Why'd you vote for Trump?
"He'll end the Ukraine war on the first day!"
Yeah, didn't happen. What else you got?
"He'll make groceries cheaper!"
He's about to implement tariffs, which will increase the price of groceries. Care to try again?
"He's a man of God!"
His favorite book is "Two Corinthians."
"So?"
Who, besides your orange messiah, calls it by that name?
"Everyone I know."
Liar. The guy wouldn't even place his tiny hand on the Bible while being sworn-in.
"So?"
He seems to make it a point to break every Commandment at least 45 to 47 times a week.
"No one's perfect."
The guy has compared himself to Jesus I don't know how many times.
"But it's kinda true when you..."
Have you ever read the Bible?
"Of course! It's my favorite book!"
Read the teachings of Jesus. They are antithetical to the words and actions of Lord Little Hands.
"Anti- what?"
Fine, antichrist. Donald Trump is literally 'antichrist.' Any other reasons?
"He'll end birthright citizenship!"
Do you believe in the Constitution?
"Yeah, who doesn't?!?"
Birthright citizenship is protected in the Constitution.
"So what?"
Yeah, okay, anything else, slick?
"Only women can play women's sports!"
Well, congratulations, he made it so the U.S. only recognizes two sexes - male and female. So where will transgender athletes compete? Will a transgender man be labeled as a man or a woman? What about transgender women? Who gets to decide and how do they come to said conclusion?
"That sounds complicated."
Trump only exacerbated the complications.
"Exagger-what?"
Don't worry about it. Have any other reasons why you voted for Trump?
"Because he'll make America great again!"
How so?
"He'll make us proud to be Americans!"
The Gulf of Mexico.
"What about it?"
When you hear 'the Gulf of Mexico,' what immediately comes to mind?
"Like water, and maybe Mexico. A gulf. I don't know."
What if we changed the name?
"To what?"
I don't know, how about the Gulf of America?
"Can we do that?"
In our minds, sure. Why not?
"Well, okay."
Would that make America great again?
"It'd be a start!"
Why?
"Because, you know, Murica!"
Jebus...
"What?"
Nothing. Have any other reasons why you voted for Trump? Please say no.
"Russia!"
What about Russia?
"Russia is like the greatest country in the history of the world!"
I thought America was.
"We're gonna be."
But Russia currently is?
"Well, yeah."
So, what, we're aspiring to be like Russia?
"Asperger's isn't politically correct."
That's not what I said. Holy lord... Okay, let's play a game - I'm going to say a name, and without thinking about it - I know you won't, blurt out the first thing that comes to mind. Got it?
"Okay, I'm ready."
Gorbachev.
"F*ck him! F*ck Gorbachev! F*ck communism! F*ck Russia! Russia sucks!"
Putin.
"Russia rules! Stay true to Putin! To Russia with love! Long live communism!"
Interesting.
"How'd I do?"
Are you down with KGB?
"What's that mean?"
Yeah, you know me.
"What are you talking about, bro?"
Shut it, comrade.
My first book review of "Penetrating the Heart of Life: Ambiguous In Thought, Ambivalent In Feeling"
Well, I received my first book review on this poetry-compilation book I completed and published late last year, but have finally gotten around to marketing now. The reviewer gave it 5 out of 5 stars and said: "I enjoyed the poetic journey the writer has taken me on. From darkest days and hopeful optimism to the conclusion of hope realized. The visual images that the poem titled "Room Temperature" elicits, made me think of the song, "Horse With No Name" sung by the band America. In a similar manner, another poem – "Deafening Sigh-lence" reminded me a great deal of Simon & Garfunkel’s song, "The Sound of Silence". There are so many poems in this book that I related to, that I felt a connection to the author and felt that we were traveling on this journey together." http://www.lulu.com/shop/craig-rozniecki/penetrating-the-heart-of-life-ambiguous-in-thought-ambivalent-in-feeling/paperback/product-18677501.html
