Dear Donald, Again

I fear you cast yourself in lights too grand
and powerful.

Is it not enough
to acknowledge this legal investigation
of whether you have intended to use your limited powers
for obstructing justice,
fairness,
equity?

You go too far
casting yourself as a witch
hunted for misuse of powers
intended for promoting justice,
fairness,
ecological equity.

Donald Trump,
you are merely President
by minority vote;
you are no hunted witch.

Except, of course,
within your own alternatively factual universe.

But Loretta Lynch can tell, not ask, but tell Comey to call the investigation into Hilary's illegal actions a "matter" at the request (demand) of Bill and Hilary and that is ok? Where is all of the whining about that? Is this thing on? Nicely written by the way, I just wish we could all get along.
