Of course, it enrages
To see children in cages
At impressionable ages
In various stages
Whose parents seek asylum
In the land of the free
But wind up separated
Due to his policy

Zero tolerance
Is what it’s been named
But it’s his cruelty
That must be blamed
How many immigrants
Does he have to defamed
Before we start to hate
The ones that he has shamed

He’s a demigod
Make no mistake about it
And so, it’s very hard
For me to ever doubt it
He lacks empathy
For other people who
Come from other countries
And have a different hue

Some call him a racist
Though, I don’t make that claim
However, the true case is
He has earned that name
I judge him by his actions
Which are there to see
Whether  or not he’s a racist
Is a matter of degree
