skip this if you please

Occasionally I've been known to break my own rules. I have a general rule to avoid politics on both FakeBook and this blog. Warning this post is breaking that rule. While I would like to change people's minds (or change the world - great song by Eric Clapton) I've found my influence on others somewhat limited. (however, I was told once that I had the best lunch ideas when the group couldn't decide where to go at work)
 


a ring of ??

Last summer I wrote about the blogging ring of fire.


not the ring of fire I had in mind

Writing is a burning thing
And it doesn’t help me sing
Bound by wild desire
I posted words of fire

I fell into a bloggin ring of fire
I went down, down, down
(but not past the comment section)
And the flames went higher
And it burns, burns, burns
The Ring Of Fire
The Ring Of Fire

The comments can be sweet
Give a facebook like or a tweet
I fell for readers like a child
Oh, but the fire went wild 



Before that song gets stuck in you head, listen to this minor hit from the sixties using my parody version of the lyrics below: 
(clarifying note - sometimes when you write something it's clear to you the writer but not always clear to the readers. That happened here with these lyrics. It makes more sense if you think of Donald Trump singing this song. Yeah I know Donald singing ?? might not be pleasant.)



Ok everyone sing along:

Breakin' rules in the hot sun
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I need attention 'cause I had none
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I left TV shows and it feels so bad
Guess my race is run
Reality TV the best that I ever had
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
Berating people is my fun
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I miss my business I run
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I left TV shows and it feels so bad
Guess my race is run
Reality TV the best that I ever had
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
I fought the GOP and Hillary won
