cowards who took advantage of the angry masses to get elected into power…let us show you angry…up close. Civility is dead, but remember you killed it.

Thanks Jane Dougherty for prompting us to write every day. It is soooo therapeutic. Keeps my head from exploding!!! 🤣😳🤣
