Replacing the jokers in charge.

American Pie

The settlers of Jamestown, it’s said/
Were not being properly fed./
So as they got skinnier/
Folks in Virginia/
Started consuming their dead.

Black Eyes to the Right

There were some MPs in Caracas/
Who got in a terrible fracas/
As those who oppose/
Maduro swapped blows/
With some of the president’s backers.

Himalayan Hitters

Two climbers got into a brawl
With Sherpas from rocky Nepal,
Up high on Mount Everest –
Hardly the cleverest
Venue, as someone could fall.

Martial Farts

A pro at taekwondo instruction
Accused of illegal production
Of ricin from beans
Created the means
For martial farts of mass destruction.

Max Charge

There is an old fellow named Max
Who’s charged over sexual attacks
He says it’s all lies
But if he were wise
PR help is what Clifford lacks.

Too Hot for the Desert

There was a young man from Dubai,
A quite irresistible guy,
Deported from Saudi
For not being dowdy,
So women can’t give him the eye.

What’s in a Domain Name?

An internet firm from Seattle
Is fighting an Amazon battle
Forget the big river
The folks who deliver
Deserve the domain name, they prattle.

Hack Attack

There once were some Syrian hackers
Fanatical government backers
Whose tweet on Obama
Provoked market drama
And booted AP in the knackers.
