Giggle

He liked a little giggle,

To ease his nagging pain;

He giggled at the Middle East,

He giggled at Ukraine.

 

He giggled at the climate’s pranks,

And at the unemployed;

He giggled at inflation,

At communities destroyed.

 

He giggled at the experts,

Predicting doom and gloom;

He giggled at the warheads,

Directed at his room.

 

He giggled at the cinders

Of annihilated wealth,

And, floating up above the fray,

He giggled at himself.

Thank you, Uilleam and RBK. Nigel Farage once said, gloatingly, "you're not laughing now, are you?". On that basis, it's important to keep laughing!
And thanks to everyone who liked this poem.

Thanks, Stephen, "many a true word..." etc; but there's no cure for stupidity...unless of course, one is willing to learn!
Until then, the order of the day is: "I'm all right Jack!"
