Milton Slams Into Florida And Destroys Margo Largo – Washes It Out To Sea
With all the lies
About FEMA
And hurricane relief
Spreading after the storms
And his downplaying the storm
Claiming again
Climate change is a hoax
Vowing to enact
A national don’t call it climate change
And pull out of all climate change
International agreement
And vowing to cut back
Federal spending on weather forecasting
And hurricane relief funding
Leaving it up to the states
It appears that MargoLlargo
Could be hit hard by MargoLlargo
It would be poetic justice
If Margo Largo is swept
out to sea.
God if you are listening
Make it happen
Send Trump some device justice
Smite him where it hurts.
Trump Be A Crazy Old Man -(Semi-Found Poem)
Quote the Ddonald:
The new thing is hydrogen.
They have hydrogen cars.
They have one problem.
Occasionally, it blows up.
And when it blows up,
You are not recognizable.
Comment: wtf is on about? Is this part
Of his infamous weaving
Of disjointed comments
Into a word salad
Only he understands. End comment
Comment: and this naturally leads to
.”.crooked Joe Biden became mentally impaired,
but lying’ Kamala Harris,
I really believe,
I believe
She was born this way.
there’ something
Wrong with her,
And you know what?
Every…body…knows…it.
Comment: the only person who knows this
Is the stable genius trump end comment
Nobody Knows You When You Are Down And Out
Nobody knows you
When you are down and out
Friends, you have none
When you are down and out.
When you are homeless
No one knows your name
Or even cares
When you are down and out.
You are invisible
A broken-down soul
Living on the mean streets.
Waiting for the Grim Reaper
To take you away
When you are down and out
Stairway to Heaven Bumper Sticker Found Poem

The fact that
there is a stairway to Heaven
and an highway to Hell
Tells you a lot
About the expected traffic.
Stairway to Heaven
Song by
Led Zeppelin
Led Zeppelin – Stairway To Heaven (Live at Earls Court 1975): Watch here
Heart – Stairway to Heaven (Live at Kennedy Center Honors): Watch here
There’s a lady who’s sure, all that glitters is gold
And she’s buying a stairway to heaven
When she gets there she knows
If the stores are all closed
With a word, she can get what she came for
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
And she’s buying a stairway to heaven
There’s a sign on the wall, but she wants to be sure
‘Cause you know, sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook, there’s a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it makes me wonder
There’s a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts, I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking
Ooh, it makes me wonder
Ooh, it really makes me wonder
And it’s whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forests will echo with laughter
Whoa-whoa-whoa, oh-oh
If there’s a bustle in your hedgerow, don’t be alarmed now
It’s just a spring clean for the May Queen
Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run
And there’s still time to change the road you’re on
And it makes me wonder
Oh, whoa-oh
Your head is humming and it won’t go
In case you don’t know
The piper’s calling you to join him
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow?
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind?
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all, yeah
To be a rock and not to roll
And she’s buying a stairway to heaven
Highway to Hell

AC/DC

AC/DC – Highway to Hell (Live – from Countdown, 1979): Watch here
Livin’ easy, lovin’ free
Season ticket on a one-way ride
Askin’ nothin’, leave me be
Takin’ everything in my stride
Don’t need reason, don’t need rhyme
Ain’t nothin’ I’d rather do
Goin’ down, party time
My friends are gonna be there too, yeah
I’m on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I’m on the highway to hell
No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody’s gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody’s gonna mess me around
Hey Satan, payin’ my dues
Playin’ in a rocking band
Hey momma, look at me
I’m on my way to the promised land, wow
I’m on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
I’m on the highway to hell
Highway to hell
Mm, don’t stop me
Eh-woo
I’m on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
I’m on the highway to hell
On the highway to hell
Highway to hell (I’m on the highway to hell)
Highway to hell (highway to hell)
Highway to hell (I’m on the highway to hell)
Highway to hell
And I’m goin’ down
All the way, wow
On the highway to hell
