not with a bang

our Founding Fathers feared democracy
must be unstable, hobbled by its flaw
devolving into strongman tyranny
a demagogue who doesn't know the law
twelve score of years, it's worked despite their fears
our checks and balances kept us upright
but Gingrich threw a wrench into those gears
to bend our course to what he thought was Right
his Golem, Donald scoffs at paying tax
or settling debts his contracts say he owes
"reality" for him's not tied to facts
he's proud of what he's got, not what he knows
he treats our constitution like a rag
but wraps his fascist ravings in our flag
