It’s time for Meet The Bar, and
we’re to write a sestet -- six lines
in sequential letters of the alphabet.
I try to avoid political rants, but today’s
outrageous tweet has me incensed. I
believe I’ll have a whiskey sour,
Bartender!
Here’s my PQRSTUV

************
Prophet of doom seems everywhere
Quick to disseminate threats
Ready to tweet outrageous falsehoods
Such a legend in his own mind
Too self-absorbed to bother with class
Uninformed, unprofessional, unmitigated ass
Vow to vote an end to this insanity.
******************
A blog for the midnight epiphanies and idle thoughts of a hopeless wordaholic.
I vow to do so!!! Love your poem.
ReplyDeleteVote for sure!
ReplyDeleteOf course. I hope you all vote to end this insanity.
ReplyDeleteI like the ass part the best:)
ReplyDeleteLet's hope your vow is shared :)
ReplyDeleteWhiskey sour coming right up! Apologies for not responding last night....we are in Provincetown at the very tip of Cape Cod, for our annual two weeks of bliss. Happened to turn on the tv last night at about 5:15 and all over the news was the live coverage of the multiple gas explosions in 3 towns, including Andover. Our daughter and her family live in Andover. I was texting and calling like made and could not reach them. Finally at about 6:30 - a short cut-off text that they were evacuating. Then at half-past midnight, they are back in their home, safe...entire town without electricity. So we were glued to the tv. But so glad to come back and be reading A-B-C-ing this morning, knowing they are well.
ReplyDeleteAnd oh yes....rant away here. I've done it many a time....and yes...here's to a BIG turnout for the November vote! Something MUST change. What an embarrassment to have this person as president. Rant away!
i love your PQRSTUV - it was a statement of its own there.
ReplyDeleteCount me in!

There are elements who thrive in such nasty outpourings. To ignore them is to be wise. Rightly so Beverly!

Nice line with all those words starting with "un": Uninformed, unprofessional, unmitigated ass
ReplyDeleteExcellent rant. I agree with every morsel. Janice
ReplyDeleteI love me some Trump-bashing. You know that poetically I strike out at him often. You rock the prompt & got a fist pump from me.
ReplyDeleteRight there with ya, Bev! I think we thought along the same lines for this one.
ReplyDeleteI cannot believe the "insanity" is allowed to continue. It's ridiculous. Waving to you from Canada where so many of us are entertained and disturbed by it all at the same time.
ReplyDeleteIf I could I would vote... you have to vote for us all who can not.
ReplyDeleteLove this rant! Especially what you do with the U line!
