See the 1st verse: Austin-American Statesman, April 9th, 1989. A real study. And boy, did I get a lot of flack from the “gentle sex.” Just reporting what I read — in my own words, of course. Isn’t that what good reporters do?

I was intrigued the whole time reading this.
Informative and entertaining!
With a side of “it wasn’t my fault”. Hahaha
Enjoyed the read. -

I’m glad you enjoyed it. It is a fun one to perform, though it’s been a good while since I have done that.

Very entertaining! I don’t trust politicians no matter who they are.

Ah, thank you! Did you play the audio? I need to redo it, but it’s not too bad.
-

I listened to the audio and it sounded great to me. Lots of rhythm.

Oh, good. I still need to fix it though (it’s missing a word I had to add after Trump took the throne, er, office.)

haha, well then get that word in flat daddy. One word might not make a difference unless it’s a real good one. 🙂

Oh, yes! The word is “nay” — it wasn’t in there before. I won’t tell you where (oh, boy, a treasure hunt!), but once you find it, you’ll understand why I had to add it. So now I must add it to the audio — which, of course, requires doing it again.

Super cool and fun poetic satire on the cash that floats our politicians. Buying elections with the telegenic looks and velvet tongue has been going on for a long time. Great poem.

Ah, yes, and I find it strange for that very reason that I did not go into politics myself; it’s too bad my mirror does not agree. Damn lying glassy two-dimensional things that populate every bathroom I’ve ever been in. Who put those damn things there? Certainly not me! Thanks for the nice comments, John.

I like how the poem casts Caligula -a figure known for cruelty -into a haunting, reflective presence. I feel intrigued and a little unsettled: his brutal history seeps through with a mild, almost playful sadism, yet the poem channels that darkness into a tender, romantic meditation on desire, resilience, and the quiet power of love. Beautiful.

An artistic and intriguing comment. I lived in the English city of Chester for some time and it’s steeped in Roman history,. Think it may have had some bearing on this scribble. Thank you.

Now that is interesting. That tiny brain was in control all that time. So we have the same tiny brain and respond just the same way as a man would. Was that article in the Times? Nice read
