Making America Great Again - A Promise Poem by James B. Earley

War…declared…on folks of color
…Deliberate choice it hopes to win
Astride the bigoted…hopes of many
….Making America…Great Again

Bigoted words....said in bluster
…An abomination…to thinking folks
Pathetic others see mirrored images
…Their passions…their latent hopes

Suppressed desires….frustrations
Now have found a kindred voice
……Bellicose….belligerence
…The spokesman….indeed of choice

Bringing hope to the hopeless
A return…of familiar ways
….Society...resurrecting
Those beloved…good old days

Rancor's hatred…once asleep
…From its slumber rising raging
At the helm the fiery yeoman
…Bigotry's bluster now is waging

War declared…on folks of color
…Dubious choice…it'll never win
Despite the angered…hopes of many
….Of Making America…Great Again
