Murcan Problems

Godless patricians wring their hands
In their suburban country manors.
Guilty America changes brands,
plays with pronouns. Rainbow banners
Prideful, float on summer breezes.
Faith grows cold, congeals, and freezes.

Clueless worldlings cluck and scold;
Display their plumage, signal virtue.
Preening fowl are waxing bold.
(Could such flightless creatures hurt you?–
Force you to conform, bow down
before their god—a circus clown?)

Here’s to data-driven tyrants
Professional managerial trash;
Narcissism’s dull aspirants
Human resources: their cash.
Shilling out for sex-confusion,
Corporate wokeness, and delusion.

 

Pyrotechnics

Your call is very important to us.
Please stay on the line and someone will be with you shortly . . .

Geriatric genderqueer nation looks to the night skies in expectation. Mass dementia: they hallucinate fireworks. The chariots are parked while the saucers land. Extraterrestrial explosions in diverse undocumented colors: ashes shower clueless crowds. Illegal aliens laugh out loud, floating across the southern border as the gringos swell with pride. Enemies of obese America bide their time. The long fake movie-kiss has almost ended and the fuses have fizzled out; Chinese fireworks are now a Chinese Firedrill turned firewall. God waits for US to awaken from our explosive stupor.

Please listen carefully as our options have changed . . .
