I AM STILL THE PRESIDENT DAMNIT

By ONEANDLONELY

I am an American.
I know that I am.
Persecuting minorities
Like Son of Sam.
Bulldozing the feeble
And feeding the rich
Interpreting amendments
To justify the glitch.
My office is not round
But comes full circle,
The lion that enters.
Exits the jackal.

    you're not supposed to agree, glass. if you did, along with everyone else, then that would mean that the government isn't doing it's job. america is great, isn't it?

    ...just like germany was once great; england; france; spain; rome; greece. all of these once great empires were revered by their citizens (even the impoverished)--ignorant of the means by which they were obtained...

    ...bedazzled and blinded by holograms of half-truths and flat out lies..
