Our
Flag Humping
Desk thumping
Wife dumping
Paper flushing
Document hoarding
Debate ignoring
Dumpster filling
Donation sucking
Insult throwing
Shady dealing
Office holding
Result denying
Impeached reeling
Lawyer needing
Repugnant leader
A souring flavor
This Maga savior?
A Pious Christian
Who can’t remember
A single passage
From the book he held
For Photo op. That day.
The Book upheld
For photo op.
An upside down
Swiftly Borrowed
Never read –
Fictional
“Family” Bible
If only he could be the one,
To give them what they’ve “earned”.
Unseen, unheard their voices blare.
He brings them only halfway there.
This savior for whom they’ve yearned.
He robs them blindly, – beyond repair.
Sowing fear then hate and more despair.
They vote for him. They just don’t care.
All their secrets he might blare.
Gov. officials should not share.
Opposing him they dare not go.
His hold on them we do not know.
A charlatan he’s always been.
This Racist Russian Rasputin.
We outside – can only stare.
We’ll never understand –
The sucking hold he has on them –
Or why they love this man.
