To the men who elected Trump this time, you just sacrificed any chance at paradise (sadly). 
Poets create verses about Eden
And why not? Shining wonders can be made
In this paradise of green garden shade
Like the most beautiful blondes from Sweden
But when wealth reeks like an opium den
Causing visions of fair maidens to fade
Each letter’s the type to join a tirade
Of mad words drafted with reluctant pen
Conscripted lines of iambic footmen
Bid a font farewell to their loving trade
These rhymes in retrograde orbit cascade
Against injustice which rises again
Position of the universe is right
For syllables to show a little fight
