(20 minute poetry)

This
is what the brave
'New World'
is all about

Trump clumps in
and
Obama tramps out

not looking forward
but
backward

sometimes so glad that
I'm a coward and can cower
in some corner cupboard.

At some future date when I
can relate to these current
events
I might begin to understand
how the land of the free
tied itself up
in knots.
