Warsick Blues

 I heard it on the evening news.

  Then I got the warsick blues.

The straits are closed, oil is up,

  A bitter taste in my cup.

Why it started I must confess.

  I blame Bibi and MBS.

The market crashed just yesterday,

  Someone’s ego got in the way.

The war is won we are told,

  As their stocks are bought and sold.

Oil profits are through the roof,

  Negotiations? Where’s the proof?

Silent drones are buzzing by,

  We are told, don’t ask why.

The bombs are falling over there,

  To kill them all, they say is fair.

Lord only knows what else ensues,

 I have got the warsick blues.
