Bill Barr once you wore quite a fine reputation
A former AG and a lawyer of merit
All that was veneer that has suffered oblation
We now see the real Barr and hardly can bear it
Where once institutions you used to protect
Now under the spell of the Trump we observe
A crass disregard where there once was respect
And neglect of the people whom you’re meant to serve
You relegate power to yourself alone
Deciding on whether a case should heard
And whom to investigate, what to condone
Where any/all actions require your word
You yesterday remanded recommendations
The case prosecutors for incarceration
Of one of Trump’s buddies in gross violation
Of Justice Department norms and its traditions
‘Twas clearly your motive to curry Trump’s favor
You’ve placed your department at Pres. Trump’s disposal
To punish his enemies, back his endeavors
No matter how lawless, there’d be no refusal
All four prosecutors resigned from the case
Protesting your action, your gross interference
The Justice Department your actions abase
Trump’s now a dictator; your letting him hence
