Make America Great Again Poem by Barry Middleton
Make America Great Again
no more norms
White House storms.
down the road a lynch mob forms.
the racist right
is out tonight.
no more robes but in plain sight.
great again?
hate and sin?
this is where the tears begin.
cries of grief
no relief.
reactionaries beyond my belief.
war is coming
thunder drumming.
in the streets the blood is running.
what's in store?
civil war?
is this what we bargained for?

A stirring poem and photo image. Your poem reminds me of Langston Hughes' poem 'Let America be America Again'. The theme is similar, and you have touched a raw nerve in there somewhere.
