(Request your 2024 election ballot) an advert asking expats to vote for their country
and as I myself am an expat 
I have to admit, I did enter all my credentials 
even knowing that my information 
wouldn\'t be excepted 
I was a fake 
an imposter 
after all I\'m not American
and I\'ve only ever been on American soil 
for a few weeks in my entire life 
but I did feel the need to try my luck 
If for nothing else but for pity
after all one less vote for Trump 
would surely make the world greater? 
when the computer finally refused my application 
I went to have a long hot bubble bath 
to find my serenity 
and as I lay there in the comfort 
of my surrounding candle light
and my generous helping of merlot 
I couldn\'t help but think
about the honest American people 
the ones who really want to make America great again
I wonder if they will ever
be able to bathe again in serenity?
