and I give you this :
it’s Gordon Ramsey
saying that it’s ok,
you tried your best ;
when the wellington
is raw
and the patrons
up and leave ;
it’s the MAGA
unloading their guns,
hugging Mexicans
who jump
the Rio Grande ;
it’s Trump
declining the
Presidency, selling
all his assets
and giving billions
to every women’s
shelter in sight ;
it’s Israelis
singing the songs of
Palestine,
vacating
the West Bank,
rebuilding
the homes in Gaza
and reusing
their deadly drones
to deliver food ;
while Kim Jong Un
takes a good long
look in the mirror,
decides to
rearrange
his god-like hair,
don a rainbow shirt
while giving Vladimir
a call, asking him
to call off
all his soldiers,
beg Zelenskyy
for forgiveness,
offer trillions
in reparations ;
and in an alley
of urban blight,
Bezos carries beggars
to his mansion,
Elon giving chase,
offering rocket
trips to space—
free of charge,
saying love has
never looked better
from our bleeding ,
cobalt sky.
