No King’s! Day of defiance Reject authoritarianism tyrants Billionaire-first politics hypocrisy Then militarization of the country’s democracy Protests to counter the Army’s 250th anniversary Trump ratcheted up as a slammiversary As though a wrestler’s match Performing is his big ego and a king’s vanity Ratcheted down is our humanity The show, an expensive lavish military parade This is very low, designated to degrade Featuring hundreds of military vehicles, aircraft And thousands of soldiers, resembles a 60’s draft It’s also his 79th birthday and Flag Day The flag doesn’t belong to President Trump, not today! It belongs to us “No Kings”
On June 14th, we’re showing up everywhere he isn’t To say no thrones, no crowns, no kings!
RIP Melissa Hortman Her assassin (the coward) “Politically motivated” cop uniformed in a bogus cop car still at large BECAREFUL PROTESTERS! <3

Anaya, it was quite a day. Shows a lot of opposition to tyranny in the USA. However, as we know, autocrats like D.T. know how to steal back the spotlight. I think that may be the actual reason we've dropped bombs on another country. It's a publicity stunt. We're in big trouble. Take care and love your poem. Smiles!

Hi Anaya, 74 views and you’re the only commenter, I think people are wary of going public with their opinions on politics on this site. Btw, you were right on the cliques.Take care, Richard

This is dedicated to all protesters on this day, June 14th, and in all 50 States! "NO KINGS" Protests Underway! We shall NOT celebrate you, King Don although we PAID for it! In a Monarchy the King is the Law, in a Democracy Law is King. We are Not here to celebrate the Power, but the Power of the People! Right On! we are protesting today at the corner park~ see ya
