Notes About The Poem

Dragons Dragonflies Huffle Winks

The unbelievable did happen
Much to everyone's dismay
Dragons, Dragonflies and Huffle-Winks
Lost to Republicans Election Day

They blamed it on Russians
Faked reports of collusion
Spent huge amounts of money
Nothing came of their delusionmo

Officially elected
To fix what was a mess
Republicans got busy
And ignored all the rest

Vast historical changes
Less welfare in years
Countries praising the USA
Music to Trump's ears

Deep-stated shananigans
Started coming back to haunt
They had accused Republicans
Of their own criminal jaunts

It was evident to all
Huffle-Winks, Dragons and Dragonflies 
That Republicans were still winning
Despite innuendos and lies

The moral of this story...
Exactly what you would think
Dragons, Dragonflies and Huffle-Winks
Are becoming extinct

Sadly, the dreamers are disappearing in this ridiculous world where minds cannot meet to help the citizens of this country. Great way to attack the challenge, Susan!
