We almost went to war last night
Against Iran; our ships, our planes
Were on their way to start the fight
Trump launched the raid in clear disdain
Of Constitution’s prohibition
Not to start a foreign war
Without Congress’s permission
Stating what we’re fighting for
The raid was canceled, minutes on
Trump later claimed; his message passionate,
Since they had downed an unmanned drone
This would be viewed as disproportionate
A war was close; this time averted
But all the problems still remain
Trump can’t be trusted, stay alerted
Or he’ll do it once again
