May You Live In Interesting Times

This curse, ancient China, seems apt for today
Just think, we’re it Hillary President now
Would Dems. have prevailed in the midterms this way
And captured the House? I most certainly doubt

Trump’s made our times interesting if nothing else
He’s done lots of damage and trampled our norms
And we’ve had to live with the cards we were dealt
His ego, his lawlessness, lies and his storms

The cup’s not half empty, it’s really half full
Dem’s turnout this midterm was larger by far
Than it’s been for decades, so let’s not be fooled
Trump spurred us to join in political war

Our big test is coming just two years away
To maintain our fervor and build on our gains
To rescue the White House and Senate that day
These interesting times will have not been in vain
