Through stuttered stops
and exposed throat
on a bitter Winter day,
the president
took the oath
to serve
and then to say:
Unity! Unity!
We must not be divided.
America must rise and raise
behind our leader,
Joseph Biden.
There’s far to go
and much to gain.
It will be tough—
there is no hiding. But
Tomorrow’s Americans will write:
The States,
They were United.
Election
11.13.20 – Ms. Vice President
Kamala did it
She’s arisen to VP.
But not by be’ng Dem.
11.6.20 – Election Limerick
The US must choose Trump or Biden
But some states’ ballots be hidin’
Because it’s been three days
And there still is a haze
As to which old white man will reside in
….The White House.
10.16.20 – Da Bait
A hurricane of debate
Rained down on a judge
While the two viewed
To need it most
Hid in town halls
Far apart.
9.18.20 – Football, Debate, and TikTok Hate
Football is back in the NFL,
Quenching a thirst in a sports dry spell.
Big Ten brought back their guns,
Returning football next month.
Trump v. Biden has been floated to Rogan
While the Taylor’s were paid for Breonna’s murder.
All of these things came and they went
Throughout the week that much the time spent
Wondering with whom TikTok would fall
Only to find there’d be no TikTok at all.
8.19.20 – Susan B. Anthony Haiku
Susan Anthony
Became the latest pardon
Within DT’s reign.
8.18.20 – Signed, Sealed, Not Delivered
Pressed under the thumb of pro-Trump puppets,
The USPS is flattened.
They send out calls to 46 states
That delays will surely happen.
Pulled from summer vacation,
House Oversight will meet to reckon
The fate of the United States Postal Service
Because democracy’s being threatened.
8.12.20 – Kamala
Kamala Harris was chosen to be
a partner, a leader, a light, a VP.
maybe they’ll win and maybe they’ll won’t
at least they had tried to get out the vote.
lest we forget this in times of attack
after all, she’s more than just Black.
8.4.20 – No No Nevada
Ha!
You think it’s that easy!
To vote in democracies
Cannot be so breezy!
Good luck, Nevada,
In trying to squeeze the
Only thing afforded to thee:
The right to vote
Cannot be so easy.
7.31.20 – Delay! Delay! Delay!
Delay the damned election!
It’s over anyways…
I will surely beat that Biden
If I ever get my way.
It’s for the safety of the people
Who will cast their votes for me.
Don’t mind the pushback from my party.
I demand delay from thee!
