RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: AMERICAN DEMOCRACY
The Greatness of the Don
No one but the Don
Could have proven with such certainty
The abject failure of public education
No one but the Don
The Don and only the Don
Could have demonstrated the failure
Of representative democracy
No one but the Don
A genius in his own mind
Could have proven beyond doubt
The ignorance of the masses
We may point the finger of blame
At a myriad of random factors
A convergence of the planets
An alignment of the stars
The flaws of a two-party system
The folly of the Electoral College
The corruption of the body politick
A spell of mass delusion
Yet the truth remains:
No one but the Don could have
Brought the message home
The choice we now face is whether
To confirm the greatness of the Don
Or return to the greatness of America:
The ideal, the hope, the dream
