Race to the bottom

Posted on July 15, 2019 by twitmericks

Trump’s Twitter account just disgraces ‘im,/

All far-right ideas, he embraces ’em -/

To start down the track:/

‘They’re black, send ’em back’/

Is out-and-out undisguised racism.///

Final fizz

Posted on July 14, 2019 by twitmericks

The final left England in clover,/

The dream for New Zealand all over,/

But both gave their all/

Until the last ball/

Of cricket’s champagne superover.///

First Serb

A fellow named Novak from Serbia/

Played tennis in London’s suburbia/

And though Roger Federer/

Just kept getting betterer/

Old Djoko was even superb-ier.///

Hardened criminal sought

Posted on July 11, 2019 by twitmericks

A face-tattooed mulleted scuzz/

Is wanted for theft by the fuzz/

Who say that he took/

Vibrators, the crook!/

Perhaps it was just for the buzz.///

Ambo in limbo

Posted on July 10, 2019 by twitmericks

A diplomat fellow named Kim/

Said POTUS’s White House was grim;/

When Trump got the hump/

And Johnson kissed rump/

It all ended badly for him.///

Yodel air hoo-ha

Posted on July 10, 2019 by twitmericks

The Swiss Patrol’s aerial show/

Got townspeople up to high doh/

By drowning their song -/

A terrible wrong/

To lay low a yodeller so.///

The wrong Kim

Posted on July 9, 2019 by twitmericks

A thin-skinned old fellow named Trump/

Got into a bit of a grump/

As Britain’s ambassador/

Could not have been acider/

About the incompetent chump.///

Night Watch

Posted on July 9, 2019 by twitmericks

Spectators desiring to spy/

On art restoration must try/

This Rembrandt live stream,/

Fulfilling their dream/

Of literally watching paint dry.///

USWNT 2 POTUS 0

Posted on July 7, 2019 by twitmericks

The USA’s sureness of touch/

In winning out over the Dutch/

Secured for their nation/

The world’s admiration./

The President’s style, not so much.///

Statue of imitation

Posted on July 6, 2019 by twitmericks

An artist who sawed the odd lump/

From some old Slovenian stump/

And painted it blue/

Said “Can you guess who?/

That’s right, it’s Melania Trump!”///
