No. CXLV: The "Saved" (afterlife forecast)

we found heaven boring
until see-through flooring
paved the way for us saved to dwell
on the well-deserved fate
of those we hate
who we watch all day roasting in hell

No. CXLIV: is their intelligent life on earth?

I know what you're thinking
and without doubt
we've done...stuff...
NOT what I'm talkin' about
stone tools cave painting
are maybe good
but don't really improve
the neighborhood
we always insist
on getting top billing
we never do anything
not about killing
is there intelligent life on earth
I personally doubt it
for what it's worth

No. CXLIII: Equal GOPportunity

if things as they are benefit me
at your expense
that is how things should be

changes that might be of profit to you
at my expense
are strictly taboo

I want only that things be fair
by which I mean
HANDS OFF MY SHARE

what's mine is mine
what I have I've earned
your "disadvantages" — NOT my concern

I live and believe in the land of the free
I oppose anything
that won't profit me

since I benefit from status quo
if you suggest change
I'll always say no

how do I view life as a whole
I win you lose
I earned you stole

let me explain with clarity
you exist only
due to my charity

my ancestors won I am their heir
yours lost you suffer
and I really don't  care

No. CXLII: The Art Of Surreal (Donald's Head: outside hairy, inside scary)

Robert E. Lee a traitor? 
Is that a barrier
to putting his name on 
my next aircraft carrier.
If they say I'm cahootin',
next ship in this class 
U.S.S. Tsar Vladimir Putin.

Gotcha! 
Just kidding. 
But it's within my power, 
to rebrand a carrier as a Trump Tower.
And, BELIEVE ME, I know what sells,
welcome to TRUMP DELUXE FLOATING HOTELS.

No. CXLI: Making Ends Mete

Alt-right Trump followers,
hate-loving wallowers
(way today GOP goes),
leave McConnell and Ryan
desperately tryin'
to carry on holding their nose.

Has breach of the peace meant
impending impeachment?
Really too early to tell.
Sensing an ending,
way things are trending,
they sure as hell ain't ending well.
