Trump Gives Thanks (Limerick)

Monday, November 26th, 2018

Headline: “Trump says he’s thankful for making a ‘tremendous difference in this country'”

Even people whose life seems to suck
Act grateful today. Some thank luck.
Some thank friends, fam’ly, God.
But a narcissist — odd —
Like Prez Trump thanks himself. What a schmuck!

*****

Alternate, Non-Thanksgiving Holiday Version:

Even people whose life seems to suck
Express gratitude. Some thank their luck.
Some thank friends, fam’ly, God.
But a narcissist — odd —
Like Prez Trump thanks himself. What a schmuck!

Thanksgiving Limerick For DC Pols

Tuesday, November 20th, 2012

Serious fiscal negotiations are (or at least should be) going on right now in Washington DC. And whether you think we’re facing a “fiscal cliff,” or more of a “fiscal incline,” here’s a Thanksgiving message to Washington politicians: Please talk turkey and work something out that makes sense for our nation.

Thanksgiving Limerick For DC Pols
By Madeleine Begun Kane

It’s time for some serious talk.
Please don’t bitch or complain, and don’t balk.
Our issues are great—
Act before it’s too late.
So kindly talk turkey. Don’t squawk.

A Turkey Of A Term (Limerick)

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2011

Just in time for Thanksgiving, here’s one turkey of a term:

A Turkey Of A Term (Limerick)
By Madeleine Begun Kane

The term of the day has no charm,
And for some it can cause some alarm.
It’s a spot in the gov
Filled with patronage love.
Have you guessed what I mean? “Turkey Farm.”

Note: According to Taegan Goddard’s Political Dictionary, a “Turkey Farm” is a “government agency or department staffed primarily with political appointments and other patronage hires.”
