Like Greeks

limerick, poem, poetry, Queensland State election

Queensland State government (conservative) defeated by socialists.

Their policies hardly austere,
Yet they got a kick in the rear.
They paid back the banks
But received little thanks;
The people want barbies and beer.

limerick, poem, poetry

A shark that swam in with the tide
Has bitten a woman – she died,
But now some bright sparks
Say that they love the sharks;
Me too – lightly battered then fried.

limerick, poem, poetry

Begone with these rumours so seamy.
She’s beautiful, charming and dreamy.
Soft mists swirl around her
And fog banks surround her –
Our Gwyneth, so sultry and steamy.

limerick, poem, poetry

In the farmyard, the chickens and ducks,
They protest with their quacking and clucks:
“Take the eggs from the geese
That our wealth may increase!”
Say the geese: “Laying golden eggs sucks.”

limerick, poem, poetry

Abdullah, the old Saudi King,
With his virgins is having a fling.
Yes Abdullah is dead
And those who shared his bed
(Western leaders) his praises now sing.

For these groveling weak hypocrites,
They are frightened quite out of their wits,
So they threw in their lot
With the Saudi despot
And his flunkies (a right bunch of shits)

Yes our leaders, respect they will pay,
For appeasement is now the wise way.
It’s a story quite sad
And the ending is bad;
It gets closer with each passing day.

In Denial

limerick, poem, poetry

If your strategy is to appease
They will weaken your state by degrees.
They will strangle your voice
But will give you a choice:
To choose death, or submit on you knees.

A Capital Reply

Capital Punishment, limerick, poem, poetry

A woman he killed with a knife,
But why should he pay with his life?
I’d not want revenge;
To her murder avenge.
So you say – but she wasn’t your wife.

American Sniper, Clint Eastwood, limerick, poem, poetry, Selma

Despite the left media spin,
Poor Selma ain’t packin’ ‘em in.
The fans they are rootin’
For sniper’s straight shootin’;
An Oscar it’s certain to win.

(Although I wouldn’t bet on it)

No they don’t like American Sniper.
They say Clint’s a conservative viper.
Down in old tinsel town
Most are wearing a frown;
At the box-office fans have gone hyper.

Imagine the left liberal pain.
Clint Eastwood has done it again.
That bloody right winger
Has made a humdinger;
It’s driving those lefties insane.

limerick, National hug day, poem, poetry

While Barack is hugging Michelle
The whole world is going to Hell.
But it’s not worth facing
So they’ll keep embracing,
Ignoring that sulphuric smell.

American Sniper, limerick, poem, poetry

Oh please Mister Moore, shut your face.
You really are quite a disgrace.
Are you still in diapers?
Your words aimed at snipers
Confirm you are such a sad case.
