Governor Woke Smoke’s $campaign

                                                                            Governor Woke Smoke’s $campaign

I. Apologize, rationalize ‘bout Injun

removal/slavery? Why, you’re a beer short of a six-pack—

A fry short of a Happy Meal!

Crazier than a soup sandwich!

Crazy as an outhouse rat!

Nuttier than a five-pound fruitcake!

Apologize, rationalize ‘bout Injun removal/slavery?

You’re mad as a monkey on the Mason-Dixon Line!

Nuttier than a squirrel turd!

Nuttier than a porta potty at a peanut festival!

You’re proof you don’t have to hang from a tree to be a nut!

And you’re loopy as a crosseyed cowboy thinkin’

we’ll allow you to vote in this negro-rigged, neo-

Bolshevik system without at least posin’ the eligibility

questions: How many jelly beans in this jar?

How many bubbles in this bar of soap?

How much buckshot’s in my shotgun?

II. Dixie poised to take reich reins next $election…

One last hit off his woke pipe and Gov. Woke

Smoke’s $campaign’s off and running! Jr.

Moribund, wonky words/mumbo jumbo—lewd

legalese. Vows never to surrender to woke ideology!

Another strongman! Do no wrong man. Right

man/white man for the white house. Harvard

smarter than Boss Tweet’s lazy-ass, Last Days

of Pompeo…low Barr bungling and grifting…

STOP WOKE ACT/ STOP VOTE ACT—

on the down-low—Look away, look away

from confederate Florida/Sunshine State!

Freest state west of Hungary. “Where woke

goes to die” and Black teens spend formative

Years in solitary…

Vote removed; Shuffle added—Transposed into

Key of Assault Right—Ain’t nothin’ but “Bubba’s

Blues:”

“Woke Folk got bees in their bonnets ‘bout Injun

Removal and Slavery

Woke Folk got bees in their bonnets ‘bout Injun

Removal and Slavery

It’s still Jim Crow’s Bar-b-Q, whether the sauce is

sweet, or savory…”

STOP WOKE ACT/ STOP VOTE ACT—

on the down-low: Layman’s terms:

“We swear on patinated, pigeon shit-covered hooves of

Robert E. Lee’s horse,Traveller, Jews will not replace

us! Warning fetus-killing physicians: stand down— And

feral negro mongrels; Mexican murderers and

rapists; same sex-marrying Muslims holdin’ christianity

in contempt: No jihad in Dixie!

We’re taking her back—making her White Man’s Land

again!

Comply, or get outta the Sunshine State before sundown…”
