Consumption

Cough and he will show us
POTUS halitosis 
oil and conquest focus
his loyalty is bogus
when what they do not notice 
sows tuberculosis

Glad to be able to comment of your poem. Your disgust for the snake-oil salesman seems totally justified. He gives an illusion of defeating others, while in fact his ultimate goal involves his own wealth and that of his very rich supporters. You did a great service to those of us who share the same air!

The fact that he’s muzzled the CDC amid a tuberculosis outbreak in Kansas, on top of bird flu, and his followers believing he is looking out for them, just boggles my mind. Thank you so much Duke. I’m delighted to be heard, tho obviously I write to get it out of inside me lest I explode ;), xomo
