4 OCTOBER PRESIDENT COVID

Posted by: a.newspoet - Posted on:

THE PRESIDENT’S VOICE IS THICKENING   

THAT’S WHAT NASAL CONGESTION DOES FOR YOU 

ALONG WITH THE NATION   

SICKENING

HIS PERSONAL COCKTAIL OF EXPERIMENTAL MEDICINES IS NOT AVAILABLE NATIONWIDE  

SAYS HE CAN’T ABIDE THE UPSTAIRS WHITE HOUSE HIDEAWAY 

‘THAT’S NOT ME’   

INSTEAD HE’S DOING COVID

AS REALITY TV   

THROWAWAY LINES KEEP COMING   

IS HE ACTING FOR THE GREATER GOOD?   

OR SIMPLY ACTING?  

HE’D LIKE TO BE LIKE BOGART ON CASABLANCA’S RUNWAY 

TRENCH COAT AND HAT 

THAT AND TALKING SIDEWAYS    

THERE ARE MOMENTS WHEN HE CLOSES HIS EYES   

PERHAPS THE PERFORMATIVE SELF’S TAKING MUCH MORE OUT OF HIM THAN USUAL  

AND IT’S WRONG TO SPEAK ILL OF THE ILL    

BUT THIS NARCISSIST THIS FANTASIST 

WILL SURELY HAVE REALISED  

THE STORY ENDS BETTER IF HE DIES 

WISHING THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 
A FULL RECOVERY  
YOURS TRULY
