REALM OF THE POSSIBLE (February 19) —
We are toast, despite Trump boasts, our future's past
We're in deep because this creep and his sad cast
of toadies, crooks, and Chris-ti-an fascists
to whom he's givin' all they ever wished
There really ain't nothin' more to say
ex-cept it's all over USA
With the nation fallin' deeper into senescence
shrinking in importance and in relevance,
attending closely to discordant tweets
from one who supp-ORTS White men in sheets
Too late for it all to go away
so it's all over now USA
With all those hapless Dem-o-crats, you gotta groan
Plannin' for a win that jes' ain’t gonna come
Promisin' the moon and maybe more,
sayin' if you want, you just ask for,
ignorin' we're fast closin' on doomsday
so it's all over now USA
With no sense Dems there is nothin' we can do
except hope maybe Bloomberg can still break through
though he's not ideal and he's a bore
about as colorful as was Al Gore
but given his opponents, I gotta say
he’s our best shot to make Trump go away
