day TWO HUNDRED and NINETY


Forget It

While Pussy-Grabber-in-Chief
floods cyberspace
with insane Tourette tweets,
spineless legislators
deconstruct federal government,
pander to neo-nazis,
conspiracy nut jobs.

Critical thinking and civility
succumb within the gas chambers
of faux Fox news
under leadership
of smug white male harassers
bankrolled by rich bottom feeders.

Forget an era of tolerance,
diversity, social justice.
Rabid reactionaries have
staged a successful coup.
The American Dream
is officially over.

--Jennifer Lagier
