The Tyrant’s Closet
In the tyrant’s closet
a telling wardrobe grows
to push aside
the narrative
that the emperor
has no clothes
Shined shoes for
hungry bootlickers
smeared with virgin honey
tailored suits
for traffickers
breast pockets
lined with money
A leather box
and flag pins
some strewn on a stack
of bibles
hoods and sheets
and bank receipts
for settlements
of libel
A copy of Mein Kampf
notes scribbled
on its pages
swastika bands
and spray tan cans
scrapped plans
for ballroom stages
In the tyrant’s closet
behind a rack of ties
a stack of notes handwritten
on the effectiveness of lies
A row of paper shredders
to make sure we never see
Love letters from North Korea
and those pics from Vlady P
A leather box
of flag pins
some strewn on stacks
of bibles
hoods and sheets
and bank receipts
for settlements
of libel
A copy of Mein Kampf
notes scribbled
on its pages
swastika bands
and spray tan cans
scrapped plans for ballroom
stages
In the tyrant’s closet
behind pictures
from teen pageants
and a grainy
torture video
of enemy combatants
an open bag of diapers
a case of diet coke
a Chappaquiddick
windshield wiper
and written warnings
to the woke
A leather box
of flag pins
some strewn on stacks
of bibles
hoods and sheets
and bank receipts
for settlements
of libel
A copy of Mein Kampf
notes scribbled
on its pages
swastika bands
and spray tan cans
scrapped plans for ballroom
stages
