Out on his Assange

Posted on April 11, 2019 by twitmericks

There was an old man with a beard/

Who said it is just as I feared,/

My embassy haven/

When young and clean-shaven/

Has gone, and the cops have appeared.///

Looking into the abyss

Posted on April 11, 2019 by twitmericks

Was reached, as what looked like a coal/

Encircled by flames/

Gave substance to claims/

That Einstein was right, on the hole.///

Who felt something borne on the breeze/

Was making her cry,/

Docs found in her eye/

Four minuscule sweat-eating bees.///

Through drug smugglers’ arses*/

Most tokers smoke actual shit./

When liquid poured in from a leak,/

Which leaves the impression/

They’re ending this session/

In literal terms, up shit creek.///
