Trump politicized my mask
Thousands of people had to ask,
Insane or evil when he underscores,
Mixed messages in culture wars?

Oh, but didn’t he say recently
How beautiful that wars can be
Like the one he won single-handedly
Out of Ft. Bragg, or was it Ft. Lee?

The man abuses and confuses
His storm troopers fume on short fuses
Who knows just where we will arrive
Democracy in a slow nose-dive

So, cover your nose and wash your hands
In a terror tossed tempest & pestilent land
