There Once Was a Man...

The inexplicable!

There once was a man so egotistical,

and his support was completely inexplicable--

that he thought he was qualified for the job

of commander of us all--and the delusional mob

he had supporting him was totally unbelievable.

It seemed he could say anything--it was inconceivable,

but they didn't seem to care, they bought his lies,

sight unseen--and he was the opposite of wise.

They didn't want to hear--they were in some kind of trance.

And he claimed to be an expert on money and finance,

and, I know it means nothing, but lord, that hair!

He just filed for bankruptcy--he wouldn't fight fair.

If you weren't cutthroat, and played by the rules, you were a loser,

and he belittled and ridiculed his many accusers,

like an immature kid in fifth grade would.

I've tried to understand, and would if I could.

It was dog-eat-dog, and if you took it in the shorts,

his demonic face he scowled and did contort.

I mean, he looked--if their is such a thing,

like the Anti-Christ--of terrifying, he was the king.

Had no understanding, or desire to, of the facts.

I wonder what took the place of the compassion he lacked?
