Eager Collaborators Poem by Percy Dovetonsils

Was listening
to an old Trumplican bag
in Florida
being interviewed.
She claimed
the covid deaths
are a hoax.
The interviewer
described her
as misinformed.

But I say
these people know better
and simply prefer to claim
they believe in a system of thought
which supports their racism,
classism, avarice (massive tax cuts for the rich) ,
tribalism, xenophobia, etc.
They're not the helpless victims
of Fox and Trump.
They're eager collaborators
in mistruth, misdirection..
Truth, facts, compassion,
are absolutely not welcome
in their tiny minds and hearts.
They long ago embraced the cult
and drank the koolade.

Shave their heads
of what hair they have left
in the public square
and send them, naked,
out into the woods
to be eaten by wolves,
coyotes, buzzards, and feral canids.
Those, that is,
that survive
the covid
they deny
exists.
