... brand that rocks the cradle
a starchild to begin,
“A” student again an again,
boy scout with every pen,
predictions an easy win,
mom really loves him
dad is super proud,
the hate they taught him
wrapped around like a shroud,
once a quiet kid
with a devilish cloud,
was Invisible
now shoots into a crowd,
misinformed ignorance
that is the mainstay,
sub level maturity
the order of the day,
lie, fear, corruption,
xenophobia is their play,
only one and “the others”
not even a shade of gray,
they claim to be religious
but a blind man would say,
it would suck to be them
on the real judgment day.
