A Trump In A Teacup
No Pequoad captain he nor China set for sea.
A precedent that he made
four lumps it seemed he’d saved.
One sweetest taste a maid stirred pots of golden haired delight
and serve’s the king of towers right there down upon the rocks bright
and he, great white crown that be, lies pooned a’ railing “see?!
why I no more a house of white for me, no more no more a house of white for me?”
And so glide, in courts by no balls of dance abide
humpbacks proud do swim a Queen to sing their hymn
while she, no crystal glass of glee, when brew of wrath she delivers hot in her stormy cup’s of tea.
About this poem
A stir of the moment thought about a guy who’s got it coming to him.
