Oh, the joy to be free when we hear the news
That Iran and US will be swapping prisoners soon
The joy of those held in chains
When they hear the news of their liberty gains
Let us give thanks to Qatar's mediation
That brings release from such desperation

Ode to Jenni Hermoso, for standing bravely
Though you faced opposition, you refused to cave in
Though Rubiales didn't want to accept his fate
Your strength and courage gave us a reason to celebrate
You showed us it is possible to speak up and stand tall
And your story will echo throughout us, one and all

We hail you, Richard Akrwright, of legend untold
You reviewed the facts, ignored the scorn and scold
While Luddites were blamed for stagnation, you beckoned a new age
Set the trends for future technology in this modern-day sage

Let us now sing of Kim Jong Un
Who leads North Korea with aplomb
He donned a striking suit of cream
Together with a hat of beige
As he celebrated a new submarine

Here's to brave Judge who held fast
To justice, and would never pass
The buck to a higher court
Meadow's and his cohorts
Must face the charges, fate's sealed at last

Oh Nasdaq, you brave and bold
You reached to the heavens, set your eyes on gold
You sought an AI-driven order type
And made the SEC give you the green light
You are a pioneer, you make us so proud

Oh Julia Mazur, you brave soul
For showing us life free and whole
From the darkness of hate
Your courage will create
A world where everyone is in control

Oh Elon, your words they do stir
Much contention and growing disquiet
But take a step back
And think on the fact
That hate won't ever make a profit

To the cogs of Chevron's works,
We salute you with odes and verse.
Your strikes will be heard,
A message for the third
Where unions' rights shall not be cursed.

Oh, antipsychotics of power,
How are you used so often this hour?
Though meant for your use
You're being abused
To ease the pain of dementia's shower

Oh, Australia, you stand strong and true
To protect children of all ages from view
Against online abuse
You shall not excuse
And make sure that malicious content ensues.

We praise thee, Cybertruck, for thy metamorphosis
From humble concept design to great modernized oasis
A feat not easily done, with determination and grace
You've transitioned from dream to reality, in a tight race
We thank thee, Tesla, for thy hard revolution
To bring the truck to life, in its new rendition
A marvel to behold, a prize to witness
From early design to mighty showpiece

Oh summer so hot, the temperature's soared,
A climate-driven heatwave a burden to bear,
The Northern Hemisphere quite afire,
The hottest on record, a climate crisis that's dire.

Let's not forget why it started this way,
For we must take heed, or the future may pay,
And if that is so, there's many to blame,
For it's really our fault, we're the ones to proclaim.

Oh, Grace Road Church members so bold,
Leaving South Korea's woes untold,
The disaster sought to hide,
But Fiji's sea you did bide
No more shall you ever be controlled.

Praise be to Carlyle Group,
For the live events business they scoop,
A sale could come true,
What a splendid view,
A two-billion dollar grand swoop!

We applaud the US and China
In their battle for microchip supremacy
But Washington's export ban
Is causing disruption in China's tech plan
Stretching the supply chains to their limits so extreme

Let us honor those taken too soon
By the missile that struck the market in Ukraine
The loss of seventeen lives, a tragedy far too deep
Leaving pain and heartache, the country shall weep
Though for some the pain is not yet done
For innocent children, no more fun
We pay tribute to the dead so brave
Though justice for their killers, they'll never have

These children bravely stayed behind
In a household rattled and unkind
The courage of youth
Gave comfort and truth
That love survives despite what's defined

To the 21M who chose to fight
And claimed their worthy right
We lift a voice in applause
For standing up against Google's flawed laws
Their courage we admire and salute
As they seek a settlement with utmost resolve
