A Tremendous Poem, None Better

He was and remains the greatest guy ever

Believe me

I’ve never seen anything like it

Arrogance that goes on forever

Promises to make huge changes

Believe me

To make everything great again

Deranged redundant phrases

Everything that’s said is incredible

Believe me

His influence on everything is tremendous

Despicable and pompous, contemptible

It’s sad that he doesn’t hear his own orations

Believe me

He sounds like a massive fool

His hubris will echo for generations

Of course, he is none of these things

Believe me

He’s neither great nor incredible

Yet he has this huge ego

I’ll tell you, he is tremendous

Believe me

A liar and maker of empty promises

He’s a huge egomaniac and pretentious

He calls people he scorns nasty

Belive me

He is the one who is so foul

His treatment of his office is far from classy

I don’t care what side you’re on

Believe me

His reelection was a tremendous mistake

It’s incredible that we’re stuck with this thorn

I am tired of the constant bickering

Believe me

One side pitted against the other

He is not so terrific, but sickening

Beautiful words do not come from him

Believe me

His huge ego and promises fell short

Our future isn’t great again; it’s dim

Each day feels like a lifetime spent in anger

Believe me

We will not come out of it unscathed

His reign’s a massive, tremendous canker

The two parties are sadly broken

Believe me

Candidates we’re offered are terrific failures

We are a nation bereft of growth, frozen

We are desperate for stronger choices

Believe me

We all need a tremendous change

We need more than just two-sided voices

But we never learn; we err repeatedly

Believe me

The next election will be incredibly the same

We’ll blindly choose either thing one or thing two, assuredly

Weary from both sides’ drones of frustration

Believe me

Do we want to truly change and be great again?

Or more of the same massive failures for our nation?

I have little to say about his incredible merits

Belive me

The words he uses describe him well

The greatest, incredible, strong, incredible, massive, and terrific

Disappointment
