We Did Not Take Action To Start a War

We Did Not Take Action to Start a War 

it is a sad day
in the world of ours
the the leader 
of the U.S.

is turning into a gangster leader
threatening massive destruction 
on Iran and other countries
including destroying cultural sites

not too long ago
such actions was condemned 
by the United States 
as long as ISIS and others did it

but if Trump does it
it is suddenly okay
although it is a war crime

and telegraphing our moves
telling our enemies
what we are planing

that is the act 
of a truly stable genius
who will go down 
in history

as one of the greatest presidents
we have ever 

and the president 
announcing that

that he  took action
to start a war 
but to stop a war

is a wonder to behold
every word is false
and everyone knows it

well we are now 
going down the Orwellian rabbit hole
and who know where it will end

as our dear leader
screws forth 
one lie after another

and our spineless leaders
applaud 
as American democracy dies
a thousand deaths
with every Presidential tweet
