๐‡๐ข๐ญ  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž  ๐ซ๐จ๐š๐  ๐‰๐š๐œ!

Sheโ€™s fallen โ€” farewell Kiwi sister.

Goodbye, have her faithful fans kissed her.

Sheโ€™d bit off far more

Than her impressive jaw

Could chew โ€” so adieu communista.

โ€” D.N. Oโ€™Brien

๐ˆ๐ง  ๐ญ๐ก๐ž  ๐€๐ซ๐ฆ๐ฒ!

You know what Iโ€™ve been thinking?

That soldiersโ€™ balls are shrinking.

For in the ranks

Theyโ€™re firing blanks,

And at each other winking.

โ€” D.N. Oโ€™Brien

Keep us in strict isolation,

And block skeptical information.

Close our borders โ€” lock tight!

But donโ€™t turn out the light!

For we are the terrified nation.

ะกั‚ะพะปั‹ะฟะธะฝ

 Lenin answered a question โ€” he said:

โ€œHad he lived would have Russia turned red?

Well I doubt it comrade โ€”

 No, had Stolypin stayed

 Heโ€™d have foiled us, so we shot him dead.โ€

Imagine if Trump slurred his words.

Was quite clearly off with the birds.

Theyโ€™d close for the kill.

But Joe, poor old dill,

They hide his dementia  โ€” the turds.

โ€” D.N. Oโ€™Brien

One neednโ€™t have skill or be wise,

To take out the coveted prize;

But postmodern mates

And inherent traits

Admired by the judgemental eyes.

ะฅะปะตะฑ ะธ ั†ะธั€ะบะธ

Before they could tend to the rot,

The nobles were gulaged or shot.

And all things that were good,

And the crosses of wood โ€”

Bread and circuses replaced the lot.

Lies, limerick, poem, poetry

Dead End

The carcass, corruption it leaks,

Yet rises it up, and it speaks:

โ€œBy The Lie we were led

To this land of the dead,

So be warned of the havoc it wreaks.โ€

โ€” D.N. Oโ€™Brien

Broad Tents (and Churches)

Within a broad tent you reside,

But what if the tent is too wide?

What if some tent dwellers

Arenโ€™t trustworthy fellas โ€”

What If youโ€™re not on the same side?

โ€” D.N. Oโ€™Brien

Their rockets rain down on Israel,

As Biden, their hero, they hail.

All gains blown to bits

By Democrat shits โ€”

The Donaldโ€™s peace train they derail.

โ€” D.N. Oโ€™Brien
