donald j. trump
never bothered to
learn much about
government or
history––
his sole subject of
interest was/is
Himself
he never served
his country––
doesn’t know
how––
he only cares
how the country
swoons for
Him
he has the biggliest
ego––
perhaps,
in the world––
inflated beyond
comparison––
an ego craving
power & popularity––
absolutely
His
he is the mother-
source of fake-news––
the umbilical of
gossip
he swaggers above
the common wealth––
bilking his
partners to bankruptcy
every time He
blunders
his supporters––
His Base––
believe in
Him Alone
to save them––
their super man,
their savior, their
demagogue––
with all their hearts,
& egos & souls
they lost their
voices to shame &
their jobs to the
future––
as they stalled to
rusting
they needed the
Superest Hero to restore
their tribe to
GREATNESS
they needed
enemies to
BLAME––
they needed to
DESTROY the
democracy they
cursed for failing
them––
they needed addictive
LIES––
to give them
hope
& lo, donald j. TRUMP
appeared as an avenging
MACHISTE––
to say things
like they are with his
mouth––
to punish the
wicked with his
fists––
resisting truth &
rationality
as best
HE can
