puerile

Trump doesn't listen when a staffer speaks
each memo they prepare's a wasted tree
so some resort strategically to leaks
and hope he'll sop up something from TV
while Tillerson and Mattis compensate
assuring allies he's not wholly mad
he makes new mischief, and they come too late
to sweep up what's been shattered by the lad
too loyal to ignore our empire's fall
they strain to keep Trump focused on the task
but all he seem's to care about's that wall
diplomacy's an awful lot to ask
we've got the moron Mencken'd warned we would
and bought George Orwell's double-plus ungood
