Escaping Trump

Escaping Trump 
They tell me the apartment I live in is posh
has three toilets and double locking doors
Each apartment has a garage in the basement
a quite murky place with rust-splattered walls
I'm sure Salazar used the place and
His secret police, one can assume, the rust is
human suffering.
Lately, many Americans have moved it to
the expensive flats on the top floors.
They appear as migrants fleeing from tyranny 
reluctant to open doors to the food delivery 
If he looks, sort of Mediterranean human 
As I said to no one in particular, I have never
seen so many Quiet Americans
