Who's In Charge? (Politics For Preschoolers) Poem by Percy Dovetonsils

Who's In Charge? (Politics For Preschoolers)



Who's in charge
with nine days to go?

Is it somebody orange
and mad
with a behind
as large
as a barge?
Won't that be bad,
now that even the stupidest
know they've been had?

Who's in charge
with nine days to go?

'They tried to make me
leave the White House,
they said 'Go, go, go.'
They tried to make me
leave the White House
I said, 'No, no, no.'

Who's in charge
with nine days to go?

Is it someone
not in the know,
with as little spine
or sense,
as Pence?

Who's in charge
with nine days to go?

Is it Biden,
bidin'
his time
till an inaugural
which ought to go well
but might not be swell
if Trump's sturmtruppers,
saying he didn't win,
storm again?
Time.....9 more days,
will tell.

Who's in charge
with nine days to go?

Is it Nancy P,
3rd in succession,
determined to teach
the Sturmer in Chief
a lesson
with a blitzpeach?
Will she grant Joe
a 100 day honeymoon,
before sending
Dump's large barge behind
to the moon?
Is a blitzpeach
this week
too soon?

It's enough to make
a citizen swoon.

Who's in charge
with nine days to go?

Is No-
body in charge
in a country so
large?
Can we make it
a week
on momentum alone?
Like a headless chicken
with a head
like a rolling
stone?

Who's in charge
with nine days to go?

President No-
body
of the Knownothing Party.
His head detached
from his galloping body.
He knows no history,
for him
thinking's a mystery.
He's the perfect leader
for a headless,
thoughtless,
country.

Aye, aye mate! A seaworthy write although the ship is sinking. Justice is not for the meek. I heard Trump brought back the firing squad.
