Here are four poems written between Election Day 2016 and Inauguration Day 2017. There are two examples of a new type of poem, a combination of a limerick and a sonnet. I\u2019m developing what is called a limeronnet. My new name for DJT is Trump E.R.Y. Trumpery means \u201cworthless nonsense\u201d, and E.R.Y. is short for Electoral Reigning Yahoo.<\/p>\n

\nentered his cranium where follicles lie
\nhe\u2019d be much better off if he let his head
\ngo bald or turn silver and white instead
\nvanity won\u2019t let him he\u2019s \u201ca smart guy\u201d
\n\u00a0
\nwhen the serious gravity of his new job situation
\nputs Big Apple man in international locations
\nwhere he used to say \u2018you\u2019re fired\u2019 or \u2018big loser\u2019
\nnow he\u2019ll be forced to be a diplomacy user
\ndealing with rulers of many foreign nations
\n\u00a0
\nas Trump E.R.Y. moves from the Tower to his new digs
\nhis first move from business deals to political gigs
\ndenial of facts and insulting\u00a0 Intelligence has not moved
\nhis personal deplorableness is now more than proved
\nhe falls down lacking diplomatic gravity in his Newtonian jigs
\n\u00a0
\nThe Russians are Coming, Don Keeps Dumbing<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nRepublican and Russian cyberspace is humming
\nnews sources from various sectors of US Intelligence
\nPOTUS elect says they\u2019re not doing due diligence
\nas Trump E.R.Y. the Don keeps right on dumbing
\n\u00a0
\nnow bombast and bluster is breaking down
\nhis face seems to wear a permanent frown
\nand all the old Generals and\u00a0 rich Wall St. men
\ncan\u2019t put Trumpty Dumpty back together again
\ngold toilets and faucets overflow threaten to drown<\/p>\n
\nhis Wall St. billionaires are all the ultimate \u2018fat cats\u2019
\nthose recently nominated or appointed to his cabinet
\nTrump said HRC was in with them, let\u2019s not forget
\nantithetical to First Amendment most alt right stats<\/p>\n
\nour nation is in a crossroad situation
\nyour staying power has not come to an end
\nbut few can tell our current destination
\nit seems all the \u201cLock Her Up\u201d demanders
\nhave evolved their next campaign shout
\nas they understand speeches by Bernie Sanders
\nchanting now of Trump, \u201cThrow him out, throw him out\u201d
\nit seems the 1st and 2nd Amendments
\nare getting dumbed down by Don the Deplorable
\nlets follow our founding fathers and the 10 Commandments
\nand let the Supreme Court do the legal explorable
\nwouldn\u2019t you like to read a \u201cTRUE\u201d news report
\nabout Republicans and \u201c9\u201d members on the Supreme Court<\/p>\n
\nReaders should remember HRC listed the \u201cbasket of deplorables\u201d as negative qualities associated with DJT, e.g., misogyny, racism, sexism, etc., not people as many claimed, but if the shoe fits wear it.<\/em>
\n\u00a0
\noffending common sense and our eyes and ears
\nthe deplorable one towards deplorability steers
\ncustoms and systems begin to fall apart
\neven before Inauguration Day his official start
\na Russian Red tide is on its way coming back
\ndenied by Trump E.R.Y. every cyber attack
\nceremonies of friendship are performed
\nas First and Second amendments are deformed
\nsome kind of comeuppance is at hand
\nthose tough generals will make their stand
\nhis cabinet of Wall St. billionaires lacks diversity
\nand not a single graduate from Trump University
\nyet Trump E.R.Y. continues more craps he\u2019s shootin
\nmore to come from his realpolitik pal Vladimir Putin<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
