If I'd Known Then...!

If I'd Known Then...!

A Poem by Michael Stevens
"

Looking back, and wishing!

"
Doris Kearns Goodwin penned the 'Team of Rivals' book,

well, would, 'Team Of Losers' make you give it a 

second look?


We're forsaken; Mitt, George? Where art either of 

thou?

You'd be 100 times better than what we're stuck with 

now.


Little did I ever think I'd be wishing you two back,

for I thought there couldn't be a bigger disaster, but 

the facts



on the political ground tell me how wrong I was.

Because its sucked; "sucked is as sucked does!'


No fricking idea about what the hell that's supposed 

to mean,

except we're stuck with the biggest unfunny joke 

we've ever seen.


And the joke's on us, waiting in trepidation, for the 

s**t to hit the fan.

We're being lead to our doom by a miniature brained 


baby man,


who gets all his news, apparently from the back of 

his hair dye box,

but then again that would be more accurate than 

Breitbart or Fox


The world's first 70 year old 5th grader; yes, the 

world is the shiny set of keys,

jangled in front of his eyes to get his attention; a 

golden chance for him to seize


the reins of power; we looked away for just a 

second, and our crazy drunk

uncle moved in, and now he won't leave; destroying 

our stuff, who'd of thunk?

And not in the basement, the penthouse is where he 

rules the roost,

He's like my worst nightmare becoming fact, our 

head's in his noose,


common sense and reason both hanging from the 

ceiling beam,

their neck's snapped like a chicken; yes, he's the 

head of 'The Loser Team!'
