February 21, 2023

Global aid's falling, that's what they say
Life dwindles away day by day
Profits are up, reaching new heights
Brexit's causing Irish border fights

Texas worries about "carbon bombs"
CEOs' pay, on the other hand, gets strong
A publisher thinks of Orwellian edits
Apple's laptop is renewed, no credit debits

Tiger's not happy, but what can he do?
White history month, again anew
Abortion pills aren't available for some
Jet fighters are deemed "unprecedented" sums

War crimes in the night, thick dust fills the air
Buildings collapse, people trapped, it's not fair
Pain, once again, is felt by all
Women in midlife crisis, politicians say "Türkiye" and stall

Rail profits rise, but more death underground
Safety risks override public health, bound
Spouses declare war, corrupted to the core
Putin's going nuclear, what are we in for?

Super swines are taking over, that's what's been told
Gerontocracy, damn social platforms, they're getting old
Hollywood's remakes are like projectile vomit
Real people work hard, free originality for profit

Team Jorge's distorting reality, but what can we do?
Just eat my ChatGPT, it'll comfort you

Liner Notes:

I'm pushing my boundaries today and trying something new and evolving. Initially, I wanted a freestyle free verse segment but ended up with a rhyme scheme for cohesion.
