Long Det Poems

Nu det Nuuk

In Denmark and Greenland,
Red baseball caps say,
“Nu det Nuuk!” which is roughly
“Make America Go ‘Way!”

They’re sported at protests
And modeled on those
Worn by MAGA supporters,
Most normal folks’ foes.

The Danish translation,
“Enough is enough”
Is intended to be
A gigantic rebuff.

For America’s “leader”
Has crassly announced
That Greenland should be his
‘Cause his Nobel was trounced.

Since this overwrought bully,
Who violates rules,
Has his tantrums in public,
We all look like fools.

But in Greenland and Denmark,
The message is clear:
“Take your bluster and swagger
And get out of here!”
