Dear Donald, it’s Sunday today.
How was church? Did you mask-lessly pray?
Oh that’s right — church is just
A photo-op must.
“We want GOD!”? A fake-pious display.

Pious Donald (Limerick)
Sunday, August 30th, 2020Another Promise Unkept (Limerick)
Friday, August 28th, 2020Trump way back in 2016: “I am the law and order candidate.”
“Law and Order’s” a Trump campaign vow,
But the promise that Trump’s making now
Is a ’16 repeat
That he broke. So unseat
Donald Trump and let Joe take a bow.
Pandemic? WHAT Pandemic? (Limerick)
Friday, August 28th, 2020Headline: “Trump Pretends Pandemic Is Over”
Donald Trump and his cronies pretend
That COVID has come to an end.
But magical thinking
Solves nothing: No shrinking
Of death counts — infections ascend.
Trump-Logic (Limerick)
Friday, August 28th, 2020Blaming Biden for civil unrest
Falls afoul of ye old straight-face test.
Cuz the last time I checked
Trump was prez, and he’s wrecked
Our great nation. (So much for “Be Best.”)
Limerick Ode To The Liar-In-Chief
Tuesday, August 25th, 2020“Dems will steal the election,” says Trump —
A small part of his regular dump
Of bald fabrications
In Donald’s orations;
Our Liar-In-Chief on the stump.
The Trump Cult (Limerick)
Monday, August 24th, 2020“In lieu of a party platform, Republicans express ‘strong support’ of Trump.”
The GOP seems to exult
In becoming the Donald Trump Cult.
No platform this year —
Just a Donald Trump cheer;
Lots of toadies, but not one adult!
“Pious” Trump (Limerick)
Sunday, August 23rd, 2020Trump Tweet: “Happy Sunday! We want GOD!”
“Happy Sunday!” tweets Trump. “We want GOD!”
As a “GOD”-lover, Trump is a fraud.
Not an ounce of remorse!
And he’s golfing, of course.
(Hoping “GOD” will appear and applaud?)
If Susan B. Anthony Could Write Limericks
Tuesday, August 18th, 2020“President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed a pardon for women’s suffrage icon Susan B. Anthony, who was arrested in 1872 for casting a ballot when women could not vote.”
Dear Donald, your pardon’s rejected;
I despise pardonees you’ve protected!
Stop pretending to care
About gals, and don’t dare
Use my pardon to get reelected.
The Perennially “Concerned” Sen. Collins (Limerick)
Saturday, August 15th, 2020Headline: “Susan Collins Expresses ‘Concerns’ Over Delays In Mail Delivery”
Susan Collins — “concerned” once again;
She clucks like a malcontent hen,
As if truly upset
By misdeeds or a threat…
But follow-through votes? Not that Sen!
Trump’s Executive “Order” Scam (Limerick)
Monday, August 10th, 2020Washington Post Headline: “Here’s what is actually in Trump’s four executive orders
The details on payroll taxes, unemployment and evictions are not as generous as he made them sound.”
Dear Donald, how sneakily clever!
Will your “orders” help voters? No never!
But your base who’s unschooled
In the law may be fooled
By your “efforts” while pulling that lever.
