“Trump’s Bloody Stump” (Higgledy-Piggledy)
Bookmark
Summary:
The term, "higgledy-piggledy" dates back to the late 16th century. It likely refers to the humorous herding of pigs, and in its poetic form, expresses the haphazard or humorous antics of a particular individual (Blame it on our friend, "Duhsjaak"). 😃 All critique is welcome. ✍

Thank you, Damian, most gratefully for the encouraging kudos,
I hope your holidays have been filled with joy and laughter.
Yes, Trump is quite the iniquitous bump.
You’re appreciated, too, M’Friend! ⁓ Richard🖌
Hoi @Rascal
Light verse has a very very special place in the hearts of the Dutch.
There was a time, Some 40 years ago, that I met THE promotor of Dutch higgeldy piggeldies/olleke bollekes every first Tuesday of the month.
So i must have written hundreds of them. Most of them as part of lyrics for songs, almost all of them in Dutch.
And a few in English. One I remember where ‘sustainabiliy’ was the key word. But looking for this one is impossible.
The very long and very impressive artistic life of Carole king, began with ‘O Neil’. An answersong to O Carol by Neil Sedaka.
With that in mind I decided to write an olleke bolleke to you. An answer song or thereabouts.

Donald Trump wat is dat
Nog niet genoeg gehad
Tijd voor wat vrije tijd
Dat komt goed uit

Wordt geen misdaad geschuwd
Naar de afgrond geduwd
Wanneer is het genoeg
B’donder de kluit
What I like about it, is that it’s full of letters/pronounciations the English language doesn’t have.
I love your poem to pieces. Thank you for posting!
Kind regards, Gus
Greetings, Gus 🌿
I’ve written a few Higgledy Piggledy pieces, finding them enormously entertaining to compose, if a bit fairly challenging … which I always enjoy, too!

Donald Trump, what is that?
Haven’t had enough yet?
Time for some free time
That works out well
II
No crime is spared
Pushed to the brink of the abyss
When is enough enough?
Damn the whole lot
Yeah! When pronounced, comparing my English version with your Dutch version, I see what you mean by the fuller experience, and I completely agree.
“Trump’s Bloody Stump” (in Dutch)
Rommelig en chaotisch…
onze oranje man, Donald Trump,
trapt in zijn eigen valkuil
met bizarre poses.
Hij bijt zich vast in zijn eigen enkel
terwijl hij onbegrijpelijk
en dwaas
gekke uitspraken doet.
Ha-HAH! Poetry is such an endless smorgasbord of creative delight!
Thanks, Gus, for sharing some of it with me! ⁓ Rascal🖌
Love the comically playfulness of the write.
Many thanks, Dear Fia, for dropping by for a read 🤓
I’m so glad I’ve tickled your funny bone, and am truly grateful that you love anything about my poetry!
“Happy Holidays, Dear Poetess!” ⁓ Rascal🍷
Delightful piece in every way.Quite the opposite of the orange buffoon.
His ascent to POTUS surely must put to bed the notion of an all caring,all loving,all knowing God.
🙏
Salutations, Peter ✨
The most basic sensibilities would struggle to disagree with your well founded sentiments of our orange tinted Potus, Syr Poet … he’s emphatically that depraved!
Thanks bushels for reading and your much appreciated compliment! ⁓ Rascal🖌
I don’t think the title of your article matches the content lol. Just kidding, mainly because I had some doubts after reading the article. https://accounts.binance.com/register-person?ref=JW3W4Y3A
