Marble-toothed titans
with sneers caked in madness
greed-fed on blood bags
in sweatshops of sadness
Kingpins with linchpins
thick carrots and sticks
deft robber barons
are up to their tricks
The morally crippled
gerrymander in Texas
felonious punk-thugs
that hate and perplex us
Gun toting douchebags
in Home Depot lots
promoting a fascist
while twisting the knot
The clown at the helm
of this powerful nation
is steeped in decline
and reverse escalation
Whitewashing history
attacking the truth
a maniacal misfit
both rude and uncouth
He creates chaos
to hold onto power
commanding the guard
from his fake ivory tower
Targeting cities
that are mostly all blue
a pig who gropes kitties
and pays porn stars to screw
Visions of heaven
black heart full of hate
He’s never come close
to making us great
If you haven’t had a chance yet, please check out my first book, My Paper, My Words: Rantings from a Progressive Boomer and Peeved Parent, from Amazon. And if you feel moved to write a review of the book on Amazon or elsewhere, I’d be honored.
My Paper, My Words is a collection of essays, stories, and poems that reflect the challenges of a middle-class husband and father trying to navigate a rapidly changing political, religious, and technological landscape of post-9/11 America.
