Take a callous compulsion to bend
Pesky laws, plus a greed without end.
Add great ignorance, malice,
And lust for a palace.
Voilà! “The Rapacious Trump Blend!”

Trump in a NUTshell (Limerick)
Monday, March 31st, 2025Woke Quatrain
Monday, March 31st, 2025To the Trump-loving creep:
“Call me woke. I won’t weep.
You ain’t clever or deep.
Now just go back to sleep!”
Car-Buying Blues (Limerick)
Thursday, March 27th, 2025Headline: “Trump Announces 25% Tariffs on Imported Cars Effective April 2” (NOTE: This includes American brands assembled abroad.)
Do you need a new car? Then don’t wait!
Buy it now! Beat that Trump-tariff date.
For despite Donald’s scorn,
Fine economists warn:
Car-price surges will soon be our fate.
Yet Another Trump Limerick
Tuesday, March 25th, 2025Rhyming “serious” has made me rather delirious:
Trump’s behavior is worse than imperious!
(Yes, this lim’rick ain’t funny; it’s serious.)
That vile felon’s our bane,
For alas, Donald’s reign
Is much more than a bit deleterious.
The Mad Tariffer (Limerick)
Friday, March 14th, 2025My latest political limerick was largely inspired by this CNBC headline: “‘I’m not going to bend at all’: Trump doubles down on tariff plans as stocks sink”
(Not surprisingly, “Trump doubles down on…” is becoming an over-used, albeit exceedingly appropriate, headline phrase.)
Trump is doubling down on his madness,
Which increases my anger and sadness.
He’s insane and perverse
And keeps making things worse.
There’s no limit, alas, to his badness.
AWOL Wit? (Limerick)
Wednesday, March 12th, 2025When I’m writing, I struggle to squeeze in
Lots of humor and wit and to season
All my poems with wordplay;
Perhaps absurd nerd-play.
I’ve failed? Donald’s treason’s the reason!
Coping With The Oval Madman (Limerick)
Thursday, March 6th, 2025Though I try not to whine, moan, or mope,
I am finding it taxing to cope
With our nation’s ruination
And Donald’s castration
Of all who might lend us some hope.
An Open Limerick To Donald Trump
Wednesday, March 5th, 2025My dear Trump, it’s a shame you’re so boring;
Last night’s speech was the inverse of soaring!
Though your acts are unbound,
That dull, monotone sound
Sent a shit-load of viewers a-snoring.
Dearest Dems (Limerick)
Tuesday, March 4th, 2025Dearest Dems who attend Donald’s speech,
I had better not see your arms reach
Out to shake that man’s hand.
Such an act should be banned…
And don’t clap for that lawbreaking leech!
