The many erections of Leslie —
At Columbus and Harvard especially —
Whether early or late,
These will have to deflate,
Before he is held for arrestly.

It really don't get any higher
Than naming your college "Messiah" -
In the chapel we praise
In the lockers we haze.
Y'all cannot wait to apply. Ja?
Ex-Trump nominee Paul Ingrassia
Appears to be rather a Nazia
Although not Trump's first
And far from his worst
For his loss we can only say grazia
The Epstein procuress Ghislaine
Is heard from again and again.
Her latest appeal?
Supremes say no deal.
Back to minim. security pen.
When the Vineyard's most off-putting fogey
Demanded his share of pierogi
The seller said, "Alan,
You're just not my pal, and
I think you should move to Muskogee."
Brevard Co.'s Representative Fine
Is so violent and wretched a swine
That even old AIPAC
Takes a startled step way back
When he speaks what is on his foul mind
Zut alors! Now ze game it is on.
Here's the lawsuit from Brigitte Macron.
And the statement from Candace?
"Ah shit man oh man, this
Is totally very pas bon."
Two billionaires love Giacometti
It’s made them behave rather petty
As suits follow suits
Between rich greedy brutes
The sick’ning tableau is perfetti
'This "measles" thing's a fed'ral plot,'
Says Mercy Culture's Pastor Schott:
'Don't need no stinkin' devil's dose.
Just Father Son and Holy Ghost.
Our kiddies' death means diddlysquat.'
'Bien sûr, Monsieur Bannon's salute
Was très déclassé - oui, sans doute.
He's not a nice fella,'
Said Jordan Bardella;
'I'm leaving to reread La Chute.'
Without them veils I'd be a goner.
I must have taken too much bourbon ...
Quick! Lend me PDQ your turban!
Ah. Now I feel at peace, and calmer."
The biblical mandate from Walters
Now faces a lawsuit and falters.
“But I ain’t forlorn.
My obsession with porn
Sustains me against all assaulters.”
He drew his sword out of its scabbard
Then proudly he stood up and slabbered,
“Our Bobby’s repulsy
But nae like our Tulsi!
Come on, Dems! Prepare to be Gabbar’d!!”
I’m pissing myself over Tuesday’s debate
And I’m wondering now if it isn’t too late
To get the thing scrapped.
I know nothing, and there’s so much at stake.
America’s a wasteland, says Vance guru Peter Thiel
I’m boxing up my billions and I’m moving to New Zeal.
Patriots like me believe
If you don’t like the US, leave.
Fuck that ‘Make America Great Again’ spiel.
