Trump's Fairytales

 


Good afternoon children
I am so happy to be here
for story hour.

 

Today, I am going to recite to you
from the book of
Trump's Fairytales.

 

Once upon a time
Trump inherited a Goldilocks economy
from Biden
but decided to play reverse Robin Hood
he's robbing from the poor
and giving to the rich through 
tax cuts and tariffs.

 

The Dow tripped over his tariffs
plunged down a rabbit hole
and bonked its head
all the way to Wonderland.

 

Mad as a hatter
Trump tears at the economy

leaving only crumbs
for Hansel and Gretel.

 

The recession president
Should have asked
Geppetto to assemble his cabinet.

 

Trump appointed a
pro-measles Secretary of Health
who would trade the magic beans
for a plague
a Secretary of Education who
shuttered the schoolhouse doors
a National Security Advisor who
doesn't know how to secure and
a defensive Secretary of Defense.

 

But they are transparent as a glass slipper
all their secrets spilled online
passwords scribbled on
Cinderella's lost invitation.

 

This is what happens when
Fox News personalities
cosplay as government officials
strutting like the emperor's new clothes
naked arrogance on parade.

 

But, Trump knows nothing about Signalgate.
He flees accountability
faster than he fled the draft

a gingerbread man
sprinting from the oven of truth.
Run, run, fast as you can.

 

But Trump can
get away with anything
because like a greedy troll
he's eating the checks
he's eating the balances.

 

He's not
supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

He's a
super-callous
fascist, sexist
racist, Nazi, POTUS.

 

Trump's Fairytales
are grimmer than Grimm's.

 

We have to do something
before our country is
more broken than Humpty Dumpty.

The Red, White, and Green

  As a trucker this entire country was my home. But I don't recognize my home anymore. Hatred has spread from shore to shore it hasn't been this divided since the civil war. Trump wants to add a maple leaf to our flag. He wants to take the Panama Canal because why stop at controlling birth canals right?   We should change the word "school" to "uterus." Then maybe lawmakers will care about the children dying inside them.   Trump wants to buy Greenland and call it Red, White and Blue Land but he has dollar signs in his eyes.   With Trump and his billionaire vultures picking our pockets clean this country is no longer the Red, White and Blue it's the red, white and green.   He crams the Gulf of America down our throats and tells us he is turning Gaza into the Riviera of the Middle East.   He jingles his keys over here to distract us from what they're doing over there -----> Dismantling Democracy amputating the wings of the American eagle.   He's ...

Sept 11, 2001

It begins with a boom and a fireball wreckage rains, sirens race   black smoke billows.  Papers float like confused confetti looking for a parade.  How many people cry out to God  when they see a second plane hit  the phallus of American capitalism?   Eyes glued, mouths open we watch people jump helpless to help them. Then comes a roar  louder than Niagara. Day turns to night  in lower Manhattan. A hole in the sky  a tomb of three thousand.  Those who can't outrun the rushing cloud  duck into delis and lobbies the towers in their eyes and lungs.     Cars covered in ash broken windows and stray shoes. Everything else either  blown out or burned up.  Fire trucks and firemen  buried in debris. People covered in dust struggle to breathe.  The fright in their faces  still haunts me.

Claustrofornia

Claustrofornia Confined between the Sierra and the ocean smog pollutes my head. Movie star politicians break promises from quaking platforms.  Living out of Starbucks                             venti caramel macchiato with soy milk, two pumps hold the caramel in a carryout cup labeled “HOT.” Glamour glides down red carpets and people hug redwoods.  Can you feel the love?  Armies of leased diesels jam traffic driven by windshield warriors phones growing out of their ears. Shallow dreams and deep debts keep BMW's humming down highways. Money throws its voice around people just move their mouths and dangle from greedy strings. Seas of illegal blondes in designer thongs nourish eating disorders. When the Valley Girls grew up the Galleria was washed up fresh fashions forever show up and not even the Joneses can keep up! Still they build, and people pour into shopping malls and health clubs- neon grocer...
