Please don't let Donald Trump say anything. . . Unanimous votes to let this man go on home, spend time with your kids, ignore thee attention, invest in your pension, start a life with other white women. Just try to be different. . . A poetic intervention for Mr. OJ Simpson. . . Seventy-one and this old man still kickin'. . .
