Laughing out a Riot

he is laughing out a riot
because he can
and he is not an idiot
if only he is

he made wall street cry
and the nation die
and he still long
for Miss American Pie

he has a swollen coffer
reaped from the poor
he has nothing to offer
but wants to have more

he is the prince
of a huge dunghill
a heap of discards
his crown askew

he laughs
as the levee is dry.
