Had to see what is true,
When media screw…
News stories
To mirror their creeds,
With an objective to undo?
–
Yellow and jingo once printed,
Are nothing compared to hate printed….
Open rebellion
Looks Orwellian,
By big financiers it’s rented.
–
FOX NEWS is giving in
To the liberal din…
Instead of balancing
Progressive thinking,
Surrender is made to their sin.

–A Political Opinion Poem–by Jonathan Caswell
Cold and snowy, it’s vital,
To let my car sit and idle…
Defroster in back
Doesn’t work, more the lack
Of help getting clear windows reliable!
–
I’ have about a half an hour,
Before relief shows up under power…
Waiting for his call
I dare not move at all,
Until I hear from him within the hour.
–
It’s been a fun twelve-hour shift,
Not too often did the mind drift…
Typing has been
My rescue then,
As ideas I write and sift.

Women have a great billboard,
Thunderous to great accord…
Admired by all
A message stands tall,
A fun way of which we’ll never be bored!

He’s bungled another one so,
 Warm smiles he used to get, No
More of these–
Just pleasantries,
Takes delicate handling, you know!

–J.E.C.
More and more stations  broadcast,
Westerns we thought wouldn’t last…
Heroines too,
Make this boy blue,
‘Cause when I see them, a long time has past!
(But Janey, of AtomicRedhead, is the obvious exception!)

Commuter traffic today,
 A wild and crazy way…
Coming to work
Past cars that twerk,
And skillfully zig-zag their way!
–
His speed often is steady,
Vehicles passing are many…
“Sixty” m.p.h.
Isn’t slow but makes
The rest like Mario Andretti.*
–
Then there are slow pokes who drive,
To make you want to skin them alive…
Riding their brake
Then signaling late,
So where did they learn to drive?
–
Problem is me-myself and I,
Have done each of these bye-and-bye…
Except the swerving
Which is unnerving,
Requiring coordinated hand-and -eye!
–
–Jonathan Caswell
We’ll take this rather than snow
And ice…at twenty below…
Some of these wind gusts
May tree branches bust,
Farenheit degrees under zero!
–
Worcester Schools telephoned ’round,
Tomorrow the are shutting down…
Weather-related
The message stated,
Do kids stay home or downtown?
–
–J.E.C.
How many of you have dry skin,
Even dandruff…dropping…
From head and face
All over the place,
A static charge  on the lenses must win!
–
–J.E.C.
One of our Thanksgiving treats,
She made me “Harvard” beets…
Will have tonight–
They smell just right,
But they’re not something she eats!
–
I’ll warm them up a tad,
Warmed up like a Harvard grad…?
Purple stains
Are tough ingrained—
I don’t want my wife being sad!

Know “Monkey in the Middle”?
With God’s house you do not fiddle…
Found a place
With just enough space,
‘Though he trimmed its courtyard a little!
