By: Cedric McClester Is the enemy of the people A free press? Or is it someone You might not have guessed Like a person Who nevertheless Is defined by His acts of excess Is the enemy of the people A free press Or a leader Who lacks largesse When it comes to Those he detests Mexicans, Muslims And the rest Is the enemy of the people A free press Or the leader Who’s like an abscess - tooth But I guess I digress Cos I had to get it Off of my chess Is the enemy of the people A free press Or a faux populist Of the noblesse Who promises more But gives less And whose childish impulses Are unsuppressed Cedric McClester, Copyright © 2017.  All rights reserved.
