here we go!

the gust-front strikes as almost a relief
the waiting's had us at each other's throats
now air's aswirl with dust and twig and leaf
that had been thick with arguments and votes
the fascists Europe banished long ago
convinced that war was won for once and all
have now emerged from backwoods Idaho
to seize the reins democracy let fall
now Trump lets Bannon ride the Fourth Estate
George Orwell's turning flips to hear such words
the facile lie he'll "make our nation great"
makes as much sense as polishing a turd
farewell to any journalistic norm
all's swept away in Donald's bullshit storm
