Members of ‘Friends of Abe’, from left: Gary Sinise, Kelsey Grammar and Jon Voight

It’s time for us to bid goodnight,
To the home of the Hollywood Right,
A shabby old club,
That served lousy grub,
And never sent me an invite.

Former Armagh GAA football captain Jarlath Burns

A high profile GAA man,
Has alienated a fan,
With a comment that said,
That the shape of her head,
Resembled the back of a van.

Utah Governor Gary Herbert (above) signed a resolution which declares pornography “a public health hazard

In Utah they’re pouring their scorn,
On the evil temptations of porn,
So bodily bits,
Like arses and tits,
Are banned now, along with the horn.

Republican Presidential hopeful Donald Trump at rally in Buffalo, New York last night

The gap between seven and nine,
Is naught but a very fine line,
And if Don makes a slip,
As he shoots from the hip,
There’s no need to nit-pick and whine.

Artist Ashley Illma Gore with her portrait of Donald Trump

An artist named Gore may be sued,
If she flogs off a tatty old nude,
It’s not bad, as it stands,
But she drew tiny hands,
And the whole thing looks crazy and rude.

In a cock-up that’s tricky to beat,
A coder managed to delete,
All his customers’ sites,
Now it’s time for last rites,
His career has been short if not sweet.

Maura Healy Rae and her father Danny during the General Election 2016

I see that the new Healy-Rae,
Has something important to say,
She doesn’t aspire,
To live in The Shire,
And hide rural housing away.

Professor Stephen Hawking

It’s a shabby and shameful disgrace,
That humans have not conquered space,
But the world’s favourite prof,
Has teamed up with a toff,
To launch the next phase of this race.

If you think that the world’s greatest song,
Is by Zeppelin, well maybe you’re wrong,
A judge will decide,
If Plant and Page lied,
When they said it’s their work all along.

A display of illegal dumping, Frankfort Cottages, Killarney Street, Dublin 1

The council have thrown a curve ball,
Putting litterbugs up on a wall,
Fifteen minutes of fame,
Brings attention and shame,
That the dirty ones don’t want at all.
