It seems we’ve become
the worst cliche,
megalomania,
the order of the day

land of the free,
home of the highest
incarceration rate...but,
yeah, no, everything’s great!

A manchild at the helm,
eyes filled with deceit
fat-fingering that button
ever ready to Tweet

we’re all lost in the
wake of his shit storm,
illiteracy in the White House
is, for us, the new norm.

Blinded by the darkness
of this orange-headed beast,
nothing but a rich bully
who loves to prey on the meek

The only positive in this all
might be a lesson learned...
if not, bring the marshmallows
to roast while New Rome burns.
