Duct Tape Dragon

You say

if we get gentler

or kinder

we will cease to exist

When it is your aggression

that incites rebellion

And you place

duct tape labeled oppression

over my lips

so my mouth can’t spit

flames in opposition

to your reign

you’re much more interested

in grabbing my p***y

than bettering my country

The only wall

Mexico would consider paying for

is one built around your mouth

to protect the population

from your denial

of the issues harming

the citizens you swore to protect

You applied for a job

without the qualifications

and got hired on a technicality

and while we can make America great again,

we can fix what is broken,

it won’t happen

with your tiny hands

that caused the damage in the first place

wondering who the real criminals are in society. serve and protect - i wonder. was drawn in by title alone, then blam! outstanding writing with talent on many levels. a real keeper ... :)

i appreciate the anger here. i haven't yet been able to squeeze mine into poetry form, but i've done a few essays on our glorious leader. i just wish more folks shared your point of view.

Thank you very much! As you can tell if you've read my other poems, most of my writing isn't born from anger. However, this poem needed to be written.

Your voice is most resilient here, Alexandera. You gave adversity a strong format!
