It’s Springtime for Donald by R.M. Engelhardt

It’s Springtime for Donald

How sad

Truly
    sad

Your life must be

To play the villain
The monster on
Reality TV

While children are being
Born, and the elderly are dying and
Another mother can’t afford the rent

And a family who
Just lost their home

But what do you care?

As all the flowers bloom
And all the billionaires fly off
To Mar-A Lago to worship
Your sorry Russian bought fat
Lap dog

Ass

Playing golf
On the American dollar
As the people you just fired
Stand in the unemployment lines
With no future

As you stare at the camera
Like a psychopath

With a disturbed smile

Happy & content
As a pigeon who
Just shit on a
Brand new car

Because it’s Springtime
For Donald

As all the flowers die
As all your believers wretch
Realizing that you are
Far less than a real human being

Or even a leper messiah

Because it’s Springtime for Donald

As the warm April wind
Smells like putrid dogshit
Wherever
You suddenly

Appear
