№ 405: Trump Doctrine Emerges (musings from the latrine)

I mean what I say
and I say what I mean
and if “perchance”
you feel that demeans
I could not care less,
you hill of beans.

Any strong leader,
a king or a tsar,
can never accept
things as they are
and if he does
he will not go far.

I eschew (Gesundheit!)
all compromise.
We do it my way
or everyone dies.
Trump is my name,
I am outsize.

You want to survive?
DO AS I SAY!
End of the day,
I get my way.
This isn't some stupid
fucking ballet.

Laws and Courts
can't tell me what to do.
Really, come on,
that's news to you?
(I suspect Melanie
hides my shampoo.)

You think with me
you're better off dead?
Would you really rather
Mike Pence instead?
As said the Red Queen,
“Off with their heads!”
