GET LOST, DONALD TRUMP!

By Joan Wile

A poem to hopefully encourage all to Dump Trump from our political landscape

::::::::

DONALD TRUMP, I'VE GOT NEWS FOR YOU
THOUGH YOU SEE YOURSELF AS PRESIDENT
NEW YORKERS HAVE A DIFFERENT VIEW
WE THINK YOU'RE MERELY DECADENT

WE GOTHAMITES ARE GETTING TIRED
OF HEARING YOU KVELL AND BRAG AND BOAST
WE'D LIKE TO SAY TO YOU, "YOU'RE FIRED!
WE'VE HAD ENOUGH...TO US YOU'RE TOAST!"

STICK TO YOUR MONOLITHIC EYESORES
BUILD ANOTHER GLITZY GAMBLING HOUSE
SEE IF YOUR TV SHOWS GET HIGH SCORES
STRUT YOUR LATEST TROPHY SPOUSE

JUST DON'T SCARE US BY RUNNING FOR OFFICE
DON'T THREATEN TO BE OUR HEAD OF STATE
THERE COULD NEVER BE ANY SOLACE
IF SUCH WERE TO BE OUR AWFUL FATE

INSTEAD, FADE INTO OBSCURITY
YOU'RE JUST AN HISTORICAL BUMP
NOW YOU KNOW FINALLY AND SURELY
WE THINK YOU'RE A REPULSIVE LUMP
IN SHORT, WE DECLARE...DUMP TRUMP!
