M.E.M.

The Election

I stare into the bright blue screen in my hand

Because my country just turned blue.

Replacing the bumbling elephant

with the ancient donkey.

 

I think all is not lost

after all.

After all,

The fat orange cheese puff is leaving.

Is his not?

 

I didn’t hope for much

these past four years.

Only that I would live

and that world war three 

would not take place in my lifetime.

 

The donkey knows the customs

and the ways of government.

Please give me hope Blue Donkey

I have been without it for a long time.
