state of the union 2024

this just in: two-thirds
of the supreme court
of the united states of america
kisses ex-presidential ass
and is eager to help him
become president again
by uncriming his many executive crimes

in other breaking news
fighter jets are not scrambling
nor speeding to mar-a-lago
in order to reduce it to flaming ruin
nor are there immediate plans
to remove a megalomaniac
from the face of the nation
and rendition him to a dank elsewhere
to be tried for treason against humanity

the trouble with decency
is that indecent opponents
can cheat and steal and wreak havoc
using tactics no decent human being
would ever consider

and decency is on the wane to boot
and so the would-be future emperor
is being fitted
for his new clothes

and he knows that he will be naked
but he wants it that way
the better for the world
to kiss
his naked emperor’s ass
