Month: July 2021

Oh say can you see
By the TV’s bright light
What so loudly is hailed
There on Fox News now streaming?

Whose big lies my mind jars
Almost every damn night
As transfixed there I watched
Like a nightmare I’m dreaming?

I see Trump in the glare
His eyes on me they stare
Though it’s late in the night
It’s enough to me scare

Oh say will Trump’s lies make democracy cave
Lest we wake and we act to democracy save

Today, the semiversary of the insurrection
Where Trump supporters stormed our nation’s Capital
Their goal: to steal the President’s election
It was defeated- blood and death, survivors in the hospital

But then the Lie took root that Donald Trump had really won
And spread like rumors all throughout his base
Republican state legislatures passing laws to have undone
Results of votes they didn’t want to face

So now to be a candidate supported by the R.N.C.
For posts that have a say on our elections
You must admit, if poll results turn out unfavorably
You’d do whatever needed for more favorable selections

On this the semiversary of that fateful day
We see the insurrection still proceeding
Undermining our democracy in legislative ways
And we must act to keep it from succeeding
