Notes About The Poem

This is the 5th of 11 limericks in eleven days about D.T. and his vision for autocracy. In order to reach Dick Tator status, he needs future national elections go his way even as he becomes more and more unpopular. He'll do whatever it takes to realize his narcissistic dreams. BTW, there has been virtually no evidence of voter fraud in court. 

the paper scapegoat

This issue concerns mail-in-votes
It’s rigged says Dick Tator who gloats
Fair counting is in
Only if I win
And upon me everyone dotes
