Foreign Emolument

Trump curtsied prettily to the Emir
defying protocol of what one ought
as if this parvenue could be a peer
and aristocracy's so cheaply bought
our allies wince to think that Riyadh's whore
could use our globe-encircling armament
to profit bigly from a baseless war
morality just bores this president
the wisest can't anticipate what's next
no principle, no policy, no creed
lends continuity to his next text
the only constant theme's his endless greed
the Saudis yoke his neck with gold and jewels
a trifling price to buy this prince of fools
