never thought
we’d ever see
a defilement
of our democracy
by a racist felon
and sycophant ‘friends’
using our country
for their evil ends
they’ve trashed our ideals
spit on neighbors and friends
embarrassed our nation
now their chapter ends
take them away
by law, by soldier, by gun
the liar-in-chief and
his fascist minions are on the run
never thought
we’d ever see
this great perversion
of our presidency

Thank you so much for keeping me on the list to receive your amazing poetic accomplishments. I do love receiving them, and somehow feeling connected to my dear, kind friend! Think of you often, and all of your travels and travails. Hope you are both well and happy! Jude
