Mother Goose-Gas

Nikki Haley, big on talk
shook her UN tomahawk
War-path armchair quarterback,
she gave our world a gas-attack.

Repent for all the lies you’ve told;
the lap-dog narrative waxes old.
Your leash needs tightened. Down, girl. SIT.
You’re locked and loaded (full of shit).
Go beat your war-drum to the chief;
we offer you our unbelief
as tragic relief:

globalist stooge
Pentagon fake news
puppet of the Fake Jews
miss missile, Nimrata misinformed
missed the mark
Matriarch
in the dark

Hail Haley

write a poem that involves rebellion in some way. The speaker or subject of the poem could defy a rule or stricture that’s been placed on them, or the poem could begin by obeying a rule and then proceed to break it (for example, a poem that starts out in iambic pentameter, and then breaks into sprawling, unmetered lines).

 

 

 

 

April May Call the Tune

The coming month showers us with significance
for solidarity with worthy causes:

Alcohol Awareness Month, 

Autism Awareness Month,

Confederate History Month,

Jazz Appreciation Month,

National Child Abuse Prevention Month,

National Poetry Month,

Sexual Assault Awareness Month

In response to this the cruelest of lunar cycles,
I shall again participate 
in National Poetry Writing Month

(For a challenging writing prompt,
try stringing all these noble causes together in one single poem…)
