Uncle Peeper

I wish I worried more about
The feds‘ observing whom I’ve called
And who’s called me in case they doubt
My loyalty and thus forestalled
Dark hopes of zapping Washington
To aid Iran or just for fun.

By George

No longer must one go to school
To shoot and kill and then succumb.
Like Zimmerman, why play the fool?
Make Trayvon-Martin types look dumb:
The sort who in the dark pursued
Are going to stand their ground and feud

Patience Please

What else is it besides a coup,
Which we decline to recognize?
And doing so appear untrue
To liberty in others’ eyes.
Elected to a four-year term
Last year as Egypt’s president,
Mohamed Morsi, let’s affirm,
Though somewhat less than heaven sent,
Unless in what one sees but good,
His diehard Muslim Brotherhood.
