...Bared...to the world
A situation of flaws
Since karma's intrusion
Now grasping at straws
Floundering...campaign
....It's interesting to note
Egomaniacal...grasping
...At the lowly...Black vote
Whose suntanned appeal
Seems the ultimate waste
....An insult to the Party
And its.......bigoted base
Whom...at the moment
...Deserting......in droves
Karma's resonance in flight
Reaping...what it sows
...Exposed to the world
Dire essence of flaws
....At Karma's...persistence
'Tis...grasping...at straws
Author's note:
'Donald Trump on Tuesday night made his most explicit appeal for the votes of African-Americans to a nearly all-white crowd in a Wisconsin county where the black population is just 1.2 per cent.
'I am asking for the vote of every African-American citizen struggling in our country today who wants a different future, ' Trump told a crowd of enthusiastic supporters in a speech where he also charged Hillary Clinton with 'bigotry.'

Well written piece of work...whether one concurs with a political platform or one that may die spinning its wheels. Tightly knit, and crisp stanzaec structure flows mellifluously throughout. You don't use a teleprompter when you recite, do you? LoL! Solid quilling, J.B... ~FjR-'16~
