But, Hey, No King Here - poem

Dispatches for the Colonial Office

 

But, Hey, No King

 

The most lawless ruler is a Man of the People

Posturing upon some whited balcony

His pouting lips frozen in a perpetual sneer

While his toadies cheer their bondage, and call it freedom

 

The semi-automatic rifle is their Bible

Barbed wire is their semi-automatic law

The Constitution is but the president’s whims

(Let us now pray

for his bowel movements today)

 

Congress and the Supreme Court with feet of clay

Await in fear, in disgrace, in moral decay

For a Murat to come and brush them away:

 

“Citizens, you are dismissed.”
