lumbering man of lead
grotesquely spray painted gold
selling fascism in the stands
like hot dogs and America
spilling his poison
like ketchup
or someone else's blood
consecrated with Syrian oil
and fear
weakened by a kryptonite truth
like a match to the back of a tick
pulls out pouting
while the enormous crowd
chants HIS Praises™
so all the world can hear
in a spontaneous expression
of patriotism
--Mark A. Fisher
