Notes About The Poem

This is my take on people, such as Trump, who argue and shout till their view is the final view heard regardless of how wrong, racist, sexist, bigoted, unfair or cruel it may seem.

Funny Wrong Right

I wish the things that once were right, 
Stayed right and didn’t become wrong,
I wish the wrong had just gone away, 
And the right was right all along,

But wrong really wanted to be the right, 
It pushed right right out of the way,
So now the new right, which is the old wrong, 
Is the right on full public display.
