I wanna know
What I havta do,
To wake up one morning
And start to think like you?
What does it take?
I don’t even have a clue
How you can hate someone
Based solely on their hue

I wanna know,
Why you hate immigrants
Like your in-laws and mother
I musta missed the hints
Or is it just the others
That provoke those sentiments
Shared by like-minded brothers
Vice President Mike Pence

I wanna know
How family separation
Serves the best interests
Of this nation
Which rapidly is losing
It’s reserve and patience
With your blatant animus
And wink and nod complacence

I wanna know
What depth has to be reached
Before everyone understands
Why you should be impeached
Especially when one considers
That decorum has been breached
Like the children locked in cages
What lesson does that teach?
