Limerick, because I couldn’t help myself

Limerick

There once only once was a Trump
Who combed his hair over a lump
We don’t mind his hair
But what’s under there
A thought that the world is a chump

(he’s supposed to host a fund-raiser
in Pennsylvania today, and so
I couldn’t help myself)

I prefer Christopher in conversation. In writing, I use C L Couch because it’s a genderless form of my name and, frankly, easier—I have severe writer’s cramp. I mean to be a poet writing spiritual and occasional verse. The photographs used permanently here—for the banner, for my profile—were taken by Debra Danielson, a photographer and friend. You may enjoy more of her work at debra.danielson.org. If you would credit me when quoting my work, I'd be thankful. As I am thankful for your presence here.

    we can only hope. What scares me is the number of supporters he has…I’ve met those people and as Pogo used to say “we have met the enemy and he is US.”

  Thanks. I know we don’t always elect the brightest and the best. But, come on.

    Haha. It was a good Limerick. I think politics in America (sometimes Canada too) seems to be a learning curve. For instance, you elect George Bush Jr. And then elect Obama. Obama was a good choice, and George not so much. But it is one of the most difficult jobs in the world.

I do mind his hair, it’s animal cruelty! As for what’s under his “hair” well..I mind that too. Very witty and clever, kudos to you!

  Thanks. I hadn’t been thinking at the time about my stand on animal cruelty. Which, of course, I’m totally against. You’re right–another thing to mind.
