deconstructing the donald

i
if you open his mind
you’ll find no
nuance––

only clawing hammers, heavy
mallets, & battering
rams––

with soap-bubble hunches
floating all around

ii
a man without
a conscience is
more efficient
anyway––

can make decisions
faster
than a second-hand can
jump

iii
he plays economics
with a bowling
ball––

with countries,
corporations & people
for pins

iv
a businessman manages
outcomes––

a president manages
equations

v
a deal is a
transaction––

a treaty is a
relationship

vi
he’s an ego
sitting on a seesaw––

a moppy-haired man
who truly
believes his
scowling self-eminence
can out-balance
universities of
intellect, choruses of
faith, generals &
armies

vii
in any contest,
who can match
Him?

viii
WINNING is a
Bigly word––

fairness is for
chumps––

ix
plenty of rewards
for His Friends
& Family––

exile for those
opposed

x
let there be
happy days for the
chosen––

howling & gnashing
of teeth for all the
losers––

that’s just how it is
when
America’s Great
Again
