Trump Became An Acolyte

each poem did edit
only fool received credit
had to regret it

poems lacked a verb
many poets may disturb
ate horrible herb

what he did in spite
Trump became an acolyte
are afraid with freight

heard Trump in choir
voice became higher and higher
always a liar

we laughed with much mirth
take this for what it is worth
worst show on this earth

Thought of these haiku while
watching MSNBC this morning.
Wish there were more positive
things to listen to.

Enjoyed your poem, James. You are so correct in your labeling Trump a liar. I am a happier person for NOT watching the news! I can't change what is going on in the world, but I can vote to try to change the direction of our country. And I will!

I tend to tune out as the political battlefield has become a war of hatred from each side, neither being exactly right.
