We have an Uncle Fester, almost eighty,
his behaviors are causing concern.
Sends out weird pictures of himself.
One day he’s a fighter pilot
dropping feces bombs,
the next day he’s Jesus Christ.

Someone made a whopper mistake,
gifted Uncle Fester a label-maker.
He slapped his name everywhere.
We’re talking street corner signs,
the neighborhood center,
and the cemetery too.

Shocked my aunt by gilding his den
then bull-dozers suddenly appeared,
tore down their living room!
Shocked beyond words she asked him why.
“We need a ballroom” he said.
“For what?” she screamed,
“You don’t even dance!”

Sits up all hours of the night
posting, posting, posting.
Posted eleven times in forty-two minutes,
then fell asleep at inopportune times.
Brings up a contest he lost six years ago.
Claims he won though facts say he lost.
Brings it up over and over and over again.

Hoists f-bombs at neighbors and friends.
Can’t stay on topic when he talks,
wanders off with grandiose lies.
According to him, he’s the absolute best
at everything there ever was.
We hear it over and over and over again.
So what do you think?  
Is there cause for concern?

Hmmmmm……do you think Uncle Fester sounds like Donald Trump? My apologies to the “real” Uncle Fester! He’s a character in the fictional Addams Family. Image is of Jackie Coogan playing the role. Image is in public domain.
