Who Needs Foreign Enemies?

Hey, hey, Trooper Bob LeMay /

Remember when celebrity

became you for a day?

Reinvented yourself /

as a contrarian cunt,

paid with your life /

for your performative stunt.

Take the jab, wear your PPE

How much simpler

could COVID protocols be?!

Fuck kids with cancer,

with H-I-V,

the health compromised,

healers, and the elderly.

Can’t square your civic duty

with the Conservative’s decree:

“It’s only a tragedy

if the misfortune finds me.”

With “countrymen” like these,

who needs foreign enemies?

Oh, married thrice,

stopped short of four,

proof you can’t forge a man

from a manchild ore,

anymore than the afore-

said manchild can core

a housewife from his

high-priced whore.

Humankind, having ample

exemplars from which to sample

hath deemed the fruits of Trump’s mind

bitter, toxic, nonnutritive rind.

His comments are unkind

shortsighted, short of blind.

His skullcap must be lead lined.

His conscience long ago resigned.

With "first families" like these,

who needs Roosevelts or Kennedys?

Oh, the NRA’s

enabled homegrown terror /

Since this great nation’s /

Antebellum era.

Show me a coroner’s Handcock

upon a death certificate

citing a sophistic crock

as the dead man’s cause of death.

So, next time some terrible enfant

Cosplays fascist militant,

brandishes a firearm,

or hints at some intended harm,

threatens 1776,

in subversive cosplay pics:

Let’s start complying

with confederates' demands

by prying their pistols

from their cold dead hands.

With “patriots” like these,

who needs foreign enemies?
