They say they believe in the constitution
Wanting to raze every solid institution
Strongmen on homologous trajectories
Rummaging into scanty treasuries
They think past legacy has been toxic
Considering themselves as truly heroic
They promise better days ahead
Only to dog-whistle insults unsaid
They do not believe in innate human value
Holding nothing to be sacred or a taboo
They have a humungous selfdom
Treating the great nation as their kingdom
They think taking advice is for the weak
Surmising modesty is only for the meek
They think that they absolutely know it all
Forgetting pride always comes before a fall
They push for extreme nationalism
Devoid of any virtuous patriotism
They undo hard fought rights
Creating causes for new fights
They keep awake throughout the night
Ruminating as how might can be right
They purport as saviours of the day
Bad-mouthing their rivals every day
They want to go back in history
Painting a nightmare as a story
The day of reckoning is coming
and the signs of it are in the making
