The Lord and Lady Airhead-Jones

Swim naked in the sea;

The last remaining patriot

Is hanging from a tree,

And doubters laugh at the idea

That this land could be free.

Old soldiers in the nursing home

Binge out on TV dross,

While brass behind the bunker’s door

Will not admit their loss,

And the well-heeled party members

Could scarcely give a toss.

He does not wear life

As life should be worn,

And seems not to think

That we should be kind,

That people need hope,

That honesty wins

Over packs of lies.

And take forward a great nation.

For spiteful, ugly ideas tread

Upon Washington’s hallowed ground.

The politics of angry lies

Risks engulfing all around.

That the other side will get more.

Our democracy is sacred,

To say otherwise is a sin;

So I will accept the verdict,

Provided, of course, that I win!

If I should lose, I will cry foul,

Alleging there was massive fraud;

I don’t need any evidence –
