He learned the art of the steal from Roy Cohen
The architect of evil in the McCarthy days
Poison principles to wipe out adversaries
In any profession, the prostitution of permits
Sleight of hand, intricate language for liars
Monopoly on a grandiose scale, except for
The GO-TO-JAIL card, missing from action
Collect money, sell national land for drilling
Build on stolen property and defy the world
Goad unstable leaders to the brink of war
Make no apologies for wrong-doing, sign
Legal documents designed to bring misery
All of these and more before you meet your
Maker and before we can give you the JAIL
Card, rescue our country from disaster,
Confine you to a padded room, and serve
You with several last meals of fatty foods
And Sugar Soda to rot your teeth, burst
Your hard cold cruel heart, and consign
You to the list of worst presidents
The only win you will ever get on earth.
