Jim Croche Must Be Turning in His Grave

A metaphoric look at the actions of Donald Trump

By Cheryl E PrestonPublished 7 months ago • 1 min read

Nothing and no one

Is off limits

For DJT who must believe

He’s Bad Bad Leroy Brown

Boldly going

Where others fear to tread

Does he really think

He’s the baddest man around

With brazen audacity

He’s dared to tug

On Superman’s cape

With fury he’s spit into the wind

Was not afraid to pull the mask off

The old Lone Ranger

And dared to mess around with Jim

Attacking the pope

Comparing himself to Christ

What’s next

Will he shake his fist

At the Creator of heaven and earth

Jim Croce never thought

His songs would be used this way

He must be turning

In his grave
