Pseudo-Petrarchan Sonnet on a President Is a Wish Away from Being a King
I’ll tell you what’s what’s an official act an
Official act is sure if maybe sure
Maybe I kill a guy if I deter
-mine he’s a threat to the country it’s a fact
Now killing bad guys isn’t an exact
Science believe me folks I wish it were
But wishes are for history to bur
-den with the consequences of bold action
That’s in a draft of the Project Twenty Twenty-
Five plan book thing Steve said it was he says
It means it doesn’t matter why I do
Anything what I do what matters is
I win now Steve’s a smart guy he knows plenty
It’s a good plan I think it’s coming true
Elizabethan Sonnet on Violating the Flag Code
How much are we supposed to take the guy in
His yard he had a sign it said Fuck Trump
And so my wife complained she wasn’t whining
But it was like the guy just took a dump
In the middle of our neighborhood just right
There in the street just took a shit his yard
The street whatever anyway that might
Have been the end of it but she was scarred
My wife by the foul mouth on this guy fucking
Filthy the things he said to her I’ll tell
You what that guy is lucky very lucky
I wasn’t there say Fuck Trump then they’re all
Cowards you hang it upside-down when you
Fear for your life the flag says Fuck you too
Elizabethan Sonnet on from 2004 to 2023 Clarence Thomas Received $4 Million in Gifts
I made as much I almost made as much
Four million on the side as I got paid
Let myself down there should’ve made as much
Made more you either play or you get played
Why should I save a rich man’s life for free
I mean it’s that’s it isn’t it the game
Their money or your life black folks are free
As scraps of paper curling in a flame
You only need a breeze and you will fly
God makes the breeze to blow or you get burned
Friend but it’s not God’s fault if you don’t fly
What if I hadn’t hustled hadn’t learned
From wealthy men those men affirm my power
You don’t have power if no one buys your power
