After a Week

A Work in Progress
112

So Caesar’s crossed the Rubicon again

Gone off to war to escape the files

Moving the needle off the Epstein track

A long-playing record it keeps coming back

A war going well allows days of distraction

After a week a war starts to smell

bodies buried under rubble bulldozed aside

burnt buildings still standing where no-one resides

Slowly Pam Bondi drips more Trump data out

A woman in a real time reality show cast

With an eye on what comes after not what went before

The way she’s playing it is strictly film noir

Now she’s subpoenaed what will she say?

Will she open the floodgates let the media play

Releasing everything including some sex tapes

Reminding the public of E. Jean Carroll’s rape

After a month a war doesn’t end well

One way to stop it might be an impeachment

This isn’t a short war they’re going full bore

For Trump this war is an exit door

 

Packaged as a video game played out on TV

Huge explosions death and destruction 

The Russians help Iran target American troops

Gulf State waterworks while losing territory Ukraine recoups

A war of attrition has now begun

A race to produce the cheapest drone

No thought of we the people

Our fate’s cast in stone

Bards of old in Ireland’s green hills

Once called an end to the battles below

When common sense and chivalry made men better

Not influencer go getters and media in fetters
