Too Much and Never Enough
Covid 45’s family
lore reveals
young Donald
acting up
at dinner table
earning a
mashed potato
bowl dousing
from older
brother Fred
a person perceived
as inferior by
young Donald
To be made the object
of derision
still a sore point
66 years later
Still reacts to
criticism with
defensive posture:
hunched shoulders,
crossed, clenched arms,
hurt child scowl,
All too familiar to us
who have seen
way too much of
his face
