quasi-politicking

 

don’t call again-

 

i’d wear a grin

(is it a sin?)

if someone poked

Trump with a pin

 

we would elate

while he’d de-flate;

we need a better

candid-ate !

 

a caricature

at best;  i’m sure

supporters he’ll

impress, allure;
 
 

bamboozled by his

bold coiffure.

 


Rhyming quadrille in honor of (and with apologies to) Dr. Seuss, who would have celebrated his 112th birthday on March 2nd.  My response to d’Verse poetics (and current politics).

    One really can’t be sure now! He seems to be an annoyance much to the point of being a nuisance and even bordering on being a risk to peace and harmony. Yet he managed to draw in the crowd and came in with convincing wins!

    Trump sounds as bad as ours! Hope you, and us, get someone better. (From South Africa)
