Limerick Friday LXXXXXXXXXXXXXXII: Not So Sure He’s Solid As Barack, Plus Drama Queens In Shin Guards


His record on the environment quite bleak
To civil liberties he’s turned the other cheek
He ran on a ticket of change
But decisions have been quite strange
Obama, you gotta prove you’re really unique

The World Cup has more dives than goals
The English keeper might get shot full of holes
Some don’t like the vuvuzela hum
Some think the new ball’s a bum
But South Africa is full of football-mad souls

Haynesworth acting like a douchy dick
The new definition of a selfish prick
Took $100 mil a year ago
Now looking for elsewhere to go
The part of pro sports that makes me sick

Stuck in D.C., away from my loves
Put up with two ditzy English doves
And an inept loser who defines “tool”
Though our capital is pretty cool
Delayed flight had me pleading to the above

Used to love the Lake Show
Magic played with rhythm and flow
Now Kobe is a bitchy fink
And Artest gives thanks to his shrink
How fucking low can the NBA go?


And one for the road …

As I was missing Mommy and Ube
Saw more fucked-up effects of BP
While an opposite ecology in San Fran
A vital tool for a social media fan
A hectic week yearns for a beer or three

Last time
