№ 632: Noing Our Place In Time And In Space

Whether we're astronauts shot into space
or eking out a simple subsistence,
what we don't know and when we don't know it
remains the bane of human existence.
Astronauts cannot exist on their own.
“Primitives” can — sometimes — thrive all alone.
This goes a long way toward explaining
our forebears foregoing astronaut training.

№ 631: Back To The Fourth (a tweet from tomorrow)

THE SWAMP (July 3)

I was BETRAYED!

That was NOT my parade.

That tiny, puny, little charade.

Not enough tanks. Not enough planes.

Where were the immigrant children in chains?

Not enough ANYTHING! A damned pooper scooper.

Where was Robert E. Lee? Where were my storm troopers

goose stepping while I smiled beatifically?

It had no style. It failed horrifically.
It was intended to celebrate ME! So I could gloat over Putin and Xi.

Now how can I put down my BFF, Kim?

Where were the missiles with which I threaten him?

To you Pentagon Dems behind this SAD plot:

when I find who you are, I'll have you shot.

This is NOT what I asked for. . .this strolling at leisure.

I called for a Triumph. Like Julius Cæsar!

NOT some dumb, casual come-as-you-are.

I wanted a spectacle fit for a Tsar.

A parade — must I say it explicitly? —

a parade reflecting the glory of ME.

A parade of parades breaking the mold

with my bew-t-ful Soldiers* plated in gold.
———————————————
*and Sailors, Airmen, Marines — SPACE FORCE CADETS! 
Plus a battalion or two of World War II vets.
Maybe Coast Guarders. Do they they go on land? 
After Hurricane Whatsis, I 💗 their brand.

№ 630: Natural Disaster

REALITY CHECK (July 2)

Mother Nature viewed in her totality

clearly has little time for morality.

Less than little. From day number one,

the lady's made clear that she has none.

Not one bloody second, not even a milli-,

in Nature morality’s existentially silly

and wasteful and makes zero sense.

How Nature rolls is expedience.

Expedience AND opportunity

for individuals or a species community.

As it is now, will be, was in beginning,
the only thing Nature cares for is winning.

№ 629: Movie Pitch

FANTASYLAND (July 1)

Here's this idea for a new Disney flick.

It’s got a princess. It can be made quick.

Her dad, the king, has always been nuts.

Two weak evil brothers — audience loves hating their guts.

Maybe a semi-legitimate sister

and baby hubby who dares not resist her.

Then something happens — you know, movie stuff —

and daddy’s deposed, but not quick enough

and evil “Uncle” — did I mention him? —

ascends the throne. Turns out he’s rotten.

Worse than her dad, worse than both brothers.

Seems like he’s had too few grandmothers.

Then more of the usual Hollywood stuff.

A perfect project for Hillary Duff!

It could be a musical. Like I said all along.

Hilly could write (at least) one of the songs.

Maybe it's a live-action cartoon:

Princess Ivanka! Go see it soon!

№ 628: Kim Jong Un, Superstar? (and an invitation)

Donald Trump invites Kim Jong-un to US after entering North Korea

NOT IN KANSAS, ANY MO (June 31)

Donald's #MAGAest hits?
