Of Donkeys and Elephants, Part V, Zugzwang
Zugzwang
It's psychopathy versus narcissism,
our big decision for twenty-sixteen!
Which pathology is best, or isn’t,
What fell pass led to this dismal ravine?
The Donald, his rich dad’s favorite son.
Wheeler-dealer, Reality TV.
Born on third, it’s not much of a home run.
“This is GREAT! Everyone’s looking at ME!”
Our other choice, with pending indictment,
She's more crooked than a barrel of snakes.
There’s no end to the Clinton excitement
and pseudo-empathic concern so fake.
Unless each other as VP they choose,
The only good thing is that one must lose!
