30 SEPTEMBER BIDEN AND TRUMP IN ‘PRESIDENTIAL’ DEBATE
ABSURDLY WHITE AND STURDY AS A TOILET BOWL
HIS YOUNG MAN’S TEETH BRING THE BLOODLESS FACE INTO EVEN SHARPER RELIEF
NOTHING IN THAT FACE IS UNFITTING FOR AN OLD MAN
BUT THIS IS PRIME TIME USA
AKA
NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN
WHO KNOWS HOW WE’VE ENDED UP WITH TWO OF THEM?
STANDING AT THE OTHER PODIUM ON CLEVELAND’S DEBATING STAGE
AN AMERICAN SNIPER LETS LOOSE TOO MANY ROUNDS
NOT TERRORISM THIS IS TRUMPISM
BUT VIEWERS MAY RECOIL
FROM THE PRESIDENT’S EXCESSIVE VELOCITY
HIS CYNICAL FEROCITY
SO IT’S PALE AND FALTERING VERSUS THE TECHNICOLOR DISCHARGE
ONE ADDLED THE OTHER CURDLED
UNDERSTANDABLE IF PEOPLE SAY
LET’S CALL THE WHOLE THING OFF
LOOKING AGAIN
AT THIS SPECTACLE OF AMERICA’S DECLINE
WHY WOULDN’T THEY?
WISHING THAT THINGS COULD ONLY GET BETTER FEARING THEY MAY END UP EVEN WORSE YOURS TRULY THE NEWS POET
