Notes About The Poem

The Great Ejection of 2021

Welcome to America, the land of reality TV
We have pixie dust and unicorns and the dreaded killer bees
The epic climax of 2020 has now reached its end
But here comes 2021, hold my beer dear friend

The new year will start with a mighty midweek hump
Stay tuned for the great ejection of Donald J. Trump
Will this man concede and leave the White House in one piece?
Will he have a temper tantrum or try to hide with his magic fleece?

We’re in the lull before the storm, it’s time to reload and take a break
Did Joe Biden actually win or will the Donald just call it fake?
Will he return in four more years or realize his time here is done?
Will he hold up in his ivory towers or just pack his bags and run?

This country is in a mess, so place your bets and roll your dice
We’ve had four years of snake eyes and many thinking we’re not that nice
Our land has many hitch hikers and our skies are full of thumbs.
They are not all criminals and losers and not all worthless bums

Four years of snake eyes and a forked tongue were four too many to divide our country. Valid points you've made, and a perfect cartoon with Lady Liberty shooting him out of a face mask sling!

I saw this picture on Facebook and just had to use it for a muse. I haven't watched the speech yet, I don't really care what he says as long as fart face has left the building.
