Barabbas
Charles didn't heed the Puritans He was God's appointed, Anointed and empowered. He tumbled from above, Down through the law, Lost his head. Nicholas was placed in the basement crypt, A cult-like condemnation; So they stood him against the wall, He listed to his Monk, His reasoning debunked, So they shot the anointed one On his golden throne. Benito was above the law, High on meat hooks. Could we dare to look? If you were lucky, If you were tied to a stake, And the ******* ignited, Someone dear would tie a bag Of gunpowder around your neck. Why let the crows pick out his eyes, Make golden nests from his hair. End the torture. Pull the life-line. Sever the head from the body politic. It is the righteous thing to do; It is the civil thing to do In pensive state. Rise up from your ashes. It is the kindest cut of all.

The Kindest Cut of All
"Having turned the machinery of the Gov't into a corrupt process of getting bad press made on his political opponents, the Bidens, by buying false investigations on them by multiple Gov'ts, must be impeached, now", say Dems, the people. The impeachment investigation has received much evidence to support it, yet, Rumputin/vlad- the-impaler, who were illegally installed into the Blackhouse after the 2016 election, are stonewalling numerous other subpeonas, requests. People have seen evidence of Donald's demanding false investigations of the Bidens be started by the Ukrainian President in exchange for already allocated by Congress 1/2 a bill in anti-tank 'javelins', but not the unreturned voicemails detailing his desires for the same 'quid pro quo' by him to other nations, here's some.  The Donald, 'Hi President of Ghana, I've heard you have some hellified kool-aid, if you investigate the Bidens we'll buy 100's of tons, awaiting your call.' 'Yo, yo, yo, President of Liechtenstein, just calling to let you know if you liechten the Bidens and find some dirt on them, we'll buy a hundred gross of your steins, this is time sensitive, top secret, so get back to us a.s.a.p., pppppllllleeeeeaaassse?' ''Sup, President of Guyana, must be hot in Africa, too bad for you, all kidding aside, I hear you guys have the best kool-aid to die for, if you investigate the Bidens and find dirt on them we'll buy 1/4 of a bill worth.  Limited time offer, bro, sooooo holla.' 'President of Hungary, I've heard you guys are always Hungary, so, if you want a 1000 tons of food 'b' alls you have to do is investigate the Bidens, find dirt on them and provide it to the Steve Bannon set-up Hungarian fox news who'll broadcast it globally over the next year.' The atrocities of it all is all the people can say.  Does this feel like a Greek comedy/tragedy to anyone else?  A quickie impeachment to cover-up the bigger Russiagate one that indicts the whole of the republican conspiracy, just in time for vlad, etc., to hack our next presidential election?

In Majestic Solemnity Our Great Republic Moves Toward Impeachment
Empowered and impaired they conspire to impeach. Bad Orange-man, spared still remains out of reach. If impeachment was due, now it rots in the the sun. They're attempting a coup when no wrong has been done. Over-ripened, it's rotting the maggots now fly . . . unfruitful, their plotting: a low-hanging lie.

Four you already know, But I can't, I won't, Put them in writing... allegedly. The Fifth is my favorite. Adrift on the Bering Strait, On an ice flow, Followed by habitat strained Polar Bears. (We'll give him an oar) Upon landing on the opposite shore, To be met By a voracious, ferocious, And ******* Russian bear.

Five Ways To Undo The Don
I am glad when each Patriot says “impeach”! It will be perfectly all right If they also say “Indict!” Then jail him that night. Truth returns when he’s gone. Just goodness from then on. And then people of all colors Will re-learn to work together We can make that last forever. There’ll be a celebration Clear across this nation! Then the Republican side Will need to run and hide! We’ll hold our heads up high And bid him a loud goodbye. We’ll jail him and his pets And be sure to never let Americans ever forget We’ll take away his pension And never even mention His name without spitting. He’s lucky we’re not hitting Or kicking where he sits! There’ll be a celebration Clear across this nation! Then the Republican side Will need to run and hide! Take his awful brats when he leaves They did whatever they pleased; Their morals are so small, Those ugly acorns didn’t fall Far from the tree at all, He’ll sit on his golden throne Except for ****** him alone And tweet his ignorant tweets While the lawyers beat feet And sound a loud retreat. There’ll be a celebration Clear across this nation! Then the Republican side Will need to run and hide!

(Critique number 1: of social norms in the 21st century) To the point that our American social fabric has been stained by the original sin of slavery was a point President Abraham Lincoln hoped would be dealt with by the winning and reconciliation of those states who fought to secede during the Civil War; to that end, the Union was saved but equality was not to be had by all man, regardless of color, as well as woman, and progress would arrive in fits and starts. Our founding fathers declared that "All men are created equal" yet many held salves which meant as they wrote of equality they held of the standards of disenfranchised persons; it took almost 100 years after the Civil War for the next great leap of civil discourse in equality leading to a series of legislative passages throughout the civil rights era to bring what appeared as true and final equality, and though none can doubt great leaps were made, the original sin of our nation - that of espousing that all men our created equal while looking the other way as these very men of principle held slaves to tend there homesteads - is a wonder of true blind-sight.

The Emperor's absurd and yet we hang on every word and he has every right to coin a new word to have his fits of logorrhea to incinerate North Korea to mock the handicapped, women, and blacks to free the super-wealthy from tax to trash the planet rob the poor make the rich richer and do much more.... "President Trump" is an oxymoron. Donald the Chump is a ***** Ooops, Pussy-Grabber's term has expired. It's time to tell Trump: "You're fired."
