Iconic Idiot

Iconic Idiot

A Poem by The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)
"

Short and (not so)sweet

"

 

I am standing on the corner

Watching the chicken jaywalk

At the corner of

Washington and Lincoln

On his way to

Stand on JFK’s grave.

Yup chicken s**t on such an iconic man's grave is in itself grave. We are now fed a daily diet of Trump and while I have yet to decide on the man it is plain he is different. In the long history of politics anything different is welcome in order have a break from the politically correct diplomacy of sterility, duplicity and backroom manipulation of the masses. I began reading and though "I'm standing on a corner in Winslow Arizona......."

Today he banned some of the media outlets from a briefing. The act of a dictator.

Part warning, part inspiration: guess it depends on how one thinks, I mean, really thinks.
Not understood so totally but I sense you peeved and a bit angry with the state of affairs in your nation perhaps. Regardless, I love your style 🌺

It is basically about how Trump is disgracing the presidency with his actions.
