One No Trump
I must begin this sad narration
with these words of sad regret
for the state of our lost nation
that has lost that noble way
carefully planned in its gestation,
perfect in its founders’ minds,
but somehow skewed in maturation
by takeovers from the Trumpster set
led by an idiot’s vain oration!
The dVerse Poets Magic 9 prompt today was to write *a poem in 9 lines
*meter and line-length at discretion of poet
*rhyme, a b a c a d a b a, with c and d unrhymed
Go HERE to read other poems that followed the propt.

I like this so much that I don’t really have good grownup words to express my feelings! So how about, “you said it, Sister!” OMG, the abiity to put our disbelief, loathing, sadness and outrage into just 9 lines – that’s talent.
And, I love “Cheeto”.
Keep on writing, my friend, we need your sparkling sarcasm to try to say sane in a crazy, mix-up world.

Judy – I start each day reading Heather Cox Richardson which is a cross between riding a roller-coaster and a slow-motion car crash – I feel for America but for all of of us beyond your shores too, if he-who-shall-be-nameless gets back in…

I have become so discouraged with my fellow citizens who have fallen for this imposter. Hope for an awakening of reason dwindles.
