We begin this week as we ended last week, with some Donald Trump NFT verse. To start, a haiku from M.C. in Newton, MA:
MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT
Ex-prez in NFT biz
Legal bills mounting
And something a bit lengthier, from N.C. in Gibsons, BC, Canada:
There once was a man called the "Man of Steal"
Who ranted and prattled in a wearying spiel
His claims all lacked evidence, bad lawyers and stuff
He never convinced a real Judge enough
To reverse his big loss that was based on a lie
When he cried "it was stolen, I was cheated, denied!"
To install him back on his gold plated throne
He recruited the misfits who were dumb and were prone
To believe what he said, though devoid of all fact
To attack our great Capitol, insurrection beat back
Now his life is all lawsuits, fleecing rubes of their loot
Selling NFT hero cards, their importance is moot
How far he has fallen, it's so hard to care
Fading off to irrelevance, or a jail cell somewhere?
And we'll close with a limerick from M.S. in Sterling, NY:
Trump's a huckster, a con and a fraud
Crappy steaks, schools and vodka did he laud
The NFTs make me cringe
It's bad taste on a binge
He'll be gone only when he's covered by sod.
More verse that dumps on Trump tomorrow? Who knows? Here is the place to send submissions. (Z)
