A new lap dog
I've been replaced by a lap dog~at least it's cute,
Its poppy brooch glows bright on its dainty neck.
It yaps and leaps, and like me, its poops pollute,
But could it endure a long and rugged trek?
I’d wager it’d fail~a weary, broken wreck.

With a Big Brooch
With a Big Brooch
Who should fro President try to run?
Who won't surprise us and try to stun
Us into believing you are the best
We will love forever and never detest.
To me, this may become quite a chore
Trying to be someone you do adore

Forget about being a pack of lies.
