Be Afraid!

Be Afraid!

 

 

I've heard it said by someone they're tired of America having to be

politically-correct all the time--but it seems to me

 

there's being politically-incorrect, and just being a rude dick,

and Trump is not only politically-incorrect, his sick,

 

vile, ludicrous a*sertions have taken hate to a new low.

From making fun of the disabled, to just saying no

 

to anything that would help the poor get a leg up.

No, he believes what they need is a good wallop

 

upside their lazy-a*s heads--after all, take him for example,

he got rich by being ruthless, and those are only a sample

 

of the bullshit hate that he spews from his face-hole.

But some people don't seem to give a s**t--in poll after poll,

 

he's still leading--forget him, what does that say about us?

do we want to live in a country of piss on you neighbor--of being blameless?

 

All our troubles are somebody else's fault--we'll blame somebody different,

"That guy's the cause, they're living in the penthouse, and I'm in the basement."

 

Apparently, it's much easier to cast foreigners as the bad guy,

and not ourselves, at least in part--yeah they're the whole reason why!

 

I thought America was about equality, fairness, and compassion,

but instead, inequality, greed, and hatred are the fashion,

 

according to more than a few--I shudder to think

we're perilously close to a new dawn, we're on the brink

 

of a new stark reality, one of 'I got mine, and the hell with you!'

I hate to think it, but if his kind's elected, we're all getting screwed!

While comical this piece sheds light on the complete disarray that our country is in. This really is a fantastic expression of frustration. I applaud your work.
