Great Poetry

[Brian37]

President Mumpsimus, By Brian37 (AKA Brian James Rational Poet on FB and @brianrrs37 on twitter).
 
Oompa Loompa 
Tax break scam
Emolument's Clause
Violate to enrich the fam
 
Bring back coal
Protect big oil
Mueller's going to be
Your final foil
 
President Cheeto
Is the man
Selling fear
To all his fans
 
"Rapists" and "terrorists"
Mere buzz words
"Identity politics"
Bought by the herd
 
Nonsense 
It's all absurd
Fear mongering bully
We're tired of
 
Fond of tyrants
Sell fear of migrants
It's all a distraction
Away from investigation
 
Just be sure
To attack the press
To distract away from
Your dangerous ignorance 
 
The social norms
He tries to sell
Are the pustulous values
Of bigoted swill
 
There are no good Nazis
No good KKK
He won't drag us back
To those old ways
 
And do not sell me
This bullshit crap
Billionaires will end up eating cat food
If we raise their tax
 
We're tired of 
The old cold war meme
Neither Cuba or Venezuela 
Do we aspire to be
 
Oompa Loompa
Ignores his own intel
Sucks up to tyrants
Isn't that swell?
 
The story to tell
Hubris will fail
When the sane speak up
To avoid such a needless  hell
 
(END)
 
Poem title inspired by Twitter user Mindy whom used the word "mumpsimus" in a recent post.
