The president has exceeded
Decorum by far
American cities aren’t the
Province of Anbar
If he brings in the troops
We’ll all bare the scar
Of a president who took
His power too far

The president doesn’t know
Where to draw the line,
Despite the roadblocks
He’s likely to find
He bulldozes ahead
As if he is blind
But if he keeps it up
He’ll die on a vine

The president is obviously
Tone deaf
Our nation’s in morning
And we are bereft
He pushes the limits
Until nothing’s left
Other than a stroke
Or maybe his death

The president hasn’t read
The Bible or Constitution
And he’s rolled back the laws
Against air pollution
As if climate change
Is some kind of solution
But everything he does
Is lilliputian
