Once Trump is Back



What’s happening and what can we expect?
Delusional the President that was
Believing he’s the President that is;
That Biden has usurped the POTUS role
The Presidential mantle Biden stole
His title’s false which no one should respect

And thirty million Trumpers take his word
As gospel, truly everything he says
Their patriotic duty’s to find ways
To put Trump back as Pres. where he belongs
Back in the White House righting Biden’s wrongs
‘Twill soon be time to act; their loins to gird

Trump thinks in August he’ll be reinstated
But what will happen when that won’t take place
A storming of the White House all will face
With weapons blazing clearing Biden out
A full fledged coupe is what they’ll bring about
Oath Keepers and the Proud Boys delegated

One doesn’t have to be a brilliant Einstein
To see where Trump’s delusions likely lead
They’re planning now because they must succeed
Great patriots they are, Trump’s soldiers true
Whatever Trump commands they’re sure to do
Once Trump is back their country will be fine

Five and Thirty



‘‘Twas fifty four to thirty five, the yeas against the nays
You’d think the yeas would have it; right?
But Congress sees a different sight
By them the nays have clearly won
It is the way the Senate runs
They do as Mitch McConnell says

The worst in all our history, Trump’s mob’s reviled attack
Against our nation’s Capital
Their goal was insurrectional
To thwart our core democracy
Replace it with autocracy
Believing Trump’s Big Lie and not the facts

The vote: for an autonomous bipartisan commission
To get the truth on what took place
But truth for some’s too hard to face
Republicans, most voted nay
All hypocrites in what they say
And to the cult of Trump they’re in submission

So what are Democrats to do, a cloture vote needs sixty?
They could outlaw the filibuster
Fifty votes they’d have to muster;
Manchin and Sen. Sinema, however,
Both decline that rule right now to sever
So, five and thirty votes beats four and fifty

Liz Chaney 2



‘Twas last week I said that Liz Chaney was out
Today they made it official
It wasn’t my prescience; there wasn’t a doubt
The Party thought it beneficial
But Liz isn’t quitting
She’s just begun hitting
Those Trump lovers sitting
Supporting Trump’s lies

Today I would say don’t count Liz Chaney out
Today she is freer than ever
To stand her ground wielding her self righteous clout
Embracing her latest endeavor
Her Party to rescue
From Trumpism’s venue
For if it continues
Democracy dies

Liz Chaney



Republican leader, Liz Chaney is out
Her role in the House she’ll no longer reside
And what did she do that has brought this about
She broadcast the truth about Donald’s Big Lie

Now Liz is as right wing as Congressmen get
As old-time Republican policies go
She’s hardly a moderate, that said and yet
They voted her out, though the truth they all know

They fear if they don’t do what Donald Trump says
In spite of the fact that they know he’s despicable
They’d lose reelection the way his game plays
Such fate, to these Congressmen, truly unthinkable

The Party that once was the proud G.O.P.
That once upheld policies rightly conservative
Has lost all its relevance toward bills to be
Its standing diminished on matters deliberative

The Lying Disease



Wildly contagious, the lying disease
Among the Republican Congress throughout
And too, right wing media, lying to please
The Trumplican diehards, to keep them devout

They trump up their fictions deliberately
About what Joe Biden is saying, has said
And, too, the election, felicitously
That Trump was the winner. The Big Lie is fed

And all through the country red states still, we note,
Adhere to the fiction that Trump’s role persists
They’re passing state laws to inhibit the votes.
Of non-white communities where they exist

So where are our loyal opponents of these days
And what is their platform; for what do they stand?
They fabricate issues, false narratives played
And blame them on Biden whom they reprimand

Their efforts are feckless they’re all doomed to fail
On Joe Biden’s programs they can’t lay a glove
They try to besmirch him but to no avail
He’s winning people with truth and with love

Guilty, Guilty, Guilty



May twenty fifth, a year ago
George Floyd had died of over stress
Handcuffed resisting his arrest
Cop, Derek Chauvin said ‘twas so

Like others many times before
His lies were there to be believed
He’d get off free, what he achieved
Another Nigger ain’t no more

