Notes About The Poem

I can't vote, but I'm excited - and scared - Just think, and end to Trump lies may be in sight and no more tweets  =]


 

The Speech

Everything was dull,
you know? Another dark and
dull pandemic week.

But now: OH, MY GOD, 
I'M SO EXCITED!! - I can
hardly eat or sleep!!

Gloomy clouds of doom
dissipated when I heard
our President's speech!

The pandemic's past
it's peak he said, it'll be over
by the election!

Two Days!! There will be
DATING SOON - I can scarcely
curb my elation!

I ran to find my
mom - she'll appreciate this
new revelation.

See - I'll need an all 
new wardrobe - we've a shopping
list to complete!"

"I need EVERYTHING
in two weeks - MY **GOD**, is there
even time to sleep???"

"Trump can't just make that
call" she said, (she knows, she's a
*doctor* after all)

"The President would
never miss-lead us, there are
peoples LIVES at stake!"

"And the people would
would remember, it's on the
news for heaven's sake!"

"Besides, if he
lies and people die - it's a
crime not a mistake!"
