Trump

1987

the crying mothers
and children are just actors
border passion play

during slavery
families were split and sold
what’s different now

deer in my backyard
shall I imprison their fawns
to make them sorry

disinfotainment
bots mimicking thoughts
moscow masquerade

as mesmerizing
as north korean cheer girls
more white house antics

I’ve said my prayers
bring on the shenanigans
unleash Kellyanne

♠️

emperor of trolls
wears no clothes at all
best to screw the proles

refusing health care
giving to the very rich
our generous poor

sparrows pecking oats
from steaming manure
trickle dung economics

old orange badger
in the china shop
what’s left unsmashed

old orange badger
sets fires and hides
bloodhounds on his trail

knave of spades fallen
under the table
a castle of cards

bishop, two pawns gone
the Mueller gambit
no trump card in chess

criminal charges
soon to be unsealed
Christmas comes early

poor puerto ricans
the ethnic cleansing
is the real storm
