443

boy's own poem

the president is taking a dump

(I think that's how he puts it)

laying a pipe

(all the way to Alaska)

this happens most days

and sometimes more than once

it's a tweet

it could be fake news

no one can do this for him

still I believe it's happening

now and that won't be an end of it

the president is leaving a log

on whom will glory fall this day?

he did this long before he came to office

perhaps he'll do it a long time after

it doesn't seem very presidential

though I suppose it is a product of democracy

the red necks who have prayed for this

they have gathered in the old rust shop

the hour is nigh

for the next big drop

they are ready to receive

it might be this president's finest product

and yet as you focus your attention here

over time I think you'll admit

the image never becomes less disturbing

the old questions come back to us

one waits for history

to flush
