What will be left?

Abecedarian President

A matter for our time Black people dying in the streets Caucasians confused by the issues Deaths uncounted and building Emperor with no clothes emerging untruthfully from our White House Filling the air with violence and the sounds of our possible future Gassing and pummeling the peaceful in the park Herod the Not Great walking with orange pinched face Impunity present in his arrogant stride Just for a moment, the world is silenced by his Knowingly and unlawfully creating more disruption and distraction Leaving all who watch in shock and awe at his unbalanced Mental state, now on display for the world to see Nothing emerging from that tiny, self centered mind Other leaders would use this time to calm and reassure People that our hopes and dreams for a united republic aren’t Quickly slipping though the fences around our Constitutional rights while Republican leaders, too scared and won’t stand up to their King because Steak and potatoes are being served in the Senate dining room while Thousands of unemployed are forced to eat boiled potatoes and Ramen United we must stand against the enemy within who uses lies and deceit Veracity and dialogue must generate a soulful re-connection between White, black, law and order, justice, and our real leaders, and Xenelasy must be stopped and reversed before more die, while Young ones are separated from their parents. . . Zealotry has no place in my homeland, where all are supposed to be free.
