Jake Aller Poet Free verse

Smartest Man In the World

our dear leader
claims he is the smartest
man in the world
a stable genius
has good words
knows more than generals
knows more than doctors
should have been a doctor
only he can fix
what ails the world
for he is the greatest
genius in the world
like his  friend the dear leader of North Korea
but in fact he is among the most stupid men
to ever serve as our President

Jan Allison April 7, 2020 at 1:05 AM Jake your final two lines end the poem perfectly - he thinks he's indestructible like 'captain scarlet' hence the reason he has no need for a mask or gloves - like the virus knows who he is so he won't get it. of course it's a perfect example of 'do as I say but not as I do. take care:-) hugs Jan xx
