890: A Pestilential Reverie

DREAMLAND (June 30) — 
This virus must be a Democrat.
It wants to make me look bad.
It is a front. Another witch hunt.
Here's what I say: SO SAD!

Anthony Fauci and Nancy Pil-lousy,
I know these Eye-tal-ian names!
I worked with the Mafia back in New York.
These too aren't the same.

I will not wear a mask.
It would ruin my mood
and get in the way
of my Coke® and junk food.

I always loved the Confederacy.
Still will whatever occurs.
Somebody said Confederate draft boards
issued exemptions for guys with bone spurs.

I'm in the same party as Lincoln.
Not many people know that.
Back in the day, we Republican racists
called ourselves Democrats.

If THEY cheat and I am defeated . . .
well, what has to be just has to be.
However, I have an excellent offer
to be president of the Confederacy.

I can see me carved on Stone Mountain
with Davis and Jackson and Lee.
In time they all fade away,
leaving only the mountain and me.


Time. I have none for the Bible.
And, yet, Christian I am.
Once (maybe twice) I glanced at the index
but, try as I might, I could not find my name.

Who knows how history will see me?
At this point it's too soon to say.
Regardless Rudy, my consigliere,
is paying historians to sign NDAs.
