Myeshia Johnson, grieving mother
Mother of La David T.
Killed in Niger with three others
Time for all to let her be
General Kelly also grieving
For his son lost in Afghan.
It’s hard and hard beyond perceiving
Left for war, not coming back
The General’s strong soliloquy
Explained Trump’s clumsy messaging
Since Trump’s devoid of empathy,
His words all had a hollow ring
Rep. Wilson, Dem, was in the car
When Mrs. Johnson took Trump’s call
Trump’s flippant tone, her senses jarred
And told the Press what she recalled
The President denied he said
What Johnson quoted him to state
And called her liar to her head.
Black women he can’t tolerate
But General Kelly stole the show
By fabricating from thin air
A tale of Johnson false, not so
With video proof that’s o’contrare
It saddens me to realize
A four-star General, a Marine
Would, like his boss, resort to lies
We thought “adult”; no longer seen
