Why Crippled America

Why Crippled America? Any presidential nominee thus far, Anyone ever in long history’s past, Could’ve called America crippled, A high look upon disability to cast. Disability is now curable sometimes, And healthcare stands sturdily tall, As a nation’s proudest profession, As our greatest step and tribal call. So the analogy to disability power, The relationship of doctor/patient, Could be used by any great politician, To explain his policies and argument. But I believe that any candidate knows, To deliberately dismiss this slogan, To in determination bypass disability, As a succinct method of explanation. It’s what goes to make a man great, A politician tick and get it right, A women see the good and justice, Of the Syrian migrant’s plight. So Trump should be sued, slammed, By disabled people in a law court case, For debasing their physiognomy, For knifing their contributive face. He does not pertain to disabled people, Now, after all of that in any way, And if you are aware of disability, Then don’t give him the time or day.
