Flummoxed Joe (a poem)

By Other Voices 2 min read

An ode to Joe

To let him know

Clueless, lawless, Joe

Bad as Edgar Allen Poe

Just for starters

Your as bad as Carter

Can't hide in basement anymore

Rigged election we do mourn

Cities looted, burned and crime

All on our citizens dime

Your main purpose is to protect

But our safety you neglect

Katrina you forget

Without cops, crime you get

Russian collusion interfered election

This was original insurrection

Steele Dossier purchased by Hillary

Harassed first day by Comey

Causing election distress

Not covered by the Press

All conceived by Democrats

No better than a pack of rats

Unjust impeachment they did try

all based on a pack of lies

Ethics and principles avoid

Common sense devoid

Democrats first, country last

Judging this country by its past

Any favors for power

Pandering every hour

Calling people SOB

President you should not be

Preaching left and right

all about voting rights

Wanting no ID is a joke

For our freedom you choke

Easier to rig drop boxes

Even though there's mail boxes

What good is a recount

If identity you can't mount

Can we stand four years of Joe

With Press and BLM in tow

Masks, Covid and inflation

all with economic stagnation

Portland, Seattle and Minneapolis burned

For equal justice and Press I yearned 

Who, what, where, when, why for Press  clarity

But agenda of Press is to push for falsity

I beg to differ

My explanation offer

It's human behavior that needs correction

Country's principles are perfection
