Happy Independence Day! (apparently also known as "Trump Day?") #Trump #Politics #USPolitics #Resist

If Trump Could Write Limericks (2-Verse Limerick) www.madkane.com/madness/2026... #Trump #USPOL #USPolitics #Politics #Resist #Iran #War #Limericks #Limerick #Poetry #News #MicroPoetry #Poems #Excursion #FakeNews #Media #Carr #BrendanCarr

My war in Iran’s going great!
Ev’ry option I’ve chosen’s first rate.
But the “fake news” is claiming
The opposite, blaming
My acts for the glitch with the Strait.
They are trying to make me lose face,
And it’s THEIR fault I’m losing my base.
But I’ll get them back soon,
And they’ll sing a new tune…
Cuz my pal Brendan Carr’s on the case.

A Madman's Motivations (2-Verse Limerick) #Trump #Iran #Mideast #War #Limerick #Limericks #Poetry #News #MicroPoetry #Poems #Resist #USPOL #USPolitics #Pentagon #Hegseth #Politics www.madkane.com/madness/2026...

Why did Trump start a Middle East war?
Was it boredom? A penchant for gore?
A great need to distract
From his failures? The fact
That The Donald’s insane to his core?
Or perhaps Trump is feeling the urgency
To declare a big wartime emergency,
Become Czar by decree,
Make the sane people flee…
And destroy any pro-Dem resurgency.

Happy National Margarita Day, which falls each year on February 22. And since #NYC is under a #blizzard warning, #margaritas may be just what we need to drown our #weather sorrows. #Margaritas #MargaritaDay #Limerick #Limericks #Writing #Humor #Humour #LightVerse #Poetry #Cocktails #MicroPoetry

Margarita’s a fave in our house.
If I drink one in bars, though, I’ll grouse;
They are weak and too sweet
And consistently beat
By the great ones prepared by my spouse.

Madeleine Begun Kane@madkane· Feb 3

In a vain attempt to hide the damage he’s personally caused to the #KennedyCenter, #Trump announced he’s closing the venue in July for a 2-year renovation. (Seems affixing fake gold takes time.) #Poetry #News #MicroPoetry #Limericks #Humor #Writing #USPOL #USPolitics #Politics #PoetryCommunity

Why’s the Kennedy Center soon closing?
Cuz Trump WRECKED it; its rep’s decomposing.
Most great talent says, “No!
Won’t perform there!” And so,
It’s near death from a ticket sale hosing.

I had some fun with social media in this two-verse #limerick, using the #prompt word #Thread: #DailyHaikuPrompt #Limericks #Humor #Humour #Poetry #MicroPoetry #LightVerse #Authors #Writers #SocialMedia #PoetryCommunity

An illustrious author named Frank
Said “I’ll stop writing books” as a prank.
Many fans called him “Quitter,”
Strew hate-posts on Twitter
And Threads, wished him dead, said he stank.

“You flamers should all be ashamed!
I was joking,” Frank quickly proclaimed.
“But because of your bitching,
Right now I am switching
My genre. And YOU shall be blamed!”

#Haiku and #Limerick celebrating New Year's #Resolutions: My resolution: No more resolutions I can’t keep, like this one. #NewYear #Haiku #Senryu #Limericks #Humor #Humour #Poetry #MicroPoetry #LightVerse #Writing

A fellow was making a list
Of items he’d try to resist
In the upcoming year.
But he lost it, I fear:
Both the list and his will to desist.

As my husband Mark and I were making dinner plans, I remembered this limerick: #Christmas #Holidays #HolidayDining #HolidayMeals #Humor #Humour #Limerick #Limericks #ChineseFood #Poetry #MicroPoetry #Jews #Jewish #LightVerse #Poems #Writing #PoetryCommunity

Here’s a query that’s answered with ease:
“What do Jews do on Christmas Day, please?”
We watch movies and read.
Surf the Net. (Dull indeed!)
But mostly we munch on Chinese.

Happy #Regifting Day! (2-Verse #Limerick) #Humor #Humour #Limericks #Poetry #MicroPoetry #Poets #Writers #Gifts #Presents #Holidays #Christmas #Chanukah #Hanukkah #PoetryCommunity #Writing #LightVerse

A woman was trying to sift
Through items to maybe regift.
But alas, she confused
The stuff she perused.
I suspect that some folks will be miffed.

A fruitcake went back to the sender,
And the same thing occurred with a blender.
Then a gift from her brother
Got sent to her mother.
Her relationships now need a mender.

“I am stuck in a rut; it’s monotonous
To study philosopher Plotinus.
Though folks warned I’d be bored,
Their advice went ignored…
Cuz they used the non-word ‘misbegottenous.'”

