Why Trump?

For the last six years
I have been trying

The greatest President ever.

I  just don’t...

I wanna be forever free

Who lived in storied Jericho.
He gave the people scant relief; 
His stature and regard were low.

I took what I wanted and left you only...

I took a trip through hell.
Not to visit but to settle a debt.
Actually, I just visited a different part of hell,
One I wasn’t familiar with,
Having spent a great deal of my life

Lo! The universe
How primordial beauty! 
Mankind is superior in style and activity
Different in size, shape, color

…degrading me to downfall’s detriment
…deterring my determination...