Darnellla Frazier witnessing
Of Derek’s knee on George Floyd’s neck
She, on her smart phone did collect
A vid of Chauvin’s murdering

And published it all on Facebook
It changed the course of history’s tide
Caused demonstrations huge, worldwide
While Congress took a deeper look

Today it all came to a head
Court verdict: guilty, all three counts
Relief from overwhelming doubt
Justice served this time, instead

Congrats to all participants
The. lawyers, witnesses, police
George Floyd can finally rest in peace.
In spite of these developments

The racist problem still remains
It’s nurtured through a mother’s milk
With attitudes that cause no guilt
Immune to how a person’s trained

Suggestion: just a simple one,
Along with barring choking holds
For cops whose duty is patrol
Equip with tasers but no guns

Deep prejudices will be there
For some who have policing skills
Reduce the means by which to kill
Then blacks of cops need not beware

A Shining City


The Trump no longer worries me
His relevance diminishing
Except that he keeps weakening
The remnants of the G.O.P.

They stand for naught in what they do
Suppressing votes is all they know
Of Blacks and Browns; to make it so
That they might win in twenty two

The Party’s just an empty shell
They’ve lost the skill for governance
They send Democracy askance
The G.O.P. ‘s got naught to sell

The old Republicans are leaving
Businesses no longer paying
Former leaders now are saying
Change! But no one’s there receiving

I think that what the future holds,
My guess, by twenty twenty eight
There’ll be a fulsome candidate
Her Party new derived from old

A Shining City on the hill
Conservatism old but new
Constrains just what the gov can do
And listens to the peoples’ will

Green Eggs…

Apologies to Dr. Seuss

I do not like the G O P
I do not like them, what they be
To tell the truth they always lie
Democracy with them will die
Their House, a curse
Their Senate’s worse
I do not like the way they work
State legislatures gone berserk
They legislate to stay in power
Democracy a wilting flower
I kid you not
A core of rot
Toward oligarchy they aspire
Forever them is their desire
I do not like the G O P
With them this country won’t be free
What can we do?
What must we do?
Take to the streets and demonstrate
Denounce the bills they legislate
Make your voice heard. You have the clout
And at the polls vote all them out

I’m Not a Racist



I’m not a racist, but I know that really whites are best
The blacks, you know, the niggers,
They’re barely just above the apes
The Mexicans, they steal, they rape
And Jews? Good God, go figure!
They’re worse than all the rest!

I mean, we really are supreme
It’s in our genes, our nature
We truly are the race most fit
To be on top, king’s throne to sit,
To rule the people of this nation
It’s our goal; it’s not a dream

Trump was our man; he understood
That blacks and browns are gaining ground
They multiply like raunchy hares
Us whites we have to be aware
That to majority they’re bound
They’re up to something no damn good!

And Biden, white, but what an ass!
His cabinet he’s filled with Jews
And chinks and reds and God knows who
And God knows what they’ll try to do
Trump is the rightful ruler, true
I’ll do my worst to bring him back!

A Day of Contrast



The rescue bill’s a done, done deal; it will be signed come Friday
The Dems have breached beyond belief; it is their pie-in-sky day
So popular is this one bill, Republicans embrace it
Except for those in Congress who would all like to erase it

I’m happy for the Everyman and Woman who’ve been struggling
I’m happy for the kids in schools whose learning has been troubling
I’m happy for the children who’ll be lifted out of poverty
So many good things in this bill, it truly is a novelty

Concurrent with my joy I’m saddened by Republicans
Who only know to answer NO to bills I’d deem imperative
They have no platform, things they’re for, ‘cept tax cuts for the wealthy
The way they plan to win elections is by means unhealthy

Unhealthy for democracy, unhealthy for the nation
Red states are passing laws that limit voter registration
And laws that make it hard to vote which target populations
Black and brown, all Democrats. They pass them with elation

They bow to Trump, bereft they are of policies for people
Embracing white supremacy, they dwell in ivory steeples
Pontificating emptily, their oath of office broken
Their tipsy towers are caving in, the GOP’s forsaken
