It Would Be Fun

To think

We are all undergoing

A sense of humor test

And God

In this case

The Word Laughter

Is testing us, both

Individually and collectively

To realize

We are supposed to be filled

With (God) aka Laughter

That our surroundings

Practically demand it

Pssst. Look around

If you look

It is funny

Laughter (God)

Is throwing everything at us

To laugh at

Unfortunately we

The royal We

Are not laughing

So that, when and not if

We die and are still not laughing

We have to come back again

To pass the test

Going on to the next tests

Love and truth

“You have to find the funny in things, Our culture right now is on the brink of so many things, and one of those things is losing our sense of humor. We can laugh — it doesn’t mean we’re irreverent or don’t care.

We just need to laugh.”

– Tammy Pescatelli

Maybe I need
Different glasses.”

Where this should have stopped

Nope….



The bonus buffoon

We are supposed to all be

Laughing at and with is

None other than 45

Also known as

Society’s “straight” man

Individual one

Four times indicted

Social spectacle

Narcissistic nincompoop

(Ha! Made you say…..poop)

The funny thing is

His most fanatical followers

Are not laughing

Which means

The show will go on

Till we are all either

Guffawing

Chortling

Giggling

Smirking

Side splitting

Busting a gut

At the ridiculousness

Of the constant contradictions

Especially when 45 says

He is telling the truth*

Bwahahaha

Help, I can’t stop

(Arms smacking table, head bobbing uncontrollably)

Quick, take a commercial break…..please!!

When The Washington Post Fact Checker team first started cataloguing President Donald Trump’s false or misleading claims, we recorded 492 suspect claims in the first 100 days of his presidency. On Nov. 2 alone, the day before the 2020 vote, Trump made 503 false or misleading claims as he barnstormed across the country in a desperate effort to win reelection.

This astonishing jump in falsehoods is the story of Trump’s tumultuous reign. By the end of his term, Trump had accumulated 30,573 untruths during his presidency — averaging about 21 erroneous claims a day.

What is especially striking is how the tsunami of untruths kept rising the longer he served as president and became increasingly unmoored from the truth.

Trump averaged about six claims a day in his first year as president, 16 claims day in his second year, 22 claims day in this third year — and 39 claims a day in his final year. Put another way, it took him 27 months to reach 10,000 claims and an additional 14 months to reach 20,000. He then exceeded the 30,000 mark less than five months later.

Instead of the focused distraction society is satiated with, a simple questionable characterization would put this to rest. If it was presented that 44 had done and was doing the same, would he have received or be receiving the same treatment?

My guess is….not.

But at least we could recognize we lost our sense of humor.
