Wanted Dead Or Alive: PEACE

NEVERMORE

Last seen picking its nose leaning on a lamp post in Iraq gazing toward Russia. What did Trumper promise anyway? The price was right, I guess - I have a game of jacks for sale; any takers? I'm liquidating.

A rumor of peace reached Seattle and they gentrified it. It escaped, went to see fire in the south, waved to the backs of ex-federal fire workers. Word reached N. Y. Times: colorado river is now Colorado Pond.

"A rumor of peace reached Seattle and they/ gentrified it." Too funny, and painfully spot on. 

 

 There are a few Peace sightings now and then, but wider events can leave us demoralized. You did a fabulous job satirizing this daily plummet into cynicism. We need a release valve such as your piercing, undaunted, devastating wit. How else can we deal with a farcical level of tragedy? 

 

Timely and crucial humor.
