my petunias in the back yard
i see my
neighbor
sitting on her deck. she looks
despondent.
hey.
hey, she yells back.
you okay?
yes, she says. i'm okay.
a little sad.
why,
what's up?
well the war is over and now
i don't know
what to do with
my Saturdays.
they even got the hostages
back.
i'm not sure what to protest next.
oh, fiddle dee dee, i tell her.
there's a big
no kings protest next weekend.
that should be fun.
yeah, yeah.
i know.
but i'm starting to think things
over.
maybe he's not so bad
after all.
he's trying to stop crime,
secured the border,
he's rounding up murderers
and rapists,
blowing up drug filled boats
from the cartels,
he's ending
wars, he's keeping dudes
out of women's
sports and bathrooms,
gas is cheaper,
he's all over the place trying
to make this
country better.
maybe i've been wrong.
