With liberty and just this vapor for all.

My city ‘tis

of thee, sweet place

of misery

last night of Trump.

The place where I

was born, hosted

a big moron

and doused a crowd

thereon with a

gaseous cloud.

!!!! !!!! !!!! !!!!

Why tear gas

when the president

gives us enough to

cry about anyway?

No, I did not attend the indoor rally at the Phoenix Convention Center. Nor did I take part in the “peaceful protest” outdoors in 100+ degree heat. All I can do is cry about the current crises in leadership and write packets of words that represent condensed thoughts on topics of choice.
