I have not been diligent in writing for this blog;
Used to do a lot of rhymes but it became a slog.
It's no fun to rhyme about what's going on out there.
America is in a crisis... I am in despair.
I'd thought Donald Trump an aberration - just a fluke -
Now I see he isn't, and that makes we want to puke.
He attacks the very things that made this country great;
Demonizing every Democratic candidate.
His base loves him for it; they adore his Twitter rants...
Echoing his ugly sentiments in racist chants.
Maybe Trump's just cynical and it's his strategy
But the fact it's working for him is depressing me.
I feel like a dummy 'cause I never understood
How it is that people, even in my neighborhood,
Here, in Chelmsford, Massachusetts, are supporting Trump...
My faith in humanity has gone into a slump.
'though I've tried, repeatedly, to see the other side;
Put aside how often his Administration's lied,
Watched a lot of FOX and Friends for what they had to say,
I found myself overwhelmed... I've had to step away.
