Tyrants, dictators never remember history.
Never remember that Berlin came down in hours
The Great Wall is now walked upon
By tourists from other countries,
And the Roman Colosseum mostly exists in selfies
As a background for smiling faces
So our current powerful clown
With his wing man Moscow Mitch
A nightmare from our childhood, steals food from
Welfare children and mothers trying to feed them
Then sends black women back to Somalia
While our current impotent Congress
Afraid of shadows in the afternoon
Hiding behind the Washington Monument
Disregarding the Lincoln Memorial
Forgetting the history of this amazing country
Does nothing…
Except approve ownership of AK-47s
A Soviet invention
Approved by the Soviet aligned impotent Congress
Sold by Walmart
On sunny weekend afternoons
With the ammunition enough to kill twenty oblivious folks
In El Paso…
And Moscow Mitch is angered by his nickname
As his wife steals another $40,000 in stock
Authorized by her boss Donnie the clown
The wall builder who never heard that “it’s the space
Between the bars that keep the tiger in the cage.”
On Judgement Day Donnie can explain to God
Why he never created a bridge for people to cross
He only built walls,
Knowing, God never builds walls
Walls never keep people out.
Walls only keep people in.
