When Will This Madness End For Poem a Thon 2018

2007 How Much I Despise You 2007 How Much I Despise You 2017 How Much I despise You Following 2016 the second worst year ever Will 2018 be any better ? And what we have suffered The darkness settles on the land Like a curse on the land As our mad demented senile dotard king wannabe Struts about the worlds stage Ushering Americas inevitable decline April 2, Has America Gone Mad? America’s foes and friends wonder Has America gone mad Turing over ultimate power to this man A con man narcistic criminal Self proclaimed smartest man in the room In reality a clueless reality TV hustler Whose sell by date has expired As he tries to make America great again For white Christian men April 2 American Life and Death As American struggles To cope with the ever declining standard of living The 1 percent loved the stock market Love the dismantling of the regulatory state The corporate tax cuts and the coming plunder of the land Can Disney Yellowstone be the future? As America declines Back to the future April 2 Heading Back to the Past While the rest of the world Embraces the energy of the future Our great denier of the truth Wants to boldly take America back To the 19th century era of oil, and coal Yet perhaps it does not matter in the end As long as we have one another We will overcome The darkness will flee the land April 2 When Will this Darkness End As the darkness settles down on the land All are consumed with evil Foul deeds and endless darkness I wonder if it will ever go away Yes I wonder if our great nightmare will ever end Are we doomed to live out the decline of America? This is what I pray for 2018 The end of the darkness that consumes our land
