Modern Day Caligula

(a sonnet)  
   
He is a modern day Caligula  
Ranting how he should be back on the throne  
Screaming loud you can see his uvula  
As the orange paint doesn’t match the tone  
   
His deception game has quite the brilliance  
Something's wrong, one can see it in his eyes  
He’s been able to hypnotize millions  
Followers swallow bukkakes of lies  
   
It’s sad when masses heed to a mad man  
It passes for normal without disdain  
It’s a plain train wreck waiting to happen  
But the senseless idiot has gone insane  
   
It’s a risky political twister  
When people try to elect a grifter
