What the **** is Cuck?
It’s a brand new ***** word
If you’ve been called a cuck
You should know that you’ve been slurred

You may have come across it
While browsing the Interweb
And seen it used insultingly
When describing a Bush called Jeb

It’s short for the old word Cuckhold
But given a new spin
It’s used to insult someone who’s committed
the Political Correctness sin.

If I may be declarative,
The word is simply horrible,
Be ye liberal or conservative
I’d say it’s quite deplorable

The Donald is no cuck, for sure
When he utters dog whistles like this -
If he says “blood comes out of her ‘whatever’”
The true meaning you just can’t miss

Or when he said the Second Amendment People
Might take care of our dear Hillary
Of whom he impugned would eliminate guns
And promised that he would pillory

Apologies are for sissies
Don’t wait for a pivot or turn
Was it voter suppression that rigged the election?
One day, we may learn

Cuck is the word of the day
Like some chirp made by Pepe the Frog
A new epithet from the far alt-right
Who follow our new demagogue

Have you heard of the word
That sounds like the squeak
One would make from your beak
If you had one? It’s fleek!

If you say, “She’s on fleek,”
With eyebrow perfection
She needs no correction
In shape and in peak

Now anything’s on fleek
That’s on point and ideal
From skateboards to hash browns
In taste, look or feel

It’s about 2 years old
That’s antique in webspeak
And now that you know it,
You’re part of the clique

It sounds like a combo
Of flawless and sleek
Neither Latin nor Greek
Still not sure if it’s chic

We used to say hot,
Or da bomb, or pristine.
If on fleek is passe’,
Just say, “yaasss, Queen!”
