the State of Nature

Obama dug us out of 'Cheney's Slump'
but still was subject to the Right's attacks.
That fringe embrace the moron Donald Trump
who can't forgive the sin of being Black.
Discounting wisdom coming from a face
that doesn't need vacation to look tan,
Trump's cultists' politics revolve on race;
they disregard the merits of the man.
"The government's the problem" Reagan crowed
and maybe he believed the words he spoke.
At least that's what the teleprompter showed
and no one told the geezer that's a joke.
Leviathan can spare us Nature's ills
it's Trumpty-Dumpty's insouciance that kills.
