By: Cedric McClester Go back to where you came from The President indelicately said To those members of Congress That have gotten in his head The fact that they’re all female Which he might like to bed Is the additional information That is better left unsaid Go back to where you came from Is an old familiar screed? Which is the object of the subject That the protagonist happens to need To make someone feel less than What they are indeed By otherizing them The protagonist hopes to succeed Go back to where you came from Some racist like to taunt Others who are different When they want to vaunt Their status over them Like the philosopher Kant Or like a mother who has precedent Over a favorite aunt Go back to where you came from As if they really knew When nine times out to ten They don’t even have a clue When they issue that directive As racist frequently do But here's some cancer causing tobacco That I wish that they would chew Cedric McClester, Copyright © 2019.  All rights reserved.

GO BACK TO WHERE YOU CAME FROM!
