#100Days100Poems Day 58 #TantrumTanka

Fear not! The poem might not have appeared on time, but you just imagine how great a double dose will feel! #SmallHandsPoetry

 

The Joy of Having an Attentive Microwave

The thing about wild
accusations is that you
don’t have to have proof.
All you need’s a twit, a tweet,
and some loyal Gullibles.

#100Days100Poems Day 57 #TantrumTanka

This could very well count as #SmallHandsPoetry, too, but #TantrumTanka really nails it. And this one is indeed titled.

 

When You Bamboozle Your Way Into Elected Office And All Your Friends Are Really Really Rich

I don’t wanna pay
for meals. I don’t wanna pay
For arts. Or science.
I just wanna pay for war
& tax cuts. War & tax cuts.

#100Days100Poems Day 55 #PhotoHaiku

What’s better than street art? Street art that’s been edited (and re-edited) to make it even more relevant! We’ve got many days to go, not just for #100Days100Poems, but for America(ns) Held Hostage! We must stick together; we must stick to our convictions; we must stick to what’s right and what’s just.

Today’s #PhotoHaiku incorporates a photo from Catherine Harren Barufaldi of Brooklyn, NY.

My recent trip to Philly continues to give us some very fruitful #PhotoHaiku. The City of Brotherly Love can teach us a lot.

We must always keep our eyes on the prize in this struggle. Until we can sing ‘Ding, dong, the cheeto’s dead.’

#100Days100Poems Day 51 #PhotoHaiku

In these dark times, America(ns) held hostage by their pseudo-Russki overlords, it’s important to buy from businesses that align with our values, like this lingerie shop in Philly. #PhotoHaiku

#100Days100Poems Day 49 #TantrumTanka

Some days I can’t keep up with the stupid coming out of this mis-administration. Or better yet, there’s so much fodder for protest, I often find my mind racing in a million different directions, too overwhelmed by the inanity to focus.

 

So you wanna spend
more money on wars, like, say
54 billion?
It’s a pity you’ve always
dodged ’em, never fought in one.

#100Days100Poems Day 43 #TantrumTanka

Sometimes I think it’s more fun to write a #TantrumTanka than it is to find one among the inanities popular in the discourse of our so-called trumpet-in-chief.
