A while it’s been since last I wrote a poelitic poem
It’s zero, not because there’s nothing worth to write
Both Don and Elon issuing bad orders out of sight
And I preoccupied have been with issues of my own
Things not normally newsworthy taking on new life
A tariff war with former trading partners escalating
Key firings and massive layoffs, government mis-functioning
Plus real-time, secret military actions publicized
All levels of the courts have busy been like bumblebees
Striking down Trump’s orders; Constitutional they’re not
And on and on, day after day the news runs cold and hot
I really feel for cablers who choose from what they see
An underlying pattern in the news though details differ
Trump tests his base to ferret out dissent wherever ‘tis
He takes the action; raising outrage, Dems. against what is
Courts then reject it, causing chaos. Trump then tries it stiffer
And so, dear reader, thank you for your patience and support
It’s my intention to continue once my issues are resolved
Then I’ll concentrate on details, how I would the problem solve
Until that time I wish you well. It’s been my pleasure, been my sport
