THE LIST OF THE NEWLY DEPARTED
For best results, read it aloud.
Getting a job is one thing. Leaving it… well, that’s something else again.
When cowboys finish the job, they are deranged.
Priests, as you know, are defrocked.
Then there’s models, who are deposed. Some are deformed or defaced.
Those that model underwear are debriefed, or the opposite, denuded.
Which is better than movie stars, who are defamed.
Private eyes are detailed and spies debugged.
Tennis players defaulted, but it’s deserved, while skiers are declined.
Cricketers are decreased.
Lance Armstrong, by the way, was detoured.
Organ transport surgeons who once delivered are now departed.
Podiatrists simply suffer defeat.
Fishermen are debated.
Those heating, ventilation and air-conditioning guys are deducted.
But liars and cheats, they’re deployed.
Financiers, devalued. Miners deposited.
Sales guys, decommissioned and depreciated.
The worst fate awaits teachers, who are detested.
Bakers are defloured and clerical staff, worse, defiled.
Ten pin bowlers are just despaired.
All this is a bit depressing, which is what happens to drycleaners. Before they’re depleted.
Things are better for others. At the end, electricians are defused but truly delighted.
Baristas are, yes, decaffeinated, and their customers, deactivated.
Politicians are devoted, they’d like us to believe. But it’s just a device.
And clutterers don’t like it, but in the end, they are devoid.
Virgins are decoyed while hookers are just … delayed.
Musicians are decomposed of course.
Old musicians just become defunct.
Sewer workers are deterred.
As for Trump…
He’s left a nation degraded, demeaned, debased
The appropriate ending is that he’s demobbed and debunked.
That’s democracy.
So there.
THE WORLD ACCORDING TO KERR
THE MAN HIMSELF
THE NOT SO REAL WORLD
