He's a Mess!

A Poem by Bob B

(This poem could be sung to the melody of Cole Porter's song "You're the Top" from ANYTHING GOES.)

The fear's gigantic;

I'm getting frantic.

Although it MIGHT make some folks squirm,

My thoughts about this are really firm:

There can't be a second term.

It's worth repeating;

I'm not retreating,

For I know there's a lot at stake.

And if my ramble

Is worth the gamble,

I can't help saying

Which choice I'd make.

He's a mess.

He's a real loser.

He's a mess.

He's a sunken cruiser.

He's a song that goes on and on; who knows how long?

He's a rotten apple,

A rusty scapple,

A deal gone wrong.

He's a car

That has lost its power.

He's a jar

Full of food that's sour.

He's a popped balloon, a sick cartoon, and yes,

You can't help but see how truly

He's a mess!

He's a mess.

He is Batman's Joker.

He's a grade--

Worse than mediocre.

He's a cloudy day that's so cold and gray in spring.

He is Putin's BFF,

Hannibal Lecter's chef,

A ding-a-ling!

He's the score

Of the team that's losing.

He's a joke

That is not amusing.

So much separates the candidates. I'll stress:

One should NEVER vote for Trump 'cause

He's a mess!

Really happy to read this work of yours Bob.... YES, he is a mess and we all ask ourselves why oh why would anyone vote for Trump.... Scary though and why so many of us have moved from the States..
Every thing you said about him is so very true... Perhaps your poem will bring some to their senses? But, I doubt it and today it looks like they are neck n' neck at the polls... Yikes... really??/ How can that be????
I found your thoughts so very well expressed.....
