Philosophy by Limerick – Billboard Confession Booth

Posted on August 16, 2012 by Old Jules | 2 comments

The woe-gunning sloganning wienies
So frightened of commies and greenies
Would sell their own grannies
And illegal nannies
To hear themselves venting their spleenies.

Philosophy by Limerick: * A Corncob and a Lie

Posted on August 15, 2012 by Old Jules | 1 comment

“Bend over and spread your cheeks,”
Aristocrat smirks to the meeks,
“Believe you’ll inherit
By pachyderm merit
Or equine, earth’s limitless peaks.”

Old Jules

* Apologies to Archibald MacLeish when he was young.

Philosophy by Limerick – Hot, Throbbing Democracy

“Equine or a pachyderm style?”
Ms. Street Hooker asks with a smile.
“Trickle-down while I wail out
Snatch wallet and bail out!
You won’t want to vote for a while!”

Philosophy by Limerick – Still Scary After All These Years

We miss those damned Marxists, so please
Find Commies behind all the trees!
Ain’t nuthun’ so thrilling
For shouting and shrilling
Ignoring the rot and the sleeze.

Philosophy by Limerick: Natural Non-Commie Fulfillment – Ayn Rand

Posted on August 14, 2012 by Old Jules | 9 comments

The guy in the doorway is dead
Not as tough as the one overhead
So she smiles and she greets him
With raised hips she meets him
It’s Darwin, it’s fate; it ain’t RED.

Philosophy by Limerick: Victimless Criminals – Whores, Druggies, and Drifters

Posted on August 12, 2012 by Old Jules | 4 comments

The criminal justice system
Jailed ’em where nobody missed ’em
Growth industry smudges
Cops lawyers and judges
And private jails sure should have kissed ’em.

Philosophy by Limerick – We’re DIFFERENT Now!

“A Marxist DICTATOR!” she cries
Buzz-wording with widening eyes.
Pretend OUR replacement
Will end the defacement;
OUR bail-outs efficient and wise.

Philosophy by Limerick – The Patriot

His love for the Second Amendment
Was pure, but he wasn’t so intimate
With stuff about wars,
State religion, of course
Or due process obstructing his sentiment.
