Verses from stories by Johnny Diaz, Michelle Yee Hee Lee, Mike DeBonis, Anu Narayanswamy, and Thomas Heath.



TOILET TRAUMA
@johnnydiaz__

The President is worried
that we're flushing way too much;
he says that water's running
like someone let out the clutch.
Of course he also said that rain
comes down from little clouds,
and there might be too much of it --
which could explain the crowds
that often walk around in storms
just drinking Adam's ale;
they want to get a head start
before all the spigots fail.

REPUBLICANS SPEND FORTUNE FOR ADS
ACCUSING DEMOCRATS OF TREASON

@myhlee  @mikedebonis  @anu_narayan

Republicans are spending big
to label Democrats
as wolfs in sheepish clothing
and just all around bad hats.
Millions from their coffers
go for TV ads that show
Democratic senators
are fishier than roe.
I didn't know the Democrats
were too broke to reply;
I guess they're spending money
on a simple hemp necktie.

*****************************
YOUR PUPPY NEEDS A PILL
@addedvalueth

Pet supplements are all the rage
in this doggy/catty age.
Ev'ryone has got a pet,
and cannot afford a vet.
So they give 'em little pills
for their aches and pains and ills.
Do they work or are they spoof --
will they help your dog go 'woof?'
After taking careful stock,
I think it is mostly schlock.
(And I'm keeping my pet rock.)