“Today’s topic is ‘mind over matter,'”
Said the prof. “Kindly cease all your chatter.”
“Make us stop with your mind,”
A young smart-aleck whined.
He was kicked out (hind first) with a clatter.

#Infantino #Trump #FIFA #PeacePrize #WorldCup #Resist #KennedyCenter #Limerick #Limericks #Poetry #News #USPOL #USPolitics #Politics #MicroPoetry #Poems #Writing #NobelPeacePrize

It's no secret: The Donald's long yearned
For the Peace Prize, an honor unearned.
Seems Nobel's prize committee
Agrees that Trump's shitty.
So Donald was rightfully spurned.

But that ISN'T the end of the story,
For there's NO quenching Trump's thirst for glory.
That's where FIFA comes in:
Hands a fake "peace prize" win
To a brute who loves waging outlawry.

I hear tell that it’s healthy and sage
To be sanguine, no matter your age.
But sanguineous Trump
Turned me into a grump,
So I often turn reddish with rage.

Madeleine Begun Kane@madkane· Nov 28

Trump’s very angry about this New York Times article: “Shorter Days, Signs of Fatigue: Trump Faces Realities of Aging in Office.” Hence my "If #Trump Could Write #Limericks." www.madkane.com/madness/2025... #Poetry #News #MicroPoetry #Poems #Resist #Aging #USPOL #USPolitics #Politics #Writing

The FAKE NEWS falsely claims that I’m aging!
I’m so youthful, that lie is enraging.
My stamina’s great,
My brain is first-rate,
And I’m virile, so brace for rampaging.

Is there anything Donald can’t do?
Seems the Senate and House won’t say “Boo.”
And permissive Supremes
Keep fulfilling his dreams;
Willing allies in Donald Trump’s coup.

“I am sorry to say that I feel
Your ideas are far from ideal.

To produce a good rhyme,
So this ‘muse’ deal must end. (It’s been real.”)

How I wish we had some way to halt
Donald’s evil, persistent assault
On our land. But alas,
No one reins in that ass:
Ev’ry day spawns a new “Oy, Gevalt!”

“What’s that ruckus?” she said with a curse.
“I’m on deadline. It’s time to write verse.”
But just then, the noise grew
As a neighbor (on cue)
Banged his drums and began to rehearse.

My Aunt Tifa says Trump cannot bear
‘No Kings’ rallies by marchers who dare
To resist Donald’s reign
Of sheer terror and pain.

Trump’s distraught: All his bullying failed.
He’s been told that a woman has nailed
The Peace Prize (Nobel.)
He’s in ketchup-hurl hell.
“It’s a DEI rip-off!” he railed.

Trump's Justice Dept. has submissively filed frivolous indictments against James Comey and Letitia James.

Donald’s medical knowledge is nil.
His rash edicts can harm, even kill.
Trump should swiftly recant
His daft Tylenol rant.
If you fall for his slant, draft that will.

My "Laundry Mishap" #limerick, using the #BlueskyRelay #prompt #Guilt, insisted on being a 2-verser. So it wouldn't fit here unless I turned it into an image. (If that's a problem, I've provided Alt text.) #LimerickSunday #Limericks #Humor #Humour #Poetry #MicroPoetry #Verse #Poems #PoetryCommunity

"You have ruined our blanket! Just look,"
Said the laundromat patron. "You took
An expensive new quilt
And destroyed it. Your guilt
Will be blanketing X. You're a crook!"

Said the owner, "Your claim is obscene!
Do you NOT understand what rules mean?
It is you who's to blame:
You placed quilts in the same
Bag as bedsheets, which broke our machine."

Yet Another Trump Limerick www.madkane.com/madness/2025... #Limerick #Limericks #Poetry #News #MicroPoetry #Poems #Resist #Trump #MAGA #USPOL #USPolitics #Politics #PoetryCommunity

Donald’s drive for more power is endless.
And alas, he’s determined to spend less
On items essential
And e’en existential.
I’m guessing he’s always been friendless.

Trump's Tattletale Chatbot (Two-Verse Limerick) www.madkane.com/madness/2025... Washington Post Headline: “New chatbot on Trump’s Truth Social platform keeps contradicting him" #Trump #TruthSocial #ChatBot #Poetry #News #Limericks #MicroPoetry #Resist #Trump #MAGA #USPOL #USPolitics #Politics

Truth Social’s confusing Trump’s base;
Valid facts somehow entered its space:
Seems its chatbot AI’s
Been replacing some lies
With the truths Trump would rather erase.

Election fraud, tariffs, and crime?
Ask the chatbot, and most of the time
It rebuts Donald’s view.
So will Donald Trump sue
His own site? Trump v. Bot! How sublime!

Keeping order’s impossibly hard
When your husband, a hoarder, stands guard
To ensure “priceless” crap’s
Not thrown out while he naps.
So my odds of success? Not one shard!
