Bad Poem For A Bad Idea

Chuck Taylor

February 2, 2025

I grope to find some hope.

Am I a fool, or a dope?

Is Texas at the end of its rope?

Soon it's food we will lack

If we stay on this political track

And ship all the migrants back.

The situation looks bad.

I don't to wish to sound rad.

What they're planning is sad.

Ranchers will lose a lot of money. 

We will be eating a lot of hominy. 

I hope you don't find this funny.

Chuck Taylor's latest novel is "Hamlet Versus Shakespeare." He taught Shakespeare at Angelo State University. The novel turns the tragedy of Hamlet into an adventure and comedy. Taylor is retired from wandering and teaching and spends his time with books, friends, family, manuscripts, a dog, and household repairs
