A Litany of Lies

Cometh the hour
Cometh the man,
So came the hour,
His fiasco began.

A litany of lies
Spew from his mouth,
Any leadership qualities
Swiftly went south.

Hubris in spades
But cannot comprehend,
What his people need
He seems quite round the bend.

So what to do
Well we do what we must,
Move forward with hope
For in God we trust.
