8.3.20 – An Apple Haiku

August 3, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

Apple means business.
It passed Saudi Aramco.
Praise be to Tim Cook.

7.31.20 – Delay! Delay! Delay!

July 31, 2020July 31, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

Delay the damned election!
It’s over anyways…
I will surely beat that Biden
If I ever get my way.
It’s for the safety of the people
Who will cast their votes for me.
Don’t mind the pushback from my party.
I demand delay from thee!

7.30.20 – Marching Out

July 30, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

Oh when the troops
Go marching out
Of Germany
Putin exalts
Trump
For being his ally
Oh when the troops
Go marching out.

7.29.20 – Monopoly

July 29, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

Bezos and Sundar
Cook and Zuck
All stand to be
Honest and judged
By Congress in a show
Of power and trust
For the consumer
Against these rich tech buffs.

7.28.20 – Lives

July 28, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

Unseen, a virus,
Marches through
Killing six hundred
Thousand.
More visible
Is fire
Blazing past
Killing over three
Billion.

7.27.20 – 72 Hours

July 27, 2020July 27, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

You have 72 hours
To pack up your things
Because diplomacy is dead
Between DC and Beijing.

7.24.20 – Stay in there, Ted!

July 24, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

They yell
As Mayor Wheeler wipes his eyes.
Portland doesn’t know it yet
But this is where
Democracy dies:
Coughing up its lung
In a fog of tear gas.

7.23.20 – Washington Football Team

July 23, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

Cheer! Cheer!
For the Washington Football Team!
Is it a lion, a tiger,
Or even a bear?
No! It’s a Football Team!
The fiercest in the jungle and sea!
Their cleats come a stompin’
And they growl through their teeth
All will fear
The Washington Football Team!

7.22.20 – Houston Heat

July 22, 2020July 22, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

The barrels swelled
As secrets flowed
Into the fires
The consulates stoked.
Chinese officials
Departed with fury.
They were told to leave.
They did so in hurry.

7.21.20 – Portland Pandemonium

July 21, 2020 / Christopher Unterberger / Leave a comment

Portland, Org.
Is caught in a storm
Born from the fronts met
Between the State and the Feds.

Trump protects monuments
While we protect ourselves.
