Are We This Dumb?
For Donald Trump
What's agonizing
Never-ending betrayal
Trusted men and words
The Post The Times
Lethal muteness
Conspicuous blind eyes
Upon terror after terror
Are we this dumb?
Believing fish can walk
Cell phones talk high in the sky
A skyscraper
47 story tall melting down
At 5:20 PM untouched
Hello my dear 9/11
Are we infantilized
Sorry soap operas
Sandy Hook parents
Fictional kids
Toying with America
Our common sense
Our trust of men
Then
That's time for us
To say
This is not my America
This can't be good
We shall stop watching
Playing football
Reading papers
Listening to news
Until our trusted men
Earn their wings
Asking
questions of essence
