Trumps America

Chocking down sugar From the hands of a broken system Slitting my wrist In a vain existential tryst Painting skies of rust Watching as America crumbles to dust The religious are the worst The holy are a joke Poking politicians with a sharpened stick Rocking the boat Pouring buckets of water over the faces of the blind Screaming at the top of my lungs to no avail America is doomed or so it seems Only a matter of time You say I'm a criminal What's my crime?
