Trump Card
Can we let one single man
bring down a nation so strong
Every choice and decision he makes
is laced with deception and wrong
We will never have peace in America
with an egomaniacal, despot in place
This is America people, rise up
and return our nation to its grace
Not only is ugly on the rise every day,
but a wall is all he has on his mind
He wants what he wants, at any cost,
ways to defeat us, he will always find
Think of the little children, torn
from loving arms and kept in cells
Can they every recover from the agony
of a president's selfish, heinous hells
Death rides on his shoulder, devils
ride on horses with his likeness added
Expense accounts are hidden well
and always find themselves well padded
Economy is in jeopardy, can the poor
survive to find sustenance to keep alive
Some of us go to bed, hunger clawing
at our beings, will the weak and ill survive
Election time is when you need to stand
and mark another name on the ballot sheet
Be brave and smart America, do what's right
or I promise, the devil will rise again to greet
