Four Limericks in the Theme of 2020

Ah yes, the year of 2020
Believe me, there was hubris aplenty
We were ruled by a man,
History knows as Chairman Dan,
Who thought the Roadmap led to the Land of Plenty

We’re approaching the end of a semester,
Which has been nothing short of a tester
But since you can’t touch my WAM,
You over-charging corporate sham,
I should thank you for teaching me the word ‘sequester’

Never did I think I would be,
Here at the end of my degree,
As unemployable as I was before,
Ambling through those damned revolving doors
Thank God I can make coffee

Here I am again on Zoom,
Coming to you live from my bedroom
I am not wearing pants,
So don’t look at me askance,
When I stand up and you see my büm
