E Pluribus Unum

...inspired by 'To The President-Elect' by Joseph Brodsky You've reached the pinnacle of fame where double-speak's a daily game, so many words, so little meaning, popinjay, so skilled at preening. Posing for a photo-op your perfect hair a puissant crop, your perfect smile, a frozen glare which fools the foolish everywhere. Demagoguery designed to derogate the keener mind, a smile may hide what lies behind but mark the downfall of your kind.
