Grumpy Limerick

September 16th, 2026

Though I try not to act like a grump
And I certainly don’t mean to dump
On the people who swear
“Karma’s real,” I must air
This rough dare: Please explain Donald Trump.

Why Write About Trump? (Limerick)

September 8th, 2026

Am I targeting Trump with my verse?
That vile man whose behavior gets worse
With each day that goes by?
Yes I am, and here’s why:
Donald’s reign is a scourge and a curse!

Trump’s DC Blight (Limerick)

September 7th, 2026

Donald Trump’s cast a blight on DC,
Ruining landmarks with wrecking-ball glee.
He has sullied this place
With fake gold and his face.
Has he done this for Putin? Or Xi?

Fretting About Fetterman (Limerick)

September 6th, 2026

WSJ: “Behind Closed Doors, John Fetterman Shows Little Interest in the Work of a Senator”

Former staffers report that John Fetterman
Isn’t one of our DC go-getter men:
He’s lost int’rest in doing
His job. (Cue the booing.)
I’m stewing! The Dems need much better men!

Mission NOT Accomplished (Limerick)

September 5th, 2026

Trump’s Iran War of Choice has been stressful
And expensive and wasteful and mess-ful.
It’s a plan-free production
Of senseless destruction
And death. What it’s NOT is “successful!”

A Coin I Won’t Be Treasuring (Limerick)

September 2nd, 2026

“US Mint officially launches $1 coin featuring Trump”

Donald’s ego needs stroking incessant,
Like the “Trump dollar coins” from Scott Bessent:
Coins by Trump’s face debased,
As he keeps laying waste
To our land. What a vile adolescent!

Trump’s Midterms “Strategy” (Limerick)

August 29th, 2026

NYMag Headline: “Trump’s Midterms Plan: Drop $400 Million on Self-Promotion”

Our economy’s deep in a slump,
And the White House now looks like a dump . . .
So Trump’s RIGHT: I agree
That the midterms must be
About President Donald J. Trump.

My Open Limerick To Canada

August 27th, 2026

My Dear Canada: Trump has abused you,
And misused you, and falsely accused you.
On behalf of the sane
U.S. folks who remain,
I am sorry . . . and hope I’ve amused you!

Bracing For The Midterms

August 22nd, 2026

When you think about Donald, don’t quail,
Or lose hope or freak out and/or wail.
Though he’s hard to endure,
Please resist! Help secure
A huge GOP midterm-vote fail!

Addicted To Rhyme? (Limerick)

August 19th, 2026

It appears I’m addicted to rhyme.
I write limericks all of the time.
Some are light. Some are deep.
Some I write in my sleep.
Some mock Trump, which (thus far) ain’t a crime.

Our Loathsome “Leader” (Limerick)

August 18th, 2026

Donald Trump is both selfish and callous.
He starts wars based on whim, greed, and malice.
He’s a coarse, lazy ass,
Whose main goal’s to amass
Power, wealth, and a crass gilded palace.

Trump’s Evil Regime (Limerick)

August 11th, 2026

Our great nation’s been suff’ring upheaval;
A wrecked victim of Donald Trump’s evil.
Has democracy shed
So much blood that it’s dead?
Please convince me it’s NOT past retrieval!

Stressful Limerick

August 7th, 2026

Do you feel like you aren’t successful?
Do your days seem increasingly stressful?
Is the world too chaotic
Cuz Donald’s despotic?
Here’s my fix! (No, I jest; Life’s too mess-ful!)

A Trump Rarity (Limerick)

July 30th, 2026

Agreeing with Trump about anything feels extremely weird: “Trump urges Senate to pass legislation ending clock changes”

Whatever Trump says, I’m not buying,
Cuz Donald is constantly lying.
Yet I have to agree
When he launches a spree
Of his “twice-yearly clock-change” decrying.

The State Of Our Nation (Limerick)

July 14th, 2026

The fine rep of our nation’s been smashed.
Our economy’s ransacked and trashed.
Constitution’s ignored.
Trump starts wars; then gets bored.
Yet that boor plunders on, unabashed.

Who’s To Blame? (Limerick)

July 11th, 2026

Our great nation is falling apart!
What’s the crux of it? Where do I start?
I blame Donald, of course,
But the villainous source
Is embracing a man with no heart.

Lesson (FINALLY) Learned???

July 9th, 2026

We need candidates worthy of trust,
So political vetting’s a must!
If that job is done badly,
The upshot is, sadly . . .
Yet another election year bust.

Trump v. Greenland (Limerick)

July 8th, 2026

Headline: “Trump reopens Greenland fight as NATO summit kicks off”

Donald Trump adores living in Mean-Land
And his other fav place, Vent-His-Spleen-Land,
Where he bitches and frets
And revisits his threats,
Like the one where he takes over Greenland.

“Pump & Dump” Trump (Limerick)

July 6th, 2026

Paul Krugman inspired my limerick:

Conman “Pump & Dump” President Trump
Loves exploiting each gullible chump:
Crypto schemes raze the clams
Of those duped by his scams . . .
As Trump’s grift-wealth continues to jump.

Babies Named Donald? (Limerick)

July 5th, 2026

My limerick was inspired by this article:

Give your newborn the name of a villain?
It’s done rarely! Most folks are unwillin’.
But it’s fun, all the same,
To note few people name
Their kids “Donald.” They much prefer “Dylan.”
